Episode highlights:

“It might sound sadistic, but I knew the ultra marathon would involve a lot of suffering, but I’d come out the other side having learned a hell of a lot. I was there for the growth.” - 2:30 - Dave Callan

“From a personal standpoint, the choices that I now make are far more balanced, less emotional, less led from impressions and feelings, and more a balance between facts and truths, and using my feelings and impressions to guide me, but not necessarily to make impulse, rash decisions where it's not going to serve me. ” - 16:50 - Dave Callan

“It’s difficult to control the thoughts coming into your head, but if you can feed the thoughts that serve you and deal with negative thoughts proactively, that’s part of mastering your mind.” - 26:30 - Dave Callan

“My alcohol-free journey began in 2018. I’d had enough, it was just holding me back.” - 40:00 - Dave Callan

“Surrounding yourself with the right people is really, really key to elevating your own performance. So make sure that you're surrounding yourself with propellers and not anchors in your life.” - 48:45 - Dave Callan
