#62 - Isaac Homer - Letting Go, Proving Yourself Right, & Holding Yourself To A High Standard.

Today’s conversation is with the LEGEND, Isaac Homer who is wise beyond his years. We connected through Isaac being on the University of Portland Men’s Soccer team. We have had a ton of walks and talks recently so we decided to sit down and record one. This one will be special to reflect on as Isaac will have ACL surgery at the end of May.

We discuss letting go, boundaries, bouncing out of bad moments, growth, self-improvement purgatory, and more…

Life is all about discovering the people you can have incredible conversations with and Isaac is one of them. I am so grateful for the opportunity to coach him and have real honest conversations.
