In 1936, the world gathered under banners of superiority and hate at the 1936 Summer Olympics. One man stepped onto the track, not just as an athlete, but as a statement.
This episode of What’s Your Goliath? tells the story of Jesse Owens, a sharecropper’s son who outran racism, defied propaganda, and shattered the myth of Aryan supremacy in front of Adolf Hitler and the world.
Four gold medals.
Four world records.
One undeniable truth: excellence exposes lies.
But this isn’t just about medals. It’s about overcoming the systems that try to define you, the voices that try to shrink you, and the fear that whispers you’re not enough. Jesse Owens didn’t just defeat competitors, he defeated a narrative designed to erase him.
His victory reminds us: you don’t argue with hate; you outrun it.
If you’ve ever felt underestimated, overlooked, or boxed in by someone else’s expectations, this episode is for you. Because sometimes your Goliath isn’t a person; it’s a belief system. And sometimes the greatest protest is performance.
This is about courage under pressure.
This is about dignity under fire.
This is about running your race when the world hopes you fall.
What’s Your Goliath?
Change Your Thinking. Change Yourself. Change Your World. Defy Logic.
