S13 E18: Visualize, Compete, Repeat: A Conversation With Olympian Carrie Tollefson

What does it take to think like an Olympian, even if you never toe a starting line? In this episode, Olympic middle-distance runner Carrie Tollefson talks about building an athlete mindset and why self-belief isn't reserved for the elite or professionals. She also shares her take on why it's important to reinvent yourself — day after day, year after year, chapter after chapter — and the importance of saying "yes" to opportunities that push your limits. 

 

Plus, Tollefson discusses how women's voices, presence, and allyship in sport strengthen the game for everyone.
