Caroline Buchanan | Scare The Sh*t Out of Yourself

Imagine tipping yourself over the handlebars of a mountain bike while at full speed. Now, imagine you're doing it to become the first woman ever to land a front flip on a mountain bike. It's an extraordinary feat by any measure, but for triple-threat-on-two-wheels Caroline Buchanan, it's just another day at work.Here we get into some big stuff with Caroline, who's a mountain bike and BMX world champ and Olympian. She talks to our executive editor Kara Byers about what it's like to dominate in traditionally male sports, why rejection is a gift, what it takes to tackle your fears head on and succeed, and how actually, you don't necessarily need to find a role model or someone who's doing what you want to be - because you CAN be what you can't see. CREDITS:This podcast was hosted by WH executive editor Kara Byers (https://www.instagram.com/karabyers/) and produced by WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin (https://instagram.com/lizza_marie/)For more from Women’s Health Australia, check out https://www.instagram.com/womenshealthaus/, https://www.womenshealth.com.au/ or find the print and digital editions of the magazine at https://www.womenshealth.com.au/subscribe-to-womens-health-australia-magazine.
