“I just want to be remembered for being a great human being, we all have different walks we go on, but if I can just be a good person and help others on their journey that’s worth it in the end”
It’s one thing to make your mark on the field of play, but when you can transition into a venture that can help millions of people globally, now you’ve got my interest. Today’s guest, Gus Frerotte, happened to have a 15 year NFL career as a quarterback, and has a long list of accomplishments. But none may stand out as much as the company he is involved with now, and the work they are doing to make an impact within brain health.
“If you’re good at what you do and have a lot of passion, they’re going to find you no matter where you are. I came from a town of 4,000 people and ended up playing 15 years in the NFL.”
Brain health? How on earth can we measure that? Just ask Gus, and he’ll show you how RC21X, and the “Roberto” app will transform how athletes and anyone else who is going through brain trauma or cognitive decline, or are simply curious to know how healthy their brain truly is, can simply spend just a few minutes on the app on your phone or laptop/ desktop, play a few games that measure a variety of data points, and after just a few days you now have a benchmark that you can use going forward, instrumental in showing any doctor where you stand.
“RC21X is a Consumer friendly tool- to gain measurement and knowledge of our brain that can better our health for the future- there is one thing I have never been able to check and thats my brain performance until now. We can impact our children and the world of sports with this tool. We can be proactive.”
In this episode you will be amazed at the level of excitement, interest and passion Gus has for this cause, as he has personally seen the after-effects of a contact sport on the brain, and he can’t wait to get this into the hands of his NFL brethren, and so many other athletes and non-athletes too. Gus and I discuss ways to get more of the word out, and yes, we do talk some football along the way. You’ll enjoy this episode, give it a listen!
