Welcome to On My Own Dime with Jason McCormack! I’ll be talking with independent creators from various disciplines about balancing life, best practices, and personal philosophies. Join me in celebrating my guests who fund their creative discipline on their own dime!
Bill Bradley (https://www.epicbillbradley.com/the-process/ ) is an ultra-endurance athlete with events like the 135-mile Bad Water ultramarathon
under his belt. He even went back and completed the double Badwater. Then he completed the quadruple Badwater and is one of only 4 people ever to do it. Bill made 9 attempts at Arrowhead 135. A 135-mile foot race through the snow in subzero temperatures. He is currently preparing for his 6th attempt at the English Channel swim.
Bill’s motto is “Show up and suffer”.
“If you want a big life and you want to achieve some things and inspire other people, you need to go after big goals. And when you go after big goals you can fail. Trust me, I probably have more fails than most people, it doesn’t stop me.”

Christian Campbell
Christian Campbell is my guest today and we are discussing his plans to qualify and compete in the Olympics as a boxer. He is also an active duty officer which leads to some great conversation about all the elements that have come into play as he balances his duties with his passion - our favorite subject here at On My Own Dime!
We identify some key components of adversity in any pursuit: hard work is not an entitlement to success, recognizing controllable elements when planning, and accepting the risk of uncontrollable elements when executing a plan.
Christian sparred with UFC Champion Nate Diaz during his prep for Jake Paul. He is attending a team training in Australia soon too so this is a very exciting time to speak with him!
