Goals give us direction—but they also test us. They show up on the good days, and they really matter on the hard ones. Goals aren’t just about winning medals or hitting milestones; they’re about learning how to keep moving forward when motivation dips, plans change, or life throws a curveball.
In this series, we DROP IN with athletes, Olympians, and changemakers to unpack how goals are set, reset, and sometimes completely rewritten. From small daily habits to big, career-defining dreams, these conversations explore what it really takes to stay focused, stay patient, and keep going—one goal at a time.

DROP IN on Series XV starting Thursdays March 12, 2026.
