You can’t just wake up one day, snap your fingers, and then go pick up a gold medal - becoming an Olympic champion at anything takes real time, energy, and sacrifice. Very few people commit themselves to that pursuit and even fewer achieve their dreams. Well, today, we have a U.S. Olympian with us to talk about the ups and downs of being a world class athlete.
Kate Grace qualified for the 2016 Olympics by winning the Women’s 800-meters at this year’s U.S. Olympic Trials and then reached the final of the 800-meters at the Olympics. Oh yeah! And she’s also my first daughter and I was able to travel to Rio and see her compete in an Olympic Final!

A few years ago I was at a wedding in Los Angeles, and one of the guests happened to be Lisa Kudrow who played Phoebe on the hit television series Friends. We were chatting about our professional and personal lives, and I was telling her about coming back from Chicago where I’d been shooting a video with today’s guest, Dr. Joe Mercola, about his newest type of stretching. As soon as I mentioned his name, everyone around me began asking me question after question about Joe and his philosophies. Just as there are people in the music business who are known by a single name - Madonna, Prince - in the world of health and wellness, there’s Mercola.
Dr. Mercola is a three time New York Times bestselling author, and he’s been at the forefront of awaking the nation to the dangers of GMOs in our food. He’s leading the charge in natural health with the number one most visited health website, mercola.com, with almost 10 million unique visitors every month. He’s timeless, fearless, and authentic through and through.
