From the euphoria of the gridiron, to the depths of stress, isolation and depression – and back again.
For as long as he can remember, BJ Daniels ate, slept and breathed football. He became a star quarterback at the University of South Florida and went on to play professionally in the NFL, winning the Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks in 2013.
In many ways, it seemed like BJ was living every athlete’s dream. However, he also saw first-hand the lows that accompany being a football player at the highest level. The mental health struggles both he and his teammates faced – often in silence – have inspired a new passion and purpose in him: to share his story, from setbacks to success, and encourage others to face their wellbeing head-on.
Here, with raw vulnerability, through his own lived experience, BJ explores the importance of resilience, mindset, dedication, passion and perseverance – all of which can help you to rise above your circumstances.
This book embodies BJ’s mission to “Leave No One Behind”, and shows us that, beyond all our obstacles, there’s a life worth living.
