Summary

It's not every day you get to sit down with an unparalleled endurance athlete with not one, not two, but FOUR world records, but that's exactly what I did at the end of last year when I chatted with Colin O'Brady - the man who transformed his life after a terrifying trauma to become the first man to trek across Antarctica solo. In this episode he talks about how to Google your dreams (literally), finding strength in hard things, and the life-altering power of a mother's love. You don't wanna miss this one folks!

0:21.0	tangible and tactical advice and inspiring interviews with the same intention.
0:26.1	These are the tools to change your life and your business. This is the Rise Podcast.
0:33.1	I feel like we have to start with how we met. Absolutely. Because I feel like it's
0:46.2	such a very unique way to meet a friend. We were climbing a mountain. We were climbing
