Mastermind: David Smith MBE

Many of us take our health for granted. In today’s episode, I invite you to pause and reflect on what’s important to you – and chase your goals with increased motivation. Today we are joined by David Smith MBE, the Paralympic Gold Medalist, who speaks about his battle with a rare spinal tumor and his attitude towards optimism, mindfulness and resilience. David is a Nike Athlete, speaker, writer and coach – and he has competed internationally in several sports including GB Rowing and British Cycling. David has overcome tremendous adversity and now shares both his experience in high performance sport and his first hand experience of fighting for his life with a rare tumor and living with paralysis. He pushes both mental and physical boundaries in the hope to inspire others to live a flourishing life. This is an abridged interview that I had with David Smith MBE for the Sporting Edge members community.If you want to watch the full version of this interview, you can join the Sporting Edge Members Club to get 24/7 access to over 900 insights to accelerate your personal and professional development, apply the discount code PODCAST100 in the checkout here to get your first month free.You can also join our Winning Mindset for Leaders Programme starting on the 9th May hereLinked mentioned:David Smith’s website https://davidsmithathlete.com/ Good genes are nice, but joy is better – Harvard Connect with JeremyContact [email protected] LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremysnape/ Twitter https://twitter.com/thesportingedgeFacebook http://www.facebook.com/TheSportingEdgeWebsite https://www.sportingedge.com/
