This theater that we’re sitting in today is in my hometown. I’m performing this play in a couple of days and Dawn is producing it. It’s a fundraiser for my kids’ school. What’s so funny about this is that the first 10 or 12 years we performed this play in New York and all over […]

How do you deal with heartbreak over something you’ve trained to be the best in the world at and now it’s over? You have a knee surgery or an injury and your dream is taken away from you. That happens to a lot of us—it’ll happen to all of us at some point. How do […]

Welcome to my office. When people come to see me in my office, they ask a lot of questions and you’re going to see why in just a minute. When you enter my office, it is a place where I want to be creative. I want you to think about this for your own offices. […]

One of the first questions that I get, when anybody approaches me, and I get this question all the time, so I want to answer it here on this video. It’s maybe controversial to you.

I was once giving a speech, it wasn’t long ago, in the last year, and I was telling my story. This guy came up to me after I got off stage, who turns out to be the head of the Harvard Brain Institute. He was a speaker at the event too. He says, “Bo, excuse […]
