"#010 - Daniel Kowalski: Olympic Medals, Retirement & Coming Out on your own terms..."
***
On today’s show I sit down with Daniel Kowalski, a multiple medallist at the Olympics and World Championships, who was notably the first man in 92 years to earn medals in 200, 400 and 1500m Freestyle. We cover some of the most iconic Olympics ever in Atlanta 1996 and Sydney in 2000, to his experiences in retirement and the lessons he learnt in coming out as a gay man after his career. Daniel’s story of success, resilience and refreshing honesty truly show the great person he is. This episode is a must listen! I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did, let’s do it!
