Four-time Olympic gold medalist Sanya Richards-Ross reflects on the inner work behind elite performance — navigating self-expectation, identity, and life after the finish line. She shares how injury, loss, and transition reshaped her understanding of success, and how she now brings that mindset into motherhood, work, and community.

This is Episode 1/4 of Good Inside Presents: The Playbook, a limited-edition series created in partnership with Nike.
