This is The Do It For Yourself Podcast. Each week I sit down with someone who is doing it for themselves and chasing a dream they just couldn’t suppress. This is often speakers, entrepreneurs, or athletes. They all share one thing in common, they are overcoming challenges and never giving up. Someone who is Doing It For Themselves is not selfish in their pursuit, they are simply chasing a dream or working towards a goal because it is something THEY want to do. They are not forging down a path because society or someone is telling them it’s what they should be doing. My Guest this week is Conor Bollinger. Conor is a competitive triathlete racing at a very high level. Conor has competed in the world championships for the Half Ironman distance and also as part of Team USA in the Olympic Distance. Conor was playing sports as a kid but it wasn't until young adulthood after making some decisions as a college student that he really began to take a step back and become selfish. Conor became selfish in a way to take care of himself, making changes that he knew he needed to make to get better. Through these changes, Conor found triathlon and a love was born. This is a great insight into the guy we see on Instagram, giving tips of the day, buying massive tubs of almond butter and block updates. I really enjoyed this conversation with Conor and I hope you do too. Conor's Instagram Do It For Yourself Instagram
