Conor Dwyer Reynolds, Executive Director of the Police Accountability Board is on the show to give some insights on the PAB's goals. Also find some common ground with Lavellle on the Obama administration.
What is the Police Accountability Board? What can it do? What are its goals? Why should we support its work? These are the questions Executive Director Conor Dwyer Reynolds will help answer as he describes how the PAB can hold government accountable and keep all Rochesterians safe.
Their talk examines how federal and local policies like redlining and racially restrictive covenants (as demonstrated by this summer's Yale Law report) segregated Rochester, built wealth for its white citizens and disenfranchised people of color. It explores how local civil rights leaders like Judge Reuben Davis, Howard Coles, Dr. Alice Young and many others fought back. Finally, it connects these past policies to the disparity and inequality we see in Rochester today and invites us to learn from and apply the activism of Rochester's past to its present.
On Tuesday evening, City Council unanimously approved Conor Dwyer Reynolds as the first executive director of Rochester's Police Accountability Board (PAB) . That decision came after a tense confirmation hearing and questions about the board's independence. We talk to Dwyer Reynolds and PAB Board Chair Shani Wilson about their goals for the PAB, and the state of police-community relations in Rochester. Our guests: Conor Dwyer Reynolds, executive director of the Rochester Police Accountability Board Shani Wilson, chair of the Rochester Police Accountability Board
We sat down with Wisconsin assistant coach, Erik Posegay. Before breaking into the college coaching ranks, Posegay was Bob Bowman's assistant coach at North Baltimore, which included working with the likes of Michael Phelps, Yannick Agnel, Conor Dwyer, and more. Posegay got real with some of the sets they threw down and how he may have ended up learning more from them than vice versa.

This week’s conversation is with American Swimmer and Olympic Gold Medalist Conor Dwyer.You wouldn’t know it looking at him now, with his 6’5”, athletic frame, three Olympic medals and four World Championships titles to his name, but success in the pool didn’t come easily to Conor. He was a multi-sport athlete throughout his youth, settling into swimming as his main focus late in high school. He was good but never quite great and the self described ‘very late bloomer’ struggled to get any collegiate coach to look his way as graduation approached. Unlike most of his teammates now on the U.S. National Swim Team there were no red carpet swim scholarships rolled out in his direction. But what Conor may have lacked in head-turning results early in his career he made up for with a gut- wrenching work ethic. What changed for Conor? His mindset. His environment. His training.In this conversation, we discuss how Conor transformed his swimming career: from unrecruited to winning multiple gold medals at the Olympic Games, I hope this conversation reminds you that success doesn’t come early to everyone.Conor is a great example of what happens to those who build up the capacity to persevere until they get where they want.This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens.Receive a free 20-count travel pack of Athletic Greens (valued at $99) with any purchase!Claim here: athleticgreens.com/findingmasterySupport for Finding Mastery also brought to you by Health IQ:Health IQ uses science & data to secure lower rates on life insurance for health conscious people including runners, cyclists, strength trainers, vegans, and more.Learn more and get a free quote at healthiq.com/findingmastery

“You can never really dream too big. Just open up your mind and if you really do want it bad enough, you can achieve it through hard work.”Conor DwyerI know what you’re thinking. It's rather convenient for any Olympic athlete to say that hard work trumps talent.For perspective, take a glance at the palmarès of this week's guest:* 2012 London Olympics: Gold in the 4×200 meter freestyle relay* 2016 Rio Olympics: Gold in the 4×200 meter freestyle relay* 2016 Rio Olympics: Bronze in the 200 meter freestyleIn total, Conor Dwyer has won seventeen medals in major international swimming competitions: nine gold, six silver, and two bronze. I could geek out on his statistics forever but you get the picture. The dude is super fast in the pool; one of the fastest swimmers of all time.An extraordinary athlete, Conor is obviously immensely talented. So this idea that hard work beats talent can't possibly apply to him, right?Not so fast. Conor was the furthest thing from a natural talent right out of the gate. His performances out of high school were so mediocre in fact, he couldn't even get the attention of college coaches let alone a swimming scholarship. I simply cannot overstate how rare it is in competitive swimming that an athlete of his current caliber had yet to distinguish himself by 18. It just doesn't happen.But Conor refused to give up. Through persistence and a robust work ethic relentlessly applied, a series of circumstances slowly aligned. A believing coach appeared to mentor him, followed by training partners to push him to new levels of possibility and further fuel his self-belief in potential. Over time, all the important ingredients alchemized to bake the cake that is the superstar athlete we know today as Conor Dwyer.This week Conor shares his extraordinary story from bench warmer to Olympic champion. A story that lays bare a simple core truth I have experienced myself:when the heart is pure and fueled by self-belief, extreme faith, unwavering patience and an unabating work ethic, the universe conspires to support the dream.One of the good guys, Conor lives it with every breath. A recipe for success that has fueled his accomplishments and will support anyone — irrespective of talent level — in the pursuit of an audacious dream.I sincerely hope you enjoy the exchange.Peace + Plants,Listen & Subscribe on iTunes | Soundcloud | StitcherJoin us for our next retreat in Italy, May 20-27 — for info visit: plantpowerworld.comThanks to this week’s sponsors:Headspace.com: Train your mind for a healthier, less-stressed life.
