Most people see the moment you win. They don’t see what it cost.In this conversation, I sit down with Ashton Lunt—national champion in javelin, former BYU athlete, and someone who knows what it means to suffer for a dream. We talk about what it really takes to become elite. From early mornings feeding pigs before lifting sessions, to throwing a javelin with a torn rotator cuff, Ashton’s journey isn’t one of overnight success—it’s a decade-long lesson in consistency, grit, and refusing to quit when everything inside you says to.She opens up about injury setbacks, mental health battles, and the emotional toll of elite athletics. But she also shares what pulled her through: her faith, her family, and a relentless inner voice that said, “I’m not done yet.”This is not just an athlete’s story—it’s a story about identity, about rebuilding from the ground up, and about showing up even when no one is watching.Key Takeaways:Persistence beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard—Ashton’s story is living proof.Mental health must be trained like a muscle—her recovery and perspective offer practical tools and emotional insight.Winning isn't just physical—Ashton’s success came from healing her mindset, redefining her “why,” and learning when to push and when to pull back.–––––––––––––––––-Website: Keepgettingafterit.comFollow on X: @bcrossellSubscribe on YouTube: @gettingafteritpodcastFollow on Instagram: @bcrossellFollow on TikTok: gettingafterit_podcastI hope today’s episode sparked something within you to pursue your dreams and unlock your true potential.
