Run Your Own Race: Olympian Allyson Felix Redefines Winning
Descripción del Episodio
Allyson Felix, a name synonymous with unparalleled achievement and groundbreaking advocacy, joins Mick Unplugged to share her remarkable journey. From shattering Olympic records and redefining what it means to be a champion athlete to becoming a fierce advocate for maternal rights and an innovative entrepreneur with her brand, Saysh, Allyson's story is one of unwavering resilience, profound purpose, and inspiring leadership. She delves into the core values that have guided her through athletic triumphs and personal challenges, demonstrating how faith, integrity, and a commitment to impact have shaped her legacy far beyond the track.
Takeaways:
- The 'Because' of Purpose: Allyson Felix reveals that her profound drive stems from a faith-based belief in serving others and making a lasting impact, viewing her gifts as divine and meant for more than personal glory.
- Building Your Own Lane: Faced with a lack of support in the industry, Allyson Felix co-founded Saysh, demonstrating that true change often comes from building the solutions you wish to see, rather than waiting for existing structures to adapt.
- Beyond the Medal: For Allyson Felix, triumph extended beyond winning races; her most meaningful victory was competing in her own Saysh shoes, symbolizing a deeper purpose of representing women, especially women of color, and advocating for her daughter.
Sound Bytes:
"I truly believe that I was there for more than, you know, to run fast or, you know, really tried to live out my values as well and hope that that was seen and that was a real picture of someone striving for something. So yeah, to me, it's a part of who I am."
"I did always have to come back to, know, well, who am I? And that is more important than any of these other things. And I truly believe also like what's for me will be for me. And I think that helped, you know, it really helped a lot of those times where you felt that pull and, you know, come back to say, you know, I need to be unapologetically myself."
"But it was something that I knew that I wanted for my life. And I also knew that I had a career that I loved as well and that that was very important to me."

Blunt Force Trauma
By shows

On March 28, 2021, Faith Ely was found lifeless on the side of a dark Oklahoma highway, her death quickly being ruled a hit and run. But the evidence doesn’t line up. The injuries don’t tell a clear story. And the more you dig, the harder it becomes to make sense of the official narrative. What should be a straightforward accident begins to feel anything but…
