Send a textMegan Harrod has lived many lives, from being born in a trailer home in Montana to spending nearly a decade as the Alpine press officer for the US Ski Team, traveling the World Cup circuit and managing media for some of the world's best athletes. Now a brand strategist, publicist, and podcast producer working closely with Mikaela Shiffrin, Megan shares her remarkable journey from racing on Midwest man-made hills to the finish lines of Olympic venues. She opens up about the financial barriers in ski racing, the importance of accessibility programs like Share Winter, and how her experience managing intense athlete dynamics has made her a better mom to her two children, Pierce and Stetson, who are just 13 months apart. Megan discusses producing Mikaela's podcast "What's the Point," the powerful Mik 100 campaign that raised nearly $500,000 for ski access, and how she's learned to balance remote work with traveling to World Cup races with babies in tow. Her authentic approach to storytelling and her commitment to making the sport more accessible shine through as she reflects on memorable moments like Beijing 2022 and the importance of mental health in athletics.Notable Quotes:"I wouldn't have it any other way. It was such a cool family experience... it was such a strong community and I still have friends from that team growing up.""In many ways, that was the best thing that could have happened because people really saw who she is at the core.

Success at the highest level often hides a harder truth: discipline, sacrifice, and relentless pressure can coexist with loneliness, self doubt, and burnout. When winning becomes routine and falling is inevitable, mental toughness is no longer optional, it is survival. We dive deeper into this in the Habits & Hustle with Lindsey Vonn. We also chat about building resilience through failure, the real cost of elite performance, and redefining identity after retirement. Lindsey Vonn is an American former World Cup alpine ski racer on the US Ski Team. She won four World Cup overall championships and ranks third among female skiers behind Annemarie Moser Proll and Mikaela Shiffrin, with three consecutive titles in 2008, 2009, and 2010, plus another in 2012.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1889DMMikaela Shiffrin is the most decorated alpine skier in World Cup history. Over 100 wins. Youngest slalom gold medalist ever. More than a decade at the absolute top.And she's still in disbelief about all of it.The moment that stopped me: when she thinks "I want to win," she never wins. Other athletes can win just by wanting it badly enough. For her, wanting to win is the kiss of death.So what does she think about instead? Making really good turns. That's her entire philosophy. She even calls it boring. But that boring focus built the greatest skiing career in history.She figured this out at age eight, watching her idol Bode Miller get torn apart after disappointing Olympic performances. She saw how pressure and public opinion crushed even the greatest athletes. Right then, she decided: focus on the craft, ignore the glory.That decision protected her from the thing that destroys most champions—believing their own hype.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Mikaela Shiffrin je na olimpijskih igrah veličastne zmage prepletala z bridkimi porazi. Nekajkrat je bila na igrah izrazita favoritinja, a se tekme niso izšle po njenih željah, navsezadnje se je to zgodilo tudi v Cortini, kjer v ekipni kombinaciji ni uspela zadržati ameriškega vodstva in ostala brez medalje. Slalom pa je vrhunsko odpeljala, v slogu svoje izjemne zime. Zdržala je pod pritiskom in zmagala s prednostjo sekunde in pol. Več naslovov olimpijskega prvaka imata v alpskem smučanju zdaj le Kjetil Andre Aamodt (četil andre omot) in Janica Kostelić. O Schiffrinovi in njeni tretji zlati olimpijski kolajni v oddaji Dolimita z radijskima reporterjem Igorjem Tomincem in Tomažem Langerholzem ter voditeljem Luko Petričem.

