NFL Hall of Famer Curtis Martin shares the raw truth behind his legendary career: he never really loved football. In this powerful conversation, Curtis opens up about surviving extreme childhood violence in Pittsburgh, having a gun held to his head, nearly being killed by a gang, and finding his grandmother brutally murdered. Despite rushing for over 14,000 yards and becoming the sixth all-time leading rusher in NFL history, Curtis reveals that football was simply a vehicle for a deeper purpose, and his greatest accomplishment had nothing to do with the game.

This is one of the most vulnerable and honest conversations you'll ever hear from a professional athlete. Curtis discusses the abuse his mother endured, how he became "the man of the house" at age four, and the moment he made a deal with God at 20 years old, convinced he wouldn't live past 21. He shares the extraordinary story of helping his mother forgive his father after 22 years of bitterness, playing through career-threatening injuries that doctors said should have ended his seasons, and why consistency, not talent, became his superpower.

Tim Green and his son Troy explore how Curtis navigated a world where nearly 30 of his close friends were murdered before he graduated high school, how Bill Parcells became his first positive male role model, and why Curtis set out to finish his career with "a name worth more than the money I made." From his childhood survival tactics (paying for his own babysitter at age seven) to his current business ventures and philanthropic mission, Curtis reveals what it truly means to live with purpose, conquer fear, and die empty.

If you've ever struggled with forgiveness, felt trapped by your circumstances, or wondered how to turn pain into purpose, this conversation will change your perspective on what's possible.
