Amy Williams MBE | Talent to Triumph Giving The Game Away

    • Sport

Amy Williams was propelled to stardom in 2010 after winning Britain’s first individual gold medal at the Winter Olympic Games in 30 years. Having only started Skeleton Racing at 19 years old, eight years prior to the Games, Amy’s story is one of dreaming big and following an ambition with focus and disciplined day-to-day habits. The topics we cover in this episode are: 

- How a lack of resources can often be your biggest unfair advantage 

- The importance of consistently getting your thoughts down on paper

- How true enjoyment of your craft leads you to unlocking your potential

- Controlling the controllables 

- How discipline is more important than motivation 

- The moment Amy knew she’d won Gold



Amy has written about all of her experiences and learnings in a book called Talent to Triumph, and we highly recommend it. Check out more of Amy's work at https://www.amywilliams.com/.
