Kerry Rhodes
Kerry Rhodes, first and foremost a human and artist, is also a former NFL All-Pro football star who played for the New York Jets and Arizona Cardinals. Since retirement, he’s explored the arts of entertainment and gained success as an actor, producer, writer, and musician. The transition and achievements weren’t without hardships. At one point, bouts of depression and the sense of loneliness started to take over. While navigating through that journey, he found healing through alternative methods such as ayahuasca, a plant medicine that changed his life forever. Kerry was guided within and moved to evolve into the best man he could be daily and to be a champion of compassion, not only for himself but for his fellow beings. His mission in life is to be of service and lead with love while creating safe spaces for others dealing with depression and trauma. He believes an open heart, gratitude, and acceptance are the keys to living fully.
