Masculinity, medicine, and making the most of setbacks (w/ Michael Klim)

Michael Klim is one of the most physically recognisable athletes in our country. His unmistakable statuesque figure can be spotted from across a footy field, long ways.When you saw him, you’d recognise him instantly - and then think…Hang on, is he walking with a cane? Michael Klim is everything Osher’s podcast is about. He’s a man who, when faced with immense adversity - eventually found his way to acceptance and action. Sure, there were bumps in the road - but it’s important to hear that no success is linear. Michael is a truly joyful man, despite the immense physical challenges he currently faces. Michael’s new book KLIM is out right now, and it is more than a sporting memoir. It’s a courageous look into what it costs to be the best, and what it takes to meet the kind of challenges you and I would never dream of facing - in or out of the pool. ‌ To get exclusive content, get in touch, or ask a question for Monday’s Q&A show - subscribe to the substack: https://oshergunsberg.substack.com/ Hosted on Acast.
