THANKYOU for joining me for Episode 6 of Zapgirl and the Podcast!!!
Have you ever had a conversation with an Olympian where they tell you what their secret was to winning an Olympic Medal?? I was lucky enough to do just that recently and I'm thrilled to share my conversation with Olympic Super Hero, Paul Wylie. He lives in Charlotte, North Carolina with his lovely wife, Kate, and their three amazing kids.
Paul won the Silver Medal for the USA in Mens Figure Skating at the 1992 Winter Olympics in Albertville, France. The thing is though, he was the underdog... but he focused his energy and opened himself up to the possibility of actually winning!
He talks about how he put himself in a grateful state of mind, even when it doesn't come naturally... sharing his process on how to accomplish what you set out to do.
Oh... and this is a two-part episode, so PLEASE be sure to listen to the next episode to really embrace the full picture of Paul's professional and personal journey of resilience.
Thank you, again, for tuning in. I'd be honored if you subscribed and shared this podcast. I'd love to hear from you, too! If you have an idea for the show, please send it to me!
With Gratitude,
Carrie ❤️⚡️
