Hold on tight because this week’s conversation is about to shift into high gear! (I mean, these puns practically write themselves, but trust me, the excitement is real!) I recently had the opportunity for an exhilarating sit-down with Julia Landauer, a trailblazing two-time champion race car driver, motivational powerhouse, and force to be reckoned with on NASCAR's strategy and innovation team. (And her podcast, If I’m Honest, is fantastic). Our girl Julia doesn’t just break barriers; she shatters them.  In this conversation, you will hear her winning strategies for self-advocacy in the male-dominated realm of racing, along with her top tactics for conquering fear. Julia takes us behind the scenes of professional racing, Survivor survival tales, and her work as a professional public speaker, motivating audiences around the world. We also talked about … The unfiltered reality of Julia's journey as a young female racer, and how she navigated biases and stereotypes in the racing world. (Trust me, the lessons here are pure gold!) Raw revelations from her time on Survivor, and how being labeled as "vanilla" shaped her approach to racing and beyond. Julia's battle-tested strategies for conquering fear both on and off the racetrack.  Get ready to be blown away by this conversation. Looking to inject some adrenaline into your next event?
