Hard as it is to believe sometimes, there is life beyond the Salesforce ecosystem, and we’re talking about it this week! To celebrate our last episode of 2022, we’re taking a step back and looking at the bigger picture with super special guest Eric Wood, Buffalo Bills Radio Network color commentator, podcaster, and author of Tackle What’s Next. Eric gets frank about the mindset it took to re-envision and reshape his goals after sustaining a football career-ending neck injury in 2017, shares advice for professionals venturing into uncharted territory, and of course — talks Bills vs. Bengals ahead of next week’s game in Cincinnati. And importantly: Would Wild Mike’s or Chandler’s chicken wings hold up to the Buffalo, NY standard of crispy, zingy excellence?
