Today on The Championship Mindset Podcast we speak with World Champion and Olympic Gold Medalist, Laura Wilkinson. Laura began her athletic career as a gymnast before switching to diving as a teenager. Six months before the 2000 Summer Olympics, Laura suffered a serious foot injury in training that kept her off the platform for several months. During that time, Laura used visualization to practice her dives and prepare for competition. She would compete and win the US trials just a couple weeks after returning to practice and would go on the win gold despite not being fully healed. In 2017, after nine years of retirement, Laura returned to the platform and placed 2nd at the US Nationals. We caught up with Laura as she was preparing for the US trails and hopefully a spot on her 4th Olympic team. We hope you enjoy our conversation with Laura Wilkinson.
