4x Olympic Gold Medalist Sanya Richards-Ross On Embracing Change & Building Your Second Act

What’s it like to reach the peak of your career — and have to start over? Sanya Richards-Ross had to ask herself that question when she retired from track years ago, after winning four Olympic gold medals and setting a record it would take 19 years for someone else to break. Now an entrepreneur, Emmy winner, and mom of three, Sanya Richards-Ross has a lot to teach us about the art of building your second act. 

My favorite lesson from this interview? Greatness isn’t fleeting. The same skills you’ve built in one lane of your life will apply to another. Hear how Sanya put that mantra into practice in our full conversation.
