Simone Biles & Laurie Hernandez on Medals, Mental Health and Self-Trust

In anticipation of the Olympic games, today is a special encore episode of Glennon and Abby’s conversation with Simone Biles and Laurie Hernandez. Originally titled: HOW TO SAY NO with Simone Biles and Laurie Hernandez. Discover: 1. What we can learn from Simone’s revolutionary decision at the Tokyo Olympics to choose her physical and mental health over the world’s expectations of her. 2. The tiny decisions that helped Laurie practice trusting herself again after surviving a toxic coach. 3. Why Simone, Laurie, and Abby believe their talent is both a blessing and a curse. 4. The places and times Simone and Laurie create where they have nothing to prove—to remind themselves they are human beings, not performance machines. 5. How Simone and Laurie are a big part of one of Abby and Glennon’s favorite family stories. About Simone: Simone Biles, one of the greatest gymnasts of all-time, is the first woman to capture five All-Around World Championship titles. She is the most decorated gymnast in World Championships history—male or female—with 25 medals overall (19 gold), and is a seven-time Olympic medalist (4 gold). A three-time Laureus World Sportswoman of the Year, she earned the rare distinction of having four skills named in her honor—called The Biles. Simone’s autobiography Courage to Soar is a New York Times bestseller. Simone advocates for change and supports initiatives that provide education and assistance for children and young adults associated with adoption and childcare.
