In this episode of Just Getting Started, I sit down with 7× Kendama world champion Nick Gallagher - the man many consider the GOAT of his sport. We dive into what Kendama really is, how an 11-year-old in Seattle got hooked on a wooden toy, and the insane level of precision, practice and mindset it took to reach the very top.But this isn’t just a story about a niche Japanese skill toy. Nick opens up about the moment he realised being world champion wasn’t giving him purpose anymore, nearly going broke trying to build a business, walking away from his “dream job” in Japan, and rebuilding his life as a coach. We talk addictive personalities, identity, love, long-distance marriage, and what it actually takes to become “the GOAT” at anything - sport, business, or life.If you’ve ever wondered “Is this it?” even when things look good on the outside, this conversation will hit home.Enjoy! #NickGallagher #Kendama #KendamaChampion #WorldChampion #KendamaGOAT #JapanLife #JapaneseCulture #SkillSports #Mindset #PeakPerformance #Mastery #Obsession #Discipline #Resilience #IdentityShift #FindingPurpose
