7: Sophie Carrigill: How Challenges Can Be Exciting To Overcome

  • Summary

  • Sophie is an incredible wheelchair basketball athlete. She has represented GB for 7 years, competing at 4 Senior European Championships, 2 Senior World Championships and the Rio Paralympics. The GB Women’s Team are currently the World and European Silver Medalists. 

    12 years ago Sophie was involved in a life changing car accident which left her paralysed from the waist down. She is a phenomenal woman, her upbeat positive excitable energy is infectious and her mindset and view on life is seriously refreshing. We discuss how she is grateful for the life she is living, how everything happens for a reason and how she is so proud of her journey, having to learn, at only age 16, to navigate her life completely differently. We also talk about the importance of accepting who you while struggling to change identity and how this has been her driving force into becoming hugely successful and an amazing role model. 
    I really hope you love this episode as much as me, I left feeling seriously determined and able to really achieve anything I put my mind to as well as believing even more so that everything happens for a reason. After chatting with her boyfriend Josh Landmann in episode 4 and seeing how highly he spoke of her, I had to get her on the podcast because I was blown away - what a power couple!!
