Wow! Utterly fascinating. I felt like I was listening to the plot of a movie. So great that Leah Goldstein’s accomplishments and courage is being shared via Rich Roll’s podcast/ video.
Heck, she is tough as nails. Even when she was describing injuries resulting from fall off her bike, I was thinking she is a force to be reckoned with. I haven't really heard of many people with her mental will to return to form but I am beyond impressed with her. Words can't really describe how much. What a life, what an exceptional human being.
Dear Rich, really love the interviews you share with us and have learnt so many lessons from the stories of the amazing humans you introduce us to. But if I can share a thought... as a PhD student for whom this entire intellectual endeavour has been extremely challenging, I crave for some stories of how people like me have turned THEIR pain into fuel. Usually hearing things like, 'turn pain into fuel', some of the first images that the mind conjures up is of, well, of sportswomen/men/them and their achievements. Not to say that their challenges don't include them battling with mental demons. But at times I wish I could see more examples of achievers from non-sports backgrounds, particularly say, from academia, share how their awesome 'workouts' (mental) look like. Not share if I am making lot of sense but I hope you can fathom my thoughts. Thank you always :)
This shows you that when someone wants to do something they do it! “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
Can't believe I've never heard of this woman! Amazing. I think her Very rich cultural background comes into play too, not just her training. Rich you offer THE most inspirational interviews hands down. You patiently and lovingly drill down while creating a very safe space for your guests. I do get the sense you "hold" them. TY, TY, TY for what you do and offer freely.
I'll be turning 53 next month, this amazing woman is so motivating!! I so appreciate your saying that her superpower is her refusal to ever give up. That says that it is a superpower we all can have, if we will choose to have it. Awesome interview, thank you so much!!
I love her "I will show you what I can't do!" attitude. I can relate. Hats off to you Leah...proud Canadian fan of yours right here. Many blessings going forward.
So many accomplishments and so little do people know about her. Saw a facebook post after she won 2021 RAAM and that's when I heard about her the first time. Looking forward to the documentary
She's very strategic, efficient and laser focused and, of course, there's no competing with inner thoughts or her own will. Unwavering and task oriented; her solitary and singular drive is a force to reckon with.
So much about this podcast inspired me as well as stripped away any excuses I’ve had to not make improvements in strength training. I was put on permanent disability years ago and took myself off, choosing health at any cost. It’s worked but I’ve always had disability as an excuse to not push ahead. Not any more! After hearing this story, how could anyone have any excuses at all?!?
Man. She is incredible. Where do you find these people to talk to? I love the way you do your interviews. They are enjoyable to listen to. Funny, compassionate and very interesting.
Fantastic interview. First, I started listening, but it was so powerful that I decided to buy a book, read it and then finish watching the interview. Thank you Rich for introducing Leah. Very inspiring!
I watched this interview and it is very inspering, I do everything to be positive , to better myself , educated at the highest level , driven , focused and determined but how do you deal with Racism. I am of mixed race ( mother white father black ) lived in and out of foster home , look and sound different , even though I spent 99% of my life in england but I am not White . I deal with Racism everyday more so now as an adult , moved to Australia and it is really , really bad . I am so so sad . how can I cope . I try not to think of the negative stuff and stay away from pople .
I think that Australia is one of the most racist country in the world. Been there two times, for months, across the island, and the way Aboriginal people are treated is a real shame. It's THEIR land. Greetings from France.
I finally listened to this interview. In addition to being inspired in many ways, I LOVE that Leah mentioned "Kansas" a dozen times when speaking about RAAM, at least 10 times more than any other location in RAAM. Having crewed for someone who finished RAAM in 2005, I can attest to the fact that wide, flat, halfway-there Kansas is as hard as any part of the race (especially with a headwind!).
Thank you very much for all the work you do with this CZcams channel! I admire your efforts and so grateful to have a chance to plug into all these incredible knowledge you are sharing with us via your unique guests!
Motion and determination- amazing woman!!! She is a power horse overcoming obstacles to reach her goals!!! Appreciate this hearing this - we all have obstacles to overcome. Go for it!!!
Love this interview. Leah Goldstein is so inspiring. Rich Roll has a warm way of interacting with his subject and audience. Keep up the good work Rich Roll, you are at least from this vantage point a wonderful human being.
Wowzers!!! Just listened to this episode again for the second time!!! What amazingly inspiring human beings you both are! Thank you Rich for introducing us to Leah! She is a amazing! Cant wait to read the book and for the doc to be released! ♥️
So inspiring! I’ve worked as a PT with so many who were told at the hospital they would never walk again and guess what, never say never! I think the medical staff just never see the end stages of rehab the only see they beginning and never get to see somebody really, really rehab.
Fantastic interview! Edge of my seat the whole way. Then finally! At 11/2 hour mark we find out she’s been plant based! I figured bug had to hang on to find out. Phew! Glad she didn’t do all that eating meat and cheese! What an amazing lady. Thanks for another amazing interview Rich.
hands down the best podcast episode I've ever seem WOW Leah what an absolute legend. feeling so inspired. and your smile and positive spirit is infectious. Rich Roll the way you steered this interview was fantastic. quality discussion and questions. THANK YOU! 🙌
Rehabbing an injury, riding the trainer, sucking, but can’t quit. No quitting. What’s amazing about the 2021 RAAM is that it wasn’t about who could physically do it better, but who could suffer more.
Great interview. Inspiring stuff. The cycle crash reminds me of jumping the tennis net after two hours of playing. It was concrete and I was 50! I crashed into the net but managed to stumble over and landed on my right knee. I couldn't walk as I had ruptured everything there was to rupture at the hamstring and knee area Just like Leah I refused to believe that I would never play tennis again, let alone walk or run! In 3 years time I had cured myself and in 2009, at the age of 53, went to Thailand and won two tennis trophies: Runners up in both singles and doubles in the 50- 55 age group, at the Asian Open in Pattaya.
I have just started watching this for about 2 min and captured, Leah comes across as very humble, full of energy and so inspiring. What an amazing person. I love people like her but there are a few of them like her in this world. I watched this over and over again, she is amazing.
What an amazing woman! I think the women of today could learn a lot from her fortitude. She doesn't seem strike me as someone who is worried about breaking a nail.
Enjoyed this insight very much . Thank you :) Oh and by the way good luck as you ride the Trans Am bike non stop ( trans am bike race ) as I type . Third right now , 4200 miles zero support . Kudos :)
Thanks for watching! For more on Leah + full show notes go here👉🏾bit.ly/richroll646
Thank you, good sir. I feel like my issues are insurmountable as of late. Running seems to make it all more manageable
Very nice one.Delighted to know she is vegan too.

