Tom Ryan is the head coach for the Ohio State wrestling team. He's a symbol of resilience and determination in the face of life's most profound challenges, and his message about chosen and unchosen suffering is one that will stick with me forever.
As an elite coach, Tom Ryan has guided the Ohio State wrestling team to greatness, turning young athletes into champions both on and off the mat. His relentless pursuit of excellence has garnered numerous accolades, including a 2015 national championship and the admiration of the wrestling community.
Yet, Tom Ryan's journey is about more than just wrestling triumphs. In a heart-wrenching twist of fate, he experienced the unimaginable loss of his son, Teague, when he was only 5 years old. This devastating event transformed Tom's perspective on life, sending him on a quest to search for a higher purpose in his life.
Tom is an incredible guy, and I am so grateful for his insights and for this conversation with him.
Thank you, Coach.
