No matter at what age you enter a sport, your attitude is what cements your success. Today's guest and the first woman to join the Saudi Arabia Alpine Skiing Team, Sharifa Al-Sudairi, epitomises courage in competition. The 36-year-old athlete only took up professional ski racing in 2020 and admits that she has a long way to go. But Sharifa has already become a trailblazer among Arab women for her “never give up” mindset, which she has consciously been training since becoming an athlete. From growing up tackling the slopes of Switzerland as a child to enduring crashes as a forerunner, Sharifa has kept picking herself back up to push on in the sport and competed in her first official competition at Ski Dubai last November, which we get into in the show.We also discuss the huge potential in winter sports that is building in the Kingdom, now that Saudi Arabia has won the bid to host the 2029 Asian Winter Games and the reception that women from the region have been receiving world over for making a mark in a range of sports. Sharifa's perspective and lessons through skiing resonate with us, and we hope they do with you too!Enjoy!

How did a Junior World Slalom Champion become a 3x Olympian, 3x World Cup Winner and 11x podium finisher in Downhill? It all started with a $10 pair of stretch pants from the ‘90's. At forty years old, through the injuries and the disappointment, Steven still prepares so that he can ski with conviction on the razor's edge, speeds approaching 100 mph and jumps approaching 300 feet, that is Downhill skiing.
Outside of technology, Lars Grønnegaard is an avid cyclist. He stats that if you've been to Copenhagen, where his from, you would know that a lot of people do cycling. He is into road or mountain biking, along with Alpine Skiing - but he does the latter outside of Denmark, in Norway or South Austria. He is a family man, with 3 kids, and he takes his kids cycling with him. Along side of this, he likes to cook for his family. He claims he has a full life, between a startup, family, children and hobbies - and he needs no more.Prior to his current venture, Lars was primarily a product guy. And in running product, he cared deeply about the impact that strategic business moves made on the business. He also saw that claiming revenue was less empirical, creating human error and bias. After not finding a solution to solve his problem, he decided to create a platform to find out the truth around revenue data.This is the creation story of Dreamdata.Find out more about B2B Attribution here: https://dreamdata.io/b2b-attributionSponsorsImmediateOrbitPostmarkStytchVerb DataWebapp.ioLinksWebsite: https://dreamdata.io/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/larsgroennegaard/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Born with limb difference but having the drive and determination to become something more than her "disability". Being told she may never walk and having the will to prove everyone wrong. Daring to dream big and pushing the boundaries of being an athlete with limb difference comes the story of Roni Sasaki, Gold medalist in Alpine Skiing, author, speaker, and entrepreneur. This lady has accomplished a lot, but it was a rough road as a child with limb difference. Listen in as Roni tells us what it was like to look different as a child, overcoming the fears of fitting in, and then dreaming so big her dreams seemed out of reach and silly, back then. Be inspired by her story and how dreaming big and having faith, beyond measure, saved her and gave her purpose to push forward against the odds, accomplishing those dreams...and more! Roni on the slopes using a normal ski and boot with outriggers Roni also has a podcast called, "A Leg Up On Life", which you can listen to HERE . And you can even hear me being interviewed by Roni in Episode #44 on her site as well! What an incredible journey and story Roni has shared with us. I hope you find her as inspiring as I have to live your best life and to never give up on a dream. Roni, thank you for spending time with me and giving my audience some amazing words to live by. You are a true warrior and a blessing to know. As always and until next week, BE Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!!! Much love, Angie
