Monika Sattler's Journey to 2 World Records and Mindset Empowerment
In a captivating episode of the Ride To Success podcast, Pedro Couto Lopes sat down with Monika Sattler , a former professional cyclist turned mindset coach, speaker, and author, known for her daring feats and innovative mindset model. The conversation delves into Monika's journey from the adrenaline of professional cycling to the realms of mindset coaching, revealing insights into overcoming fears, setting bold goals, and redefining success.
"People Stay in Their Comfort Zone Because They Are Afraid of Failure"
?Monika's initiation into the world of cycling began not from ambition but from a challenge posed by a friend. Despite her initial scepticism and a humbling start, Monika's determination saw her rapidly progress from being dropped in a 50-kilometre group ride to competing in elite races. It's this resolve that shapes her approach to life and career, teaching her that failure isn't about falling but refusing to get back up.
Professional Cycling Experience and Lessons Learned
Monika's brief foray into professional cycling taught her invaluable lessons about self-awareness and the essence of true passion. Despite stepping away from a career with the World Bank and IBM for cycling, she realized competitive cycling wasn't her true calling. This period, although marked by what many would consider a failure, was instrumental in Monika's understanding of success and happiness, reinforcing the idea that true fulfilment comes from pursuing what genuinely ignites one's passion.

"I think not growing and not learning would scare me. Standing still. Not being able to move basically physically and mentally. That would scare me. And how I go against it? Just discover, learn, try out new routes."

Facing and Overcoming Challenges
Monika's career is punctuated by monumental challenges, including cycling the Vuelta a Espa?a and conquering all 124 Swiss passes in just 26 days. These endeavours were not just about physical endurance but also mental battles. Monika shares that preparation for such feats involves a blend of mental fortitude, strategic planning, and the ability to embrace and learn from potential failures.
Making Dreams Come True
In her book "What It Takes to Make Dreams Come True," Monika encapsulates her journey and the distilled wisdom from her adventures and challenges.
