In this powerful episode titled "Evolution", three-time Olympian and world champion sailor Paige Railey opens up about the profound challenges that tested her limits beyond the water.
From a devastating 2014 cycling accident that fractured her spine, knocked out teeth, and triggered long-term pain and recovery, to battling a chronic autoimmune disease that forced her off the boat and into one of the darkest periods of her life, Paige shares the raw struggles of physical setbacks, health battles, and the mental toll that nearly derailed her elite career.
Yet through it all, her extraordinary resilience shines: she fought back to compete in multiple Olympics, reframed her mindset to focus on the present moment, and discovered deeper strength in adversity. Paige reflects on the lessons learned—about perseverance, self-compassion, and redefining success—and how these experiences have transformed her, not just as a sailor, but as a person now building a lasting legacy.
Beyond medals and titles, she's inspiring others facing their own hardships, proving that true evolution comes from rising stronger, giving back, and turning pain into purpose. A moving conversation about unbreakable spirit evolving into something even more powerful.
