In this episode, legendary powerlifter Ed Coan reflects on the end of his competitive career and the mindset that drove him to greatness. He emphasizes the importance of knowing when to walk away—preferring to quit while on top rather than settle for mediocrity. Ed shares how his meticulously planned training was solely for himself, unimpacted by sponsors or outside pressures, and discusses the pivotal role that purpose and a clear "why" played in his journey. As he navigates life after competition, Ed reveals the challenges he faced without that driving force and highlights the potential for growth that everyone possesses when they have clear goals. He also underscores the significance of surrounding oneself with the right people, illustrating how a supportive environment can elevate success and help push boundaries.
