Marc Mero is a former boxer and wrestler. He’s traveled the world and wrestled in the WWF and the WCW. He lived the life of the rich and famous.
After years of wrestling, boxing and nearly overdosing on drugs several times, Mero cleaned up his act and devoted his life to working with youth.
He crated the nonprofit Champions of Choice. The program “empowers people of all ages and walks of life to make positive choices that lead to a more fulfilled life.”
He speaks at conferences and schools. One school speech that he gave bought the entire audience to tears. In it, he lectures on valuing what truly matters in life.
Watch the inspirational speech below.
