15. How to Overcome Your Fears｜Sugar Ray Leonard
01:15:46 Share

Sugar Ray Leonard, one of the greatest sports icons alive, joins us on Growth Minds today. 

To be honest, I didn't know quite what to expect in this interview because my boxing knowledge is comparable to cooking skills - minimal at best.

The good news for me and you, Ray shared valuable insights and stories that apply to every aspect of our lives.

I learned a lot myself about what it takes to overcome fear and anxiety, the importance asking for help, when your back is against the wall, and most importantly, what it takes to be an exceptional human being.

He also shares fascinating stories on his meeting with Nelson Mandela, the close relationship he had with Muhammad Ali and what he learned from him, how he fought through his internal doubts and struggles at the top of his career, and much more.

What surprised me about Ray was how open he was about his life - from his drug addiction, being sexually molested as a child, and the doubts he had throughout his career. Very appreciative of him for being so genuine with his presence.

I hope you enjoy this conversation with Sugar Ray Leonard and I.
