E040 - Pushing Yourself to the Limit with Extreme Marathon Runner Josh Mathe From MD to Entrepreneur with Dr. Pranay Parikh

The skills we learn in sporting activities can translate us into better humans in life, business relationships, and much more. It is a great way to work on ourselves and see what we are made of. There is value in exploring the limits of what we believe we are capable of and finding more about who we are in other areas of life, and sports gives you that opportunity. Josh Mathe, who joins us in this episode, is passionate about the brain and body connection, how endurance sport is critical for life, and how we can work on ourselves in this controlled forum.
