Mike talks about his journey from humble beginnings in urban St. Louis. He grew up one of ten children in a single-parent household. He talks about the work of divine intervention in his life: the opportunity to attend a private school, opportunities related to football, being a Heisman Trophy finalist, and especially reconnecting with his childhood sweetheart who is now his wife of 23 years. We have some very honest conversations about the complexities of fatherhood and the impact of father-daughter relationships. We learn that Mike's greatest challenge at West Point was not on the gridiron or in the classroom - in fact it was the swimming pool.
