E102 - Rich Roll: Transform Your Life At Any Age & Awaken Your Hidden Potential

Rich Roll is a podcast host, author, and ultra-marathon athlete who has lived a life of true inner strength, ambition, and purpose. Today, he sits down with André to discuss the foundations for living in harmony with your goals: facing off with adversity, the inner critic, and learning to surrender. He shares his story of overcoming alcoholism, becoming an athlete at age 40, and becoming a world-renowned podcast host. He reveals the power of mastering the mind: whether it be in endurance sports or facing online criticism, the mind can be an incredible tool if we learn how to sharpen it.

This is a deeply inspiring conversation to remind you that you can change your life at ANY age, and the greatness you are destined for is always within you.
