Interview with an Olympic Gold Medalist

Dandapani and Natalie Cook

Last week in Sydney, Australia, I caught up with a dear friend of mine, Natalie Cook, five-time Olympian and Olympic gold medalist, who happened to be visiting this beautiful city as well. I took this opportunity to interview her about sustaining motivation and to gain some insights into what drove her to win an Olympic gold medal. When we explored the topic of working towards something you want in life she asks, “How much do you really want it?”. A very good question that few people ever ask themselves. She also shares some good insights into how to get what you want! I hope you enjoy the video interview below.
