The Heart of a Champion - with Chris Parker (1 #12)
from Wake Up to Real Love · host Dawn Rishárd
Meet Chris Parker, a 2X State High School Wrestling Champion who was nationally ranked, went from being on top of the world to not knowing where he was or how he got there. After struggling with addictions in his short-lived college career, see how Chris fought his way back up to the top to become a mentor (like the one he admired in High School) and to help other grapplers (wrestlers, jiu-jitsu, and judo martial artists) learn how to create their own “team” by accepting themselves and honoring their hearts. Chris uses the wisdom and skills he learned in wrestling and the martial arts, his passion, and his commitment, to help others climb up off the mat and into the Championship arena again. Chris has transformed himself and his relationships into connections that honor and value his Authentic Self and Spirit, that of a True Champion, on and off the mat.
