Michelle Kwan On Olympic Pressure: "The Pursuit Of Perfection Is Nearly Impossible" | Forbes

The most decorated figure skater in U.S. history, Michelle Kwan is no stranger to the intensity of professional competition or the unprecedented pressure Olympic athletes face. The two-time Olympic medalist, five-time World Champion and nine-time U.S. champion sat down with Moira Forbes to discuss strategies for achieving a peak performance mindset and how she’s finding new purpose after her Olympic career.

As part of her next chapter, Kwan will host the upcoming documentary podcast “Summer of Gold.” Produced by TOGETHXR and Dear Media, the series will revisit the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta through the lens of the female Olympians who dominated that summer, and comes ahead of the 25th anniversary of the Games.

The Takeaway is a weekly series bringing together top leaders who distill decades of experience into the essential tools, practical advice, and timely insight to fuel your career growth and help navigate these defining times. Hosted by Moira Forbes. Tune in live every Wednesday at 12:00pm ET.
