He lost in the first round at the Olympics, on camera, and cried. Now he’s chasing a medal with nothing left to lose.
Josh Katz is no stranger to pain. After reconstructive knee surgery and ten months away from competition, he’s back, mentally sharper, emotionally lighter, and physically primed. But this episode isn't just about rehab and comeback. It’s a raw dive into what it really costs to pursue greatness. Josh opens up about missing life outside the mat, building a mentorship business with his brother, and why hard work isn’t enough to guarantee success. This isn’t inspiration. It’s reality.
Key Episode Highlights:
• Why losing early at the Olympics might’ve saved his career
• How rehab forced him to face what he’d sacrificed, and what he wanted back
• The brutal truth about effort: “Working hard is the bare minimum”
• Inside the subjective politics of Olympic selection
• Why some athletes thrive without goals, and others can’t survive without them
• The surprising camaraderie inside an individual combat sport
• What makes a coach actually credible (hint: not medals)
• Why he avoids coaching elite athletes… for now
• Starting a business to teach resilience, while still chasing his own
• The most honest answer he gives students chasing “impossible” dreams
