Turning Public Failure Into Triumph - Olympic Gold Snowboarder Lindsey Jacobellis
Listen now
Description
How do you think you’d handle it if you failed at the one thing you’re supposed to be best at, on live TV, with the whole world watching?  Lindsey Jacobellis is the most successful female snowboarder of all time. She is a two-time Olympic Gold medalist, an Olympic Silver medalist, a 31x World Cup Gold Medalist and a 6x World Champion. Despite so much success, something happened in her early career that’s followed her ever since - a split-second mistake made at her first ever Olympics when she was just 20 years old. This defining moment led to public ridicule, a media circus and even hate mail.  It’s something that (understandably) shook her confidence and left her full of self-doubt. She’s had to actively fight to not let it define her.  I’m so excited to have her on Tiger Therapy to share her story and share what she learned with you. Thank you Lindsey! _______ Social media:  Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodhead Tigerhall  @Lindseyjacobellis Hosted on Acast.
