Episode 5 features Hive Gold Athlete and world-class wrestler Jenna Burkert. Jenna, who is 26, is remarkably energetic and forthcoming. She talks with host David Willey about mental toughness, fear and unstoppability.
Burkert started wrestling when she was 6 years old, before there was even a path for girls into the sport. Jenna created her own path and went on to become a national champion and qualify for several world championships. And, that's not it, thanks in part to her; Women's wrestling became an Olympic sport in 2004.
Now women's wrestling is one of the fastest growing sports in the world. There are currently 58 college teams and an even bigger push to add more collegiate and high school programs across the country.
Jenna is not only an elite wrestler but is also a Unit Supply Specialist based in Colorado Springs, and is part of the Army's World Class Athlete Program.
Even if you've never wrestled or watched wrestling, you will come away from this conversation feeling inspired to knock down whatever obstacles stand between you and your goals, whatever they may be.
