Jacob Heppner is a CrossFit Games veteran with three top-10 finishes and a career-best finish of sixth overall in 2019. Raised in an agricultural community in San Joaquin Valley, Jacob learned the value of hard work early on. He was homeschooled until high school, where he fell in love with football, and went on to play at Central Methodist University while earning a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics. He was also exposed to CrossFit during this time, then competed in his first Games in 2014 after marrying his wife Kelli. Jacob currently lives with his wife and kids in Basehor, Kansas. 

    In this episode, Jacob and our host Adam Russell talk about the value of doing hard things on a daily basis, how our dreams shift over time, and finding joy and opportunity in hard situations. Especially during a difficult season of disrupted routines and unsettled emotions, this episode is motivational in taking ownership of our lives and choosing a goal to work towards.
