Billy Monger has been through a lot of things already: racing prodigy, double amputee, Formula 1 pundit, world-record-breaking Ironman and now a Paralympic hope for LA 2028.
In this episode, Jan and Billy talk about what it really means to reinvent yourself when life doesn’t give you a choice. Billy opens up about going from shy kid to “inspiration” overnight after his accident, why he hated that word at first, and how he learned to live with other people’s expectations without letting them define him.
They dive into: swapping milliseconds in a race car for 14 hours alone with your thoughts in Kona, breaking world records with zero Ironman experience and why Billy would rather fail going for gold than play it safe. Plus: how he protects his small circle, what his eight-year-old self would think of him now and why every six-week test session still makes him “go mental” in the best way.
