NZ’s Greatest Multisport Athlete: Steve Gurney on Coast to Coast Glory & Near Death Experiences
Episode 233
Published 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
Steve Gurney is one of the greatest multisport athletes New Zealand has ever produced - but this podcast is about so much more than racing.
In this episode, Steve takes us far beyond the finish line.
We explore:
- Why winning 9 Coast to Coast titles didn’t bring him peace
- The childhood trauma that lit his fire
- How a near-death illness nearly ended everything
- His struggles with depression and identity
- Deep work on mental rewiring through NLP
- Navigating masculinity, aging and purpose after sport
- Stories from Dancing With the Stars, full-body waxing and being naked on Breakfast TV
- And what keeps him emotionally moved at the Coast to Coast finish line to this day
This is a masterclass in introspection, reinvention, and the quiet pursuit of peace - from someone who has truly lived multiple lives.
