[Podcast] The Mindset Shift Needed After Achieving My Olympic Dream

Hi there,

I hope you’re having a good week so far.

For many people, the constant drive and focus on a goal can mean we spend years putting our all in to achieve it, only to eventually realise that time and development have changed us to a point where we no longer personally suit that goal.

What follows can be a period of frustration, confusion and ‘lostness’ as we try to find where we belong.

This was certainly the case for me.

When Ali Flynn , founder and host of the Challenges That Change Us podcast, reached out, I was glad to be able to share some of my journey and the lessons along the way.

Below are the notes Ali has made about the episode.

I hope you find it useful.
