Do Not Let the Old Man In: Robert Stocker on Law, Racing, Reinvention & Refusing to Slow Down | BSPOD | S2 | EP7

In this episode of the Business Speaks Podcast, Kam Sanghai and Cooper Stacey sit down with Robert Stocker — attorney, entrepreneur, endurance athlete, and Bullis Class of ’61 — to unpack a life built on constant reinvention. Robert shares his journey from clerking for a federal chief judge and building his own solo law practice to running marathons, and completing triathlons well into his later decades.The conversation explores discipline, goal setting, aging, and the mindset behind refusing to slow down. Robert opens up about the realities of practicing law today, the psychology of competition, and the moment he realized the limits people place on themselves are often just stories they’ve accepted for too long. From the courtroom to the racetrack, this episode is about pushing past expectations, staying curious, and never “letting the old man in.”
