Katie Hoff went to her first Olympic Games in Athens at the age of 15. She’s won 8 World Championships and 3 Olympic medals, and she spent years breaking world records and being heralded as the female Michael Phelps. After decades competing on the world stage, she knows a lot about extraordinary pressure.
Now, as a mentor, keynote speaker and bestselling author, she helps other people turn that pressure into fuel — whether they’re striving for gold medals and national championships or working towards a promotion at work.
In this episode of Make Yourself at Home, Katie shares how she translates the process that helped her find unshakeable confidence in swimming to other arenas, and why she's passionate about helping other people push back against nerves to achieve their goals. And, after a lifetime of being on the go, she talks about how she and her husband (and fellow athlete) Todd Anderson have found home in Nashville, and why they chose this place to grow both their personal lives and their training business, Synergy Dryland. Make Yourself at Home with Katie Hoff.
