In this episode, we chat to the remarkable Erin Kennedy, OBE, a Paralympic Champion and decorated Coxswain with the GB Rowing Team. Erin shares her incredible journey of achieving peak performance in elite sport, including multiple Olympic, World and European Championship titles.
We delve into the extraordinary mental resilience she demonstrated in winning a World Cup Gold medal just days after her breast cancer diagnosis and a European Gold medal during her chemotherapy. Erin discusses how the delayed gratification and ability to compartmentalise, honed through years of strategic focus in competitive rowing, provided her with invaluable tools to navigate and overcome significant personal challenges.
