Summary

In addition to breaking ten world records, Colin O’Brady’s feats include the world’s first solo, unsupported, and fully human-powered crossing of Antarctica, speed records for the Explorers Grand Slam and the Seven Summits, and the first human-powered ocean row across Drake Passage. Would you be surprised to hear he’s a three on the Enneagram?

But as he grows older, his approach to achieving his goals is changing. “It's not the same burning desire, like deep in my bones,” says Colin. Is he losing his “three-ness” or is there something deeper going on here?

On this episode of Typology, we explore the ways our approach to goals, and the need to achieve, can evolve over time.

Colin O’Brady is a ten-time world record breaking explorer, speaker, entrepreneur, and expert on mindset. Colin’s highly publicized expeditions have been followed by millions and his work has been featured by The New York Times, The Tonight Show, The Joe Rogan Experience, and The Today Show. He is the author of The New York Times bestseller The Impossible First and now The 12-Hour Walk: Invest One Day, Conquer Your Mind, and Unlock Your Best Life (Scribner; August 2nd).
