What Harry Garside learned from failure

KICPOD - A podcast by LiSTNR

What if the worst case scenario happened? What if you set a goal, threw everything at it, told the world for years that you were going to achieve it…and then you didn’t? Australian boxer, Harry Garside, spent years telling the world (and himself) that he would win a gold medal at the Paris Olympics. He came home without the gold medal, but in the 20 years he spent trying to achieve his goal, he became friends with himself, which to Harry is more valuable than any medal. Trigger: this episode mentions suicide & suicidal ideation. If you, or someone you know is struggling, Lifeline is available 24 hours a day on 13 11 14. In this episode Harry sits down with Steph & Laura to debrief how he is feeling post-Olympics, the importance of feeling the failure, his purpose, what his next goal is, and what he is learning from putting himself through an uncomfortable challenge every month for the past five years.
