Olympic Medalist Apolo Ohno Reveals How to Achieve in Tough Times

In an exclusive interview on The Brian Buffini Show, most decorated U.S. Winter Olympian Apolo Ohno shares how to achieve at the highest level and refocus after a major life change.

CARLSBAD, Calif. (May 12, 2020) — Real estate leader Brian Buffini interviewed Apolo Ohno, the most decorated U.S. Winter Olympian of all time, on the latest episode of The Brian Buffini Show podcast. In the exclusive interview, Ohno shared how he developed his talent over time and what it was like to reinvent himself after his retirement. The episode is part of a series from The Brian Buffini Show to bring hope and inspiration to millions of listeners worldwide as they navigate life during the COVID-19 pandemic.  

In this interview, Ohno described his love for speed skating, as well as a commitment to training and a drive for winning. He touches upon the heartbreak many athletes experienced when they found out the 2020 Olympics were cancelled, and how we can learn from and adapt to unexpected challenges. He has a strong message for anyone dealing with hardship: “Believe in yourself. Believe in your path. Believe that you can rebound from anything.”

Real estate leader and master motivator Brian Buffini shared his perspective on what it takes to tap into your potential and turn things around in tough times. The bottom line, he says, is “what makes an Olympian, what makes a very successful person, is a level of commitment where you’re all-in.”

Apolo Ohno remains the most decorated U.S. Winter Olympian to date. He received his first major win in speed skating when he was just 14 years old, competing at the US Championships. After that, he went on to compete at the 2002, 2006 and 2010 winter games, medaling eight times. Today, he remains involved with the Olympics as an analyst, commentator and global ambassador. Ohno has also emerged as a major force in leadership training, teaching others to succeed at their highest level.
