About this episode

Tim Ryan, a former Ohio congressman, passionately served in the United States Congress for 20 years and brought back $1 billion to help transform the economic and cultural landscape of northeast Ohio. He talks about family dynamics and finding father figures in his coaches, ways he masked his pain as a child, and how he found healing through breathwork and meditation.
