Mental Health & Confidence With Pro Racer Isla Short


Listen Later

In this podcast episode, I interview Isla Short. If you don't know Isla, she's a professional mountain biker on the world cross-country circuit. 

What makes Isla stand out is her honesty and transparency. Rather than joining a big factory team, she's gone it solo. This has given her the opportunity to only work with sponsors she believes in and can endorse. 

She's also upfront about her mental and physical health struggle struggles. After a personal best 5th place at the 2020 world championships, she's struggled with both the pandemic and imposter syndrome competing amongst the best women in the world.

We chat about all of that in this interview, and more.
