Olympic Level Mental Toughness

On the morning she won the Gold Medal in the Individual All-Around competition, Biles started her day by calling her therapist. Mental health doesn’t need to be taboo, whispered behind closed doors. It doesn’t need to be unordinary. In fact, according to one of the greatest athletes in human history, it may be the secret to becoming an extraordinary you.

 

Inspired by Simone Biles and the other extraordinary athletes competing in Paris, Joanne reflects on mental toughness with guest Caroline Burckle, 2008 Olympic Bronze Medalist (swimming).
