Great career opportunity at @ownthepodium !
I’ve been involved in the Culture of Excellence project for the last 3 years as part of my graduate program - it’s an incredible team team to work with and an opportunity to be part of the change in sport.

Marissa Papaconstantinou (@marissa_paps) was only 16-years-old when she competed at her first Paralympic Games and she's taking that experience, and a new mindset with her to Tokyo

You know we are excited about #NationalRunningDay! Who else is getting out on a run today?

We NEED to stop glamourising overworking. Please.
The absence of sleep, good diet, exercise, relaxation, and time with friends and family isn't something to be applauded.
Too many people wear their burnout as a badge of honour.
And it needs to change.

Courage isn't the absence of fear. It is experiencing fear and moving forward anyways.

If you are feeling chronic low-level angst mixed with a general blah rut feeling know you aren't alone. I've had 7 coaching sessions with top-notch people and performers in last two days. Everyone is feeling it. I'm feeling it too. Hang in there. Focus on productive action.

Humility is integral to growth. Once you think you know you cease to keep knowing. Once you think you're good you cease to keep getting better. But there is always more to know. Always space to get better. The never-ending path of mastery is paved by curiosity and humility.

We have an opportunity to think about humanity, to make brave decisions and to support each other, especially those who are in more difficult circumstances than ourselves. #belonging

Love this idea. I keep notes in my phone but this would be more dynamic for reviewing
Tip for remembering and consolidating what you've learned: Make mini-powerpoint presentations for topics or a book you read.
A few slides to capture the main takeaways, and you've got an instant reference and reminder. And you can build the detail out of the years.
