Exceeding Expectations
by Michael Gowen
In this podcast I explore the freedom of never setting limits on yourself. I start this podcast with a series following my own personal journey as I return to competitive college wrestling while balancing my job as a husband and physical therapist. I then dive into the deep emotional and psychological benefits of self-acceptance and finding your purpose. The focus of this podcast is on exceeding your own expectations of yourself or that others may have placed on you. I will invite guests that either exemplify this or are on this journey. Never stop exceeding expectations!Gmail:michaelgowendpt
