How a Trial Attorney Finds Solutions While Swimming: William Robinson, EP 295
Episode 295
Wednesday, 26 November, 2025
A pool deck can feel like a second home, and today’s conversation proves why. In this brand New episode we chat with attorney and masters swimmer William Robinson at the Fort Lauderdale Aquatic Center to trace a life shaped by laps: early lessons in New Haven, Connecticut with Olympic great Don Schollander, a joyful return sparked by his daughters, and a training rhythm that blends endurance heart with sprint ambitions. William shares the open water feat that tested his grit—a nine-mile lighthouse swim—and explains why the 50 free still calls his name as he chases speed, craft, and longevity.What stands out most is how the water sharpens his mind for the courtroom. William describes using swims as moving meditation, a place where arguments settle, focus deepens, and solutions surface. He walks us through his go-to set of 10x100 on a sustainable sendoff, the value of three to four weekly sessions at Victory Pool, and the quiet confidence that comes from realistic, consistent training. We also swap notes on heroes: Michael Phelps for his relentless range and Katie Ledecky for decade-long excellence and process-driven mastery.The heart of the episode is purpose. William celebrates his family, including a daughter who became the first Black woman to earn a PhD in nuclear engineering from MIT, and he channels that pride into advocacy for a more diverse aquatics community. From Florida to Texas, he sees momentum and calls on all of us to extend more invitations, build pipelines, and make the deck welcoming for every swimmer. If you care about performance, balance, and impact, this story offers a model: use sport to think better, live calmer, and open doors for others.If this conversation moved you, tap follow, share it with a teammate, and leave a quick review to help more swimmers and fans find the show.
