Introduction
Patrick
My guest today requires a bit of a special introduction. In this episode, we do not discuss markets or investing. It is instead about adventure and taking life by the you know what. My guest, Kiley Adams, is 21 years old. She's crammed what would be considered a magical and adventurous life into just two decades. Here's a little taste from the episode.
Patrick
When's the last time you lost in a competition?
Kiley
I don't remember.

I met Kiley while teaching an investing class at Notre Dame. She is a track and field star, valedictorian, varsity soccer player, Taekwondo master and philanthropic researcher. She has been everywhere in the U.S. and recently spent two months by herself in India, conducting research that will help people with disabilities. And that's just the start. She describes how all this is possible because of perseverance, attitude, and an internal locus of control. I'm going to keep returning to this episode as a reminder that just about anything is possible.I can't wait for my daughter to meet Kiley someday. She inspired me to, as she says, move forward relentlessly. For notes on this show, visit investorfieldguide.com/Adams. Now, please enjoy this great conversation with Kiley Adams.
