Episode 26 - Intrepid x Lauren Steadman: “No Excuses”
Lauren Steadman is a British Paralympic Triathlete Champion. She has spent over 18 years as an athlete and has competed in 4 Paralympic Games, winning Gold in Tokyo in 2020.
Lauren was born with a congenital limb difference, missing her lower right arm. But it is quite clear that there is nothing Lauren can’t do. Or can’t put her mind to.
She has a degree in Psychology and a Masters in Business. She was awarded an MBE in 2021 and an Honorary Doctorate by The University of Portsmouth this year.
Lauren has appeared on SAS: Who Dares Wins AND Strictly Come Dancing.
She is a PHD student - currently researching for her thesis in mental health & wellbeing in athletes and its application to high performance.
And her latest achievement is that she has recently become a crossfit athlete. And I had the honour of partnering with her for her first Crossfit competition recently.
I can't wait for you to meet this real life legend who literally takes everything in her stride, what a huge inspiration she is.
