Today’s episode is presented by Old Spice. 

Today is a BIG BIG Pivot and a year in the making...we took the trip to sit with none other than Dwayne The Rock Johnson for a conversation where we just all let our guards down, had some laughs, talked life lessons and shared our experiences and what matters most in our lives. 

Taking a trip down memory lane to what it was like growing up as an only child and having the dreams to play in the NFL one day, The Rock shares with Ryan how he never imagined being where he is today and frankly never wanted this life either, he just had other goals that led him to where he is now. Fitness and being in the gym is an obvious part of The Rock's life, but the motivation is far beyond the physical aspects it provides as he opens up that its symbolic to his relationship with his dad and their time they had when it was just the two of them. 

After heartache and bouts of depression in his younger years and missing out on playing professional football, The Rock shares how getting in the family business of Wrestling saved his life, and years later realized how it saved four generations of the Johnson family. Looking back, The Rock says not making the NFL was the best thing to happen to him and led him on a journey that no one could ever script. Dealing with divorce, loss, heartache, tough times never fell short on him and he still lives with a survival mentality everyday never taking for granted his success and looking to his daughters as his source of pride and happiness. 

The Rock shares how his upbringing and determination to never be broke and always have more than $7 Bucks has fueled his success over the years. Never straying far away from his first love of football, The Rock talks about how ownership of the XFL gave him the opportunity to create opportunities for young men who were just like him shares his first conversation with Roger Goodell and how the league took off in it's first season! From a personal stance, Fred takes the opportunity to express his gratitude to The Rock for his commitment to helping others and for saving his son's football dreams. 

As someone who is a Jack of All Trades, Channing asks The Rock what does he believe he’s the best at? Let's just say the answer has Channing doing his own dance in his seat!!
