Born into a Taekwondo family, Tim Thackrey’s life has always revolved around discipline, resilience, and personal transformation. But his early years as an athlete were anything but golden — until everything clicked. Surrounded by the right people, Tim rose from underdog status to become a USA National Team Member, Olympic Training Center resident, and Pan American Games gold medalist.

After retiring from competition, Tim channeled his energy into building champions — co-founding the performance powerhouse The Juice Compound, where he now helps athletes of all levels unlock their full potential through elite nutrition and mindset coaching.

In this episode, Tim shares:

• How he overcame years of early defeat in Taekwondo

• What it took to reach the Olympic Training Center

• The philosophy behind The Juice Compound

• Why systematic nutrition and support builds winners

• How mindset and lifestyle are as important as performance

Whether you’re an athlete, coach, or entrepreneur — this is a conversation about winning in life, not just in sport.
