Today, we kōrero with Sam Dakin, a New Zealand Olympian, Cyclist, and Founder of Slow Coffee Roasters.

We explore his upbringing and the value of quality time with loved ones, his life as an athlete the supportive environment he’s built, and his entrepreneurial journey, including the lessons and learnings from launching Slow Coffee Roasters.

As a passionate advocate for mental health, Sam opens up about his personal experience with OCD, how he navigates life with it, and his tips for supporting others through tough times.
