Aggressively Human

Discovering Humanity in the NFL, Reality TV, and Life

By: Steve Wright, Lizzy Wright

Narrated by: Steve Wright

Could Steve Wright navigate the uneasy intersection between aggression and empathy without losing himself? The answer to this question determined the course of his NFL career and his life.

Steve spent over a decade taping his knuckles and preparing for battle with the Cowboys, Colts, and Raiders. It was all part of a day at the office, along with blocking for some of the best in the game, including Tony Dorsett, Bo Jackson, Eric Dickerson, and Marcus Allen. But his journey didn’t begin or end there.

In a world where masculinity is a moving target, Aggressively Human exposes a deeply personal quest to become a healthy, well-adjusted man and fully realized human being. Steve’s experiences as a professional athlete, entrepreneur, reality television contestant, and spiritual seeker deliver an entertaining trial and error guide. It will take you into spaces no camera can go and bring you out in stitches.

Critic reviews

"...about the complexities of masculinity and, more broadly, humanity, written with humor and a passion for life." (Howie Long, Fox Sports Analyst, Pro Football Hall of Fame)

"Steve is so much more than a football player. He's a student of life." (Marcus Allen, Pro Football Hall of Fame)

"A compelling read about the evolution of a man who confronted challenges and came out the other side." (Neil Strauss, Ten-Time New York Times Best-Selling Author)

Was an enjoyable book and life lessons from start to finish.

You will enjoy the “ life journey “ Steve goes through and shares very openly. Steve has many passions , very driven and focused. I can transfer parts to my personal life and business.

It left me surprised, this was not about how to play football, but more so into maintaining passion while living life.

The narrative style with Steve’s voice himself, made me travel into an interestingly unknown world. Very moving in deed.

Wow... What A Life!

Entertaining experiences and stories from someone who re-defined his values in life and gets the most out of every day! An easy read / listen... I suggest increasing to 1.2 or even 1.5 speed.

Great read! Great life lessons!

What a great read! Steve Wright has had an amazing life. He shares his story with transparency, honesty and humility. I enjoyed hearing his stories about playing in the NFL. More than his stories, however, I loved the lessons learned from his journey. His life lessons are valuable to anyone interested in growing and becoming an ever better human being.

A fun, uplifting life story... enjoyed immensely.

Steve takes the listener into his NFL experience and the mind of a professional football player, then describes his life post-NFL in a way that is very entertaining, often humorous and will leave you feeling good due to his positive outlook on life. Highly recommend.
