Drive to Survive with Guenther Steiner and Team USA Bobsled Aspirations with Karen Hubbard


Listen Later

On today’s show I sat down with two guests to talk about speed – one on ice and the other on the race track.

My first guest was Karen Hubbard, a Purdue-trained engineer, Westfield High School track coach, and rising rookie on Team USA bobsled.

Karen shares her unexpected journey from high school track standout to budding bobsled star, discussing the physical and mental challenges, as well as the training and selection processes involved in the sport.

Additionally, Karen reflects on overcoming personal health battles and how her diverse career path, including time as a McKinsey consultant and entrepreneur, prepared her for this new athletic pursuit.

My second guest features a special interview with Guenther Steiner, known from Netflix’s Drive to Survive, who offers insights into the world of F1 racing and previews his upcoming live show in Indianapolis.

You are going to learn about: - Karen’s Transition from the Corporate World to Athletic Pursuits - Karen’s Training Regimen for Team USA Bobsledding - Drive to Survive, F1 Racing and Guenther Steiner’s Live Show in Indy
