Life Lessons Danny Wuerffel

On today’s episode we have author, speaker, and Heisman trophy winner Danny Wuerffel on the show to discuss some of the life lessons he’s learned. During his time at the University of Florida (my alma mater), Danny set 17 NCAA records. He was recently inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. After playing in the NFL for multiple seasons, Danny retired to do full-time work with Desire Street Ministries in New Orleans to help revitalize one of America’s most impoverished neighborhoods.
