UNEDITED: Stop to Congratulate Yourself
In this episode, we sprint into the life of Jodie Williams, a 3x Olympian from Great Britain, beginning with her early days as an unstoppable young athlete. Jodie recalls her first taste of victory, winning races at school sports days and even being pitted against older boys in a heptathlon when “no one could beat me.” That moment fueled a drive that would guide her to track and field, where she quickly became a standout.
That said, her journey to the Olympics wasn’t without setbacks. She reflects on the heartbreak of missing the London Olympics due to a torn hamstring and feeling overwhelmed in her first Olympic experience in Rio. But by Tokyo, she had found a new mindset: “I just looked up... there was no crowd, but I felt at peace. I thought, 'Wow, I’ve done it.'”
Jodie opens up about the highs and lows of pursuing her dream, describing how fear has been ever-present: “Fear is a huge part of it… if you're dreaming that big, there’s going to be a lot of fear involved. That’s part of the journey.” Learning to manage her inner dialogue, she says, has been essential, as she’s worked to “make friends” with her inner critic and celebrate each small victory. Jodie shares how wherever you are in your journey, she wants you to stop to congratulate yourself today. "Say, 'Good job for getting out of bed, for getting dressed,' because sometimes, that’s the biggest achievement of the day."
Beyond her athletic career, Jodie founded the Listen Journal, a platform for women to share their stories authentically. She’s also found a passion for coffee, seeing it as a way to build community and raise awareness around its history.

I love this😊😊
Love this. Doesn't matter what team you play for. If a fellow sport player is injured help them out. You all share the love of the sport.
Bro the average man couldn’t pick her up and this woman is like I’ve got this I did it at my wedding with my husband wife.
"So sorry it hurts Mama"
Bro I’d fall in love-
That's what sports are about.

That's beautiful i wish people would see this and learn from it. Beautiful just beautiful
Respekt ist etwas ,was man hat oder nicht.Wer das nicht hat ist leider menschlicher Müll.😮
It is technically illegal for men to be in women's sports given the harm that they can do to women. And it wasn't okay that their gaslighting people to make it okay when it's not. She should have lost her Olympic gold medal and they should have redone it because it's b******* that he was able to get a medal when he's not even allowed in our sports. Again this is happening when why did they hide it to let him do it. Sickening
Bless her x
What sport is it😊
I admire how forthcoming Celina was in telling her story. Courage, persistence, and willingness to do the hardwork made Celina a success. Inspirational! Thanks for sharing. Cheers. Dan.
So well said, @danhanna8610. We completely agree! <3
So sweet
OK WORLD.... THIS IS HOW GOD EXPECTS US TO TREAT EACH OTHER.....WITH RESPECT & LOVE. TO CARRY EACH OTHER❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hey girl. Your shoes match my shirt. I got your back.
She is also very beautiful.
Handsome
She's a good example and role model! To say nothing of her strength n power in being able t carry the much bigger woman!
Why do things like this make me cry?
This made me tear up I love seeing such humanity play out❤️
❤🥹
So happy the one female came to her aide, Hate the fact that the males seemed too slow to act in common decency at least as it can be viewed
I would have asked "So what are we now" 😅😅
Kindness matters! 🙂👍 No matter which team.
Awwww such admiration for these young women ❤❤
And now is a confirmed man and a cheater.
She a hero and very strong
That dudes tough
Accused of being a man? 😂
Disgusting, sickening, disgraceful 😡
I don't see the big deal, he is handsome
Ahh I see know this is a women/lgbq/trans sport propaganda channel
Female athletes don’t draw a crowd because people like watching the highest level of sport which is men’s sport, if more people watched women sports they’d have more sponsors and make more money but unfortunately the draw they need is high level game play but compared to men they can’t compete so it’s not as interesting
“She” has XY chromosomes but female genitalia so she definitely has advantages over XX chromosome females but keep lying I guess
