Description

In this episode I’m joined by the incredible bobsleigh athlete Desi Johnson to dive deep into the mindset of performing at the highest level. From overcoming countless injuries and setbacks, to chasing an olympics qualification, Desi shares what resilience really looks like.

We talk about earning to enjoy the journey and why sport should never become your entire identity. Desi opens up about managing nerves and adrenaline under pressure, separating self-worth from performance and how she reframed injuries as opportunities instead of obstacles. She also shares powerful mindset tools for young athletes, why presence matters more than perfection and what truly separates good athletes from great ones.

If you’re chasing big goals, this conversation will inspire you to enjoy the process and release the pressure while still aiming high.
