Olympic Gold Medalist Mikaela Shiffrin on Blocking Out Toxic Mental Noise To Achieve Greatness EP 1470

Unleash the greatness within

Double-Olympic champion, seven-time World Champion, and winningest skier of all-time Mikaela Shiffrin has elevated women’s ski racing globally – both on and off the mountain. At 28- years-old, Mikaela has 88 World Cup victories across six disciplines to her name and is the only athlete to win in all six disciplines. At World Champs in Courchevel/Meribel, she became the most decorated alpine skier of the modern era in World Championships history (14 medals, seven gold). At Cortina 2021 World Champs, Mikaela became the first skier- male or female – to win gold medals at five straight worlds, and has now extended that to six straight worlds with

her gold in giant slalom at Courchevel/Meribel 2023.

“Knowing that the outcome could be completely terrible, you still need to go down that road and try, and that is the only confidence I want to have – the confidence to try!” @mikaelashiffrin  

And now let’s jump into episode 1470 of The School of Greatness!

“If I think about winning, I will not win – it happens every time! I have to think about racing the course vs. winning. It always has to be about what’s happening between the start and the finish line.” @mikaelashiffrin  

Some Questions I Ask:

  • As one of the most accomplished ski racers in the world, how do you MENTALLY stay motivated and maintain your competitive edge?
  • You’ve won numerous Olympic and World Championship medals. Can you describe the emotions and experiences of competing at the highest level?
  • Could you share some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced throughout your career, and how you overcame them?
  • Ski racing requires intense physical and mental preparation. What does your training routine look like, both on and off the slopes?
  • Alpine skiing is known for its high-speed, high-risk nature. How do you manage the pressure and maintain focus during races?

  • The power of visualization in achieving your goals
  • The biggest challenges a Double-Olympic Gold Medalist faces on and off the slopes
