Even as a journalist it's not everyday you get to interview an Olympian... let alone a three time Olympian, two time silver medal winning Olympian, but that is the situation I found myself in recently! I came away from my interview with Juan Miguel Moreno empowered to talk to more people who have achieved amazing accomplishments. 

Juan's message of personal excellence can be one that you can learn from whether it's your own professional goals or those that you hope your children will accomplish.  

If you want to hear some advice on achieving personal success- this podcast is for you.

If you want to be a better parent of a student athlete- this podcast is for you.

If you ever wondered what it's like to be an Olympian- this podcast is for you.

If you've ever wondered how to overcome a perceived failure- this podcast is for you!

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

Manti Te'o Drama- Do You Believe Him?

University of Notre Dame Linebacker Manti Te'o is a talented athlete by all accounts. He's one of Hawaii's shining star high school athletes. He has won 8 post season awards and is the most decorated college football of all time.

So, what the heck is going on? Was the pressure and desire to win the Heisman trophy so immense that he actually faked having a girlfriend who died from leukemia to get sympathy? Wow- a lot of people are questioning whether he was duped into thinking he had a girlfriend who died--- or whether he made the whole thing up.

The more and more stories I am seeing on this- I'm thinking he's not looking too credible. Then again- they did trace this all back to a friend of his. Why would his friend do this unless he was working with Te'o? I don't know. In my best Rickie Ricardo voice I say: He's gots some splainin to do!

What do you think? Did Manti Te'o create his girlfriend or is he a victim? Vote on the poll to the right of your screen. Just one click will cast your opinion.
