Finding Your Gift with Olivia West

In this episode of See Yourself IN, host Casey Harrison interviews Olivia West, the in-game host for the Indiana Fever and Indiana Pacers, and a dynamic public speaker. Olivia shares her journey from growing up in La Porte, Indiana, to her time at Purdue University, her career in the life sciences industry, and her current work inspiring others. She emphasizes the importance of self-belief, finding and using your gifts to serve others, and running the race of life to win. Olivia also recounts her unique start in public speaking, standing on hay bales in a horse arena, and discusses her passion for empowering others and impacting lives.

5 Key Takeaways:

1. Believe in Yourself: Self-belief is the foundation for success. If you don't believe in yourself, it's difficult for others to believe in you.

2. Find Your Gift and Serve: Identify your unique skills and talents and use them to serve others. Greatness comes from service.

3. Run to Win: Approach life with a winning mindset. Don't just participate; strive to excel and make a meaningful impact.

4. Embrace Opportunities: Be open to exploring different paths and industries. Even unexpected experiences can provide valuable skills and insights.

5. Leverage Your Experiences: Every experience, even those from childhood, can contribute to your success. Olivia's experience with 4H and FFA, and public speaking on hay bales, helped her become a public speaker.
