1:07:47Now PlayingOlympic champion. Global icon. And then… nothing.
Apolo Ohno spent his entire life training for one thing - winning gold. He became the most decorated Winter Olympian in U.S. history, chasing perfection at all costs. But when the spotlight faded and the podium disappeared, he faced a battle far tougher than any race: Who was he without the sport?
In this raw and honest conversation, Apolo opens up about the identity crisis that hit after retirement, the role of ego in driving success - and destroying it - and the painful process of starting over from scratch.
This isn’t just about sport. It’s about life after the thing you thought defined you. It’s about resilience, reinvention, and the ongoing journey of self-discovery.
Feeling stuck? If you need help getting out of your rut, Will can help - head to willnotfear.com to learn more about his coaching to get you off the hamster wheel.