Simply one of the best, Rich. Time flew by while listening. Leah is one amazing and inspiring woman.

She is really low key. I cant believe there is a story like this that exists. Thanks rich roll for sharing really appreciate it.
Wow!! She is the REAL Wonder Women!! ⭐️🤩 Rich, can you imagine talk with Lea and David Goggings at the same time? This could be amazing.😵

What an inspiring woman! A true master of her reality! Great show. I look forward to her Doc
This shows you that when someone wants to do something they do it!

Leah Goldstein is a legend. If I could emulate a fraction of her grit my life would be made. Thank you so so much for sharing her story.
Rich is very good at laying the timeline out for the listener!
Sure is!
Can't believe I've never heard of this woman! Amazing. I think her Very rich cultural background comes into play too, not just her training.

TY, TY, TY for what you do and offer freely.
One of the most inspirational guest you have had on your podcast! What a Woman! Unbelievable!!
You were the perfect person to interview her, Rich.
Your best podcast yet!!!! Amazing woman and incredible story. What an absolute legend!
I'll be turning 53 next month, this amazing woman is so motivating!!
I so appreciate your saying that her superpower is her refusal to ever give up. That says that it is a superpower we all can have, if we will choose to have it. Awesome interview, thank you so much!!
Thank you Rich and Leah for an absolute riveting couple of hours. I can't wait for the documentary. We build them tough up here in Canada, lol.
I love her "I will show you what I can't do!" attitude. I can relate. Hats off to you Leah...proud Canadian fan of yours right here. Many blessings going forward.

This woman ! OMG ! Beautiful strength and I enjoy her accent “you know”. Thank you for sharing
How am I only knowing about this amazing human now????? What an inspiration.
She raced RAAM when my husband was doing RAW and she was/is a HUGE inspiration to us all! Thank you for having her on the show! more of this!
She's very strategic, efficient and laser focused and, of course, there's no competing with inner thoughts or her own will. Unwavering and task oriented; her solitary and singular drive is a force to reckon with.
I like how Rich is letting his guests interrupt him more. He's getting better at respecting the balance.
Been following him for at least 4-5 years now. Don't ever remember that being an issue.
A lot of times he doesn't listen to what they say though, which is annoying.
@@jinxterx bruh are we listening to the same person? i can think of 20 top-tier podcasters who do this before i'd even think to name rich.
@@LizColville Bro, even Leah noticed it, watch the video.
Wow this woman is amazing. I am inspired. I shall never complain nor quit.
I love how she talks about “the friend thing” like it is a guilty excess.
Really interesting.
Does she have beckwith-wiedemann syndrome? Lol
Out of all the podcast I've listened to, this is the first one I had to watch all the way through. Leah's drive is mind blowing.
Oh my god!! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! What a woman!

Someone should tell her she can't stop climate change or the Great Reset!
Amazing woman and fascinating discussion! 👏
I love this episode ❤!!! How inspiring 🙏👏

Fantastic interview! Edge of my seat the whole way. Then finally! At 11/2 hour mark we find out she’s been plant based! I figured bug had to hang on to find out. Phew! Glad she didn’t do all that eating meat and cheese! What an amazing lady. Thanks for another amazing interview Rich.
Amazing conversation. Inspiring beyond words.
the beard is back! Hell yeah!
Sounds like she's the female David Goggins lol. Can't wait to watch this.

Such. A. Badass!!!!!
This is now my favorite podcast! Leah is truly amazing!!
Wow. What an amazing human being. Thanks.
Rehabbing an injury, riding the trainer, sucking, but can’t quit. No quitting.
What’s amazing about the 2021 RAAM is that it wasn’t about who could physically do it better, but who could suffer more.
Great interview. Inspiring stuff.
The cycle crash reminds me of jumping the tennis net after two hours of playing. It was concrete and I was 50! I crashed into the net but managed to stumble over and landed on my right knee. I couldn't walk as I had ruptured everything there was to rupture at the hamstring and knee area
Just like Leah I refused to believe that I would never play tennis again, let alone walk or run!

Speechless. EPIC 💥❣️
What an amazing woman
enjoyed this conversation :-)
Wow man thank you both.
Perfection when Leah said " Tell your body what it can do !""
So inspirational!
This is good. I want to hear these ultra competitive people talk about their stories.
Wow! Amazing woman indeed! Thank you both for a truly inspiring conversation.
I really love this episode, Rich! Thanks for sharing this to the world 🌱☺️
