In this episode of Human Athlete, OCR and HYROX world championship qualifier Ida Mathilde Steensgard shares how taking a step back can bring clarity to what you truly want in life.
We dive into the power of mindfulness, like her practice of active journaling, which helps quiet her mind and navigate the emotional highs and lows of being a sensitive, driven human. Ida Mathilde reflects on staying present with her emotions, processing them, and learning to embrace the moments that make life feel meaningful.
She also talks about her dream project with Red Bull—The World's Toughest Playground—and how the experience of it going viral, with shares from Channing Tatum and Andrew Huberman, reminded her of the magic of persistence.
From hiking the Austrian mountains to find peace to dreaming of icy marathons, Ida Mathilde opens up about pursuing adventure, staying true to herself, and creating a life full of meaning and joy.
Listen now to hear about Ida Mathildes’s goals for 2025, her next big project, and the best and worst advice she’s ever received.
