The Athletic Philosopher Podcast - Episode 34 Breaking an ’Unbreakable’ Record in Sports

I'm a GIANT ice hockey fan and a couple of gigantic records have fallen in the past few weeks that made me want to reflect on the meaning of breaking through in sports.

I want us to understand how to understand these records so we can leverage the moment we witness athletic perfection in an elite athlete to breakthrough in our own lives.
