Olympian Caroline Burckle On The Power Of Vulnerability

Olympian Caroline Burckle On The Power Of Vulnerability

Becoming an Olympic medalist doesn’t tell the story. It wasn’t until the klieg lights dimmed that she was compelled to meet herself. The inner journey that ensued forged the amazing person she’s now become. Meet Caroline Burckle. Friends call her Burks. A fellow former competitive swimmer, today’s guest is a 23-time All American and 2-time NCAA Champion. In 2008, she was crowned NCAA Female Swimmer of the Year in recognition of breaking Janet Evans’ legendary 500 freestyle NCAA record—a seemingly impossible task and the oldest record on the books at the time. Later that same year, Caroline would qualify for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, where she won bronze as a member of the women’s 4×200 freestyle relay. More interesting however, and certainly more relatable, is Caroline’s path post-swimming. A close cousin to my conversations with Olympians Anthony Ervin, Apolo Ohno and John Moffet, hers is a hard-wrought journey of self-discovery shrouded in institutional neglect and even, at times, abuse. Let’s just say she weathered some shit. But she faced it. She showed up and did the work. And she emerged at peace with her past and her self—now hellbent on helping forge healthier lives for the next generation of Olympians. Beyond the play-by-play of Caroline’s storied career, her experiences as a young swimmer, and what it was like to stand on the Olympic podium, this is a conversation about the psychological struggles she faced as a prodigious athlete. Her battle with depression. And her familiar addiction to people-pleasing. It’s also an alarming exposé on the harmful paradigms perpetuated by calcified athletic institutions—and what we must be done to better support the next generation of Olympians. But more than anything, this is a playbook on how to find power in vulnerability. How to listen to your body. And most importantly, how to use your voice. One of my very favorite people, Burks and I are buddies going back several years. A powerhouse and a humble empath, her energy is infectious. And I’m honored to share her story with you today. The visually inclined can watch our exchange on YouTube. And as always, the podcast streams wild and free on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. May her words inspire you to seek own your truth. To ask for help. Lean into vulnerability. And never stop learning. P.S.

ROLL ON: American Tiger, Adventures Abroad, & The Art of Showing Up

Roll On is here! Adam Skolnick and I catch up after a month of nonstop travel. Tokyo for the Track & Field World Championships, New York, and DC multiple times. Big news: Adam announces his debut novel American Tiger—20 years in the making, with the audiobook recorded right here in our studio. Also on tap: my family crisis that required an Ocean's 11-style heist, accidentally crashing the wrong high school reunion, Alex Honnold scaling skyscrapers live on Netflix, the Norwegians sweeping Ironman Nice, and Sean Penn's performance in “One Battle After Another." I get candid about what it means to show up when every button you have is being pushed, generational trauma, and practicing unconditional love. Buckle up!

Psychotherapist John W. Price Unpacks Ancient Wisdom For Modern Healing

Dr. John Price is a depth psychotherapist and co-founder of The Center for Healing Arts & Sciences. This conversation explores why men have 50% fewer friends than twenty years ago, the crisis of modern masculinity, shadow work, and John's concept of "sacred refusal" —honoring the adaptations that once saved us but now destroy us. We discuss why suffering is initiation not pathology, the absence of rites of passage, and how the things we find most uncomfortable often reveal our deepest truths. John turns the therapeutic lens on me throughout—a benign adversary calling out my own resistance to vulnerability. This is medicine for anyone feeling trapped by their current circumstances. Enjoy!

Women's Health Compilation: Leading Experts On All Things Estrogen, Menopause, Fertility, & The Diet That Changes Everything

This Women's Health and Hormones Compilation explores how estrogen regulates brain function, why 86% of mothers lose core strength with no recovery protocol, and the critical timing window for hormone therapy. Featured experts include Dr. Lisa Mosconi (ep. 819), Dr. Robin Berzin (ep. 873), Dr. Neal Barnard (ep. 492), Dr. Gemma Newman (ep. 678), and Dr. Kyle Gillett (ep. 720). We discuss fat cells as hormone producers, the 1993 federal mandate for women's inclusion in research, and the two transformations unique to women—childbirth and menopause. Along the way, we uncover how dietary changes prevented one woman's hysterectomy and reversed another's endometriosis. This is essential listening for understanding women's health. Enjoy!

Olympic Legend Dara Torres: Age-Defying Fitness, Eating Disorders & Protecting The Next Generation of Gold Medal Talent

Dara Torres is a 5-time Olympian, 12-time Olympic medalist, and the oldest swimmer to ever win an Olympic medal at age 41. We explore how she broke American records two years after giving birth, trained only five days a week while beating teenagers, and missed her sixth Olympics by nine-hundredths of a second. We discuss her revolutionary recovery-focused training, battles with bulimia, and why she still can't turn off the competitive switch at 58. Most surprising? The swimming world's indifference to her game-changing methods. Dara redefined athletic longevity. This conversation unpacks how. Enjoy!
