Do you know what it feels like to be a world champion and Olympic gold medalist?
Most of us will never make the Olympics, but what if you could LEARN and APPLY this same mindset to your business, career, health and relationships?
If you’re like me, you know it would be a powerful mindset to tap into.
Our next guest is the most recognized name in gymnastics.
She won a gold medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, then won the 8th season of Dancing with the Stars and is here to share her champion insights and be your star on the 22nd episode of The School of Greatness.
It’s my pleasure to introduce America’s sweetheart and the very talented Shawn Johnson.
