What does it take to turn personal pain into purpose? In this episode of Pushing Horizons, we sit down with an athlete who wasn’t prepared for the Ironman or ultras, but chose to do them anyway, and in the process discovered what’s possible when you go all in. His story is one of resilience, community, and finding strength where most would quit.

Through raw honesty, passion, and an unstoppable mindset, he shares how endurance sports became more than just races, they became a way to raise money, help others, and honor a deeper purpose.

If you’ve ever doubted what you’re capable of, this conversation will light a fire in you.
