Just days before the NFL Draft, Marilyn sits down with someone she’s known his entire life: her son, JT Byrne.This is a moment years in the making. But what you’ll hear in this conversation isn’t just about football. It’s about the work behind the dream, the discipline no one sees, and the kind of integrity that’s built long before the moment ever arrives.JT shares what it means to truly discover who you are, how to stay grounded in the face of pressure, and why the work you do when no one’s watching is what ultimately defines you.Together, they reflect on the role of family, the lessons learned through adversity, and the importance of becoming someone you’re proud to be— on and off the field.As JT prepares for the 2026 NFL Draft, this conversation is a reminder that success isn’t just about where you end up. It’s about who you become along the way, and who you share that moment with.__________Connect with Marilyn and be a part of the conversation in the I Choose Happy private Facebook group.
