Protect Your Peace with Trent Shelton
Manage episode 471016944 series 3594695
What happens when your dream becomes your nightmare? For Trent Shelton, reaching the NFL should have been his crowning achievement. Instead, it became the beginning of a painful journey that would ultimately lead to his greatest purpose.
His philosophy of "Protect Your Peace" emerged from a profound encounter during a moment of complete burnout—when a homeless man in a San Francisco alley offered unexpected wisdom about internal versus external wealth.
Trent's approach to life challenges conventional wisdom in refreshing ways. Rather than setting goals, he creates standards to live by. Instead of viewing boundaries as walls, he sees them as bridges that connect him to what truly matters.
Whether you're facing career disappointment, struggling with identity after a major life change, or simply seeking more peace amid chaos, Trent's journey offers both inspiration and practical wisdom. As he reminds us: "You're not here to be perfect; you're here to be purposeful." Don't miss this powerful episode!
