The Belief You Can Be Greater: Lessons from 5-Time Olympian Jackie Edwards
What does it take to sustain two decades at the top of your game—and know when to evolve? In this episode of The Mindscape Report, Dr. Wilsa sits down with Jackie Edwards: five-time Olympian, NCAA champion, Stanford Hall of Famer, and a pioneer in mental resilience for athletes.
From her early days training in the Bahamas to breaking records at Stanford and competing on the world stage, Jackie shares the honest, unfiltered truth about performance pressure, culture, and reinvention. She discusses how she shifted from chasing medals to mastering mindset, the quiet challenges of identity loss after sport, and why mental health support must be culturally aware—especially for international student-athletes.
Whether you’re a healthcare professional, coach, or simply someone navigating personal growth, this conversation unpacks what it really means to pursue excellence without losing yourself. Jackie’s wisdom goes beyond the track and offers rare insight into trusting your path, redefining success, and showing up—again and again.
