Today, I had the honor of sitting down with a true friend and inspiration, Ivan Thamma. Ivan is the embodiment of what it means to be an Atlas-inspired athlete. He has forged his own path through adversity, like a diamond cut from the rough, rising to the top of his game. We delve into his childhood, where he shares stories of his early struggles and how they shaped him into the determined and resilient person he is today. Despite being on a journey of countless accomplishments, Ivan humbly touches on just a few. His story is a testament to the fact that with hard work, perseverance, and a never-say-die attitude, anyone can overcome any obstacle and come out victorious.

Furthermore, Ivan shares his recent experience traveling with world No 48 on the ATP tour, Jenson Brooksby, who is a rising star in the world of tennis. He talks about Jenson's unwavering work ethic and indomitable mental fortitude, which is like a shield against defeat. Ivan's insights on Jenson's mindset are not only enlightening but also serve as a valuable lesson for young athletes who wish to follow in their footsteps.

This podcast episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to be inspired, motivated and learn from one of the best. Ivan's story is an anthem for anyone who has ever felt like they were up against insurmountable odds and how to rise above them.