pWotD Episode 3204: Lindsey Vonn Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 954,668 views on Sunday, 8 February 2026 our article of the day is Lindsey Vonn.Lindsey Caroline Vonn (née Kildow ; born October 18, 1984) is an American alpine ski racer. She won four World Cup overall championships with titles in 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2012. Vonn won the gold medal in downhill at the 2010 Winter Olympics, the first one for an American woman. She also won a record eight World Cup season titles in the downhill discipline (2008–2013, 2015, 2016), five titles in super-G (2009–2012, 2015), and three consecutive titles in the combined (2010–2012). In 2016, she won her 20th World Cup crystal globe title, the overall record for men or women, surpassing Ingemar Stenmark of Sweden, who won 19 globes from 1975 to 1984. She has the third highest super ranking of all skiers, men or women.Vonn is one of six women to have won World Cup races in all five disciplines of alpine skiing – downhill, super-G, giant slalom, slalom, and super combined – and (as of January 22, 2026) has won 84 World Cup races in her career. When she retired in 2019, her total of 82 World Cup victories was a women's record that stood until January 2023, when it was surpassed by Mikaela Shiffrin. Only Shiffrin and Stenmark have more victories than Vonn, with the record held by Shiffrin. With her Olympic gold and bronze medals, two World Championship gold medals in 2009 (plus three silver medals in 2007 and 2011), and four overall World Cup titles, Vonn is one of the most successful American ski racers, and is considered one of greatest alpine skiers of all time.In 2011, Vonn received the Laureus World Sportswoman of the Year award, and was the United States Olympic Committee's sportswoman of the year. Injuries caused Vonn to miss parts of several seasons, including almost all of the 2014 season and most of the 2013 season. While recovering from injury, she worked as a correspondent for NBC News, covering the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. In 2019, she announced her retirement, citing her injuries. Vonn returned to competitive skiing in November 2024, and became the oldest downhill skiing World Cup winner at the age of 41.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 11:23 UTC on Tuesday, 10 February 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Lindsey Vonn on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Matthew.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1470Mikaela Shiffrin won almost every race by over two seconds in her breakthrough season. The next year, when she won by six tenths of a second, people said she was getting slow. The victory itself wasn't questioned, but suddenly winning alone wasn't good enough. She had to win by more. This shift created something she'd never experienced before: performance anxiety so severe she was vomiting at the start of almost every race. Not from fear of losing, but from fear of the disappointment that came with not exceeding expectations that had become completely unrealistic. Even people closest to her would say things like "it'd be so great if you could just stomp on this race." She knew the expectations weren't realistic, but she didn't know how to explain that. So she raced anyway, and people took four to five years to catch up to the fact that her early dominance was a moment in time, not a permanent standard.The breakthrough came from recognizing that exhaustion isn't weakness. After winning her 85th World Cup victory, everyone assumed number 86 the next day was a done deal. But she'd raced seven times in ten days across Europe. She was mentally and emotionally disconnected, not because she lacked skill or drive, but because she was human and tired. Sometimes you just need one recovery day. She's learned to recognize when expectations are unrealistic, when media questions are trying to insinuate feelings rather than ask honestly, and most importantly, that people will eventually catch up. Excellence doesn't mean you have to exceed impossible standards every single time. Sometimes winning by six tenths is still extraordinary, even if two seconds was once possible.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Mikaela Shiffrin is the winningest alpine skier in history, with more than 105 World Cup victories, three Olympic medals, and eight World Championship titles, yet even at the top of her sport, she's the first to admit she's still learning. In this conversation with NBC News correspondent Stephanie Gosk, Shiffrin opens up about resilience, fear, and the lessons that come from failure, including how she processed the heartbreak of Beijing and the perspective she's gained since. She also shares how she's channeling those experiences into her pursuit of success at Milan-Cortina 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Superstars like Jannik Sinner and Mikaela Shiffrin wear a headset to train their minds and get in the zone. But a six-month investigation by Hunterbrook Media, in collaboration with PTFO, uncovered the technology's secret funding by entities linked to the Chinese government — plus partnerships with robotics companies helping to train super-soldiers of the future. Hunterbrook's Sam Koppelman examines the potential impact on AI, mind control, state surveillance, cognitive warfare... and one very surprised Super Bowl champion.Read the full Hunterbrook investigation into BrainCo at https://hntrbrk.com/brainco/ or listen to the Hunterbrook podcast, The Hunt, wherever you get your podcasts.(Pablo Torre Finds Out is independently produced by Meadowlark Media and distributed by The Athletic.

"I'm a guy who needs a lede. I need the lede to work. I need it to be compelling. And it doesn't have to be the best place to begin. It just has to be a place to begin that works and that amuses and sucks you in. I. So once I have a lede, then that will lead to another place," says Nick Paumgarten.Wow, so today we have Nick Paumgarten and can I tell you something? Nick has long been my favorite New Yorker profile writer. Whether it's profiling Mikaela Shiffrin or Mr. Money Mustache, or features about elevators, teaching birds to migrate, the Eagles winning the Super Bowl, or a feature about a sketchy restaurateur; he is appointment reading. I see his name in the table of contents of an issue of The New Yorker and I will stop just about everything I'm doing and spend the next hour or so reading Nick's work. Over the years, he's been the model, for me, as the perfect profile writer.Nick is a long-time New Yorker staff writer. You know, it's funny, since I've never landed a big feature at a big magazine like the New Yorker, I kinda feel like a phony, a fake writer, even though I have two books under my belt. When Nick and I were off mic, he was saying how because he hasn't published a book yet, he feels like a fake writer. This is Nick Paumgarten (!) saying he feels like a phony. It goes to show, none of us feel good about ourselves.In this episode, we talk about: The reporting suggesting the root system of a piece Loosening your grip Stories being like a rip tide Need a lede to work first Befriending chronology And the nerderyI mean, great stuff. I was finally put in touch with Nick by CNF Pod alum Jared Sullivan, the author of the brilliant book Valley So Low, of Ep. 443 fame, and I'm so glad we got to make this happen.Order The Front RunnerNewsletter: Rage Against the AlgorithmWelcome to Pitch ClubShow notes: brendanomeara.com
