E319. Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable – A Champion’s Mindset with Bob Molle

In this episode, April sits down with Bob Molle—Olympic wrestler, two-time Grey Cup champion, and leadership coach—to explore what it really takes to perform when it matters most. From bouncing back after back surgery to building a consulting empire, Bob reveals how embracing discomfort is the secret weapon behind sustained success. April pushes deep into his mindset—probing for imposter syndrome, fear, and identity loss—but what she uncovers is a man grounded in presence and possibility.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to turn physical and emotional “shock” into transformation

• Why high performers don’t fear failure—they reframe it

• How resilience isn't inherited, it's chosen

• Tools Bob uses to coach elite performers under pressure

• The difference between being average and deciding you’re not

Key Quotes:

“You don’t graduate from hardship—you reframe it.”
“We’re not average. And you don’t have to be either.”
“Shock is the starting point of your evolution.”

Actionable Takeaways:

• Reframe your past losses as learning experiences

• Stay where your feet are—practice being in the moment

• Make the decision today that you are not average

• In shock moments, ask: What is this here to teach me?

• Choose evidence that empowers you, not weakens you

Bob’s story is a lesson in grit, clarity, and redefining what’s possible. Whether you're an athlete, entrepreneur, or just someone standing in your own way, this episode shows what happens when you get comfortable being uncomfortable.
