Adrian Colbert’s recent experience with Aaron Rodgers on an ayahuasca retreat in Costa Rica has indeed been life-changing for the former NFL defensive back. Colbert shared with TMZ Live that the retreat, which also included Jordan Poyer and others, helped him shift his mindset from being motivated by anger and a need to prove others wrong to a more peaceful place rooted in love. He credits Rodgers’ guidance during the retreat for teaching him how to “surrender” and let go of past negativity.
This journey was featured in Rodgers’ new Netflix documentary Aaron Rodgers: Enigma, which premiered on December 17, 2024. The retreat was a deep spiritual experience, with the NFL players embracing the challenge of the ayahuasca journey. Colbert mentioned that his teammates have been more curious than judgmental about his transformation, and he’s found positive reception from them since returning.
Rodgers, known for his rivalry with the Chicago Bears as a longtime Green Bay Packers quarterback, seems to have had a profound impact on Colbert during this transformative experience.
