Ep 28 - Chris Boettcher - Lines Crossed Navigating The Intentional Life
-
- Self-Improvement
What does it take to push, really push, your body to its absolute limits? Growing up I was an athlete and played all of the main sports. Later in life I joined the military and met all of the physical requirements for the worlds greatest military. I was even a certified CrossFit "trainer" for a time; but did I really know what it was like to push my body past limits that defy every red flag your body gives you when the limits you've taken it to are being surpassed?
Chris Boettcher is a man that knows the answer to this question. He's spent over a decade competing in one of the most grueling competitions the world has to offer. He has done this consistently for over a decade. See, Chris is an Iron Man. Multiple times through.
But his podcast was not as much about being a competitor in that competition and more about being a man that stands for his morals, stands for himself, stands for his family and does so with passion, compassion, grace, humility and a quiet dogged determination unlike anything I've ever seen.
Chris breaks down his journey that took him from first deciding to compete in Iron Man and how that obsession cost him. He speaks on the revelations that doing so has taught him on fatherhood, being a husband and, overall, how to stand up for his beliefs. Even with the accomplishments, he is not done. Still striding, still working to become the best version of himself for himself, but for those he is in charge of and a family he won't fail to help flourish.
Tune in - this is a podcast I felt honored to be able to produce.
