What does it feel like to stand on the edge of a plane at 21,000 feet, looking at the peak of Mount Everest? For most, it’s unimaginable. For Olga Naumova, it’s a day at the “office.”
In this episode, presented by New Balance, we sit down with a woman who redefines the limits of human capability. Fresh off of securing the Guinness World Record for the highest altitude skysurf, the only person to ever do so over Everest, Olga talks about skydiving; ultra-running, building her own fitness brand, and mastering the mental game.
“Do It Scared,” explores a philosophy we can all apply to our lives, whether you’re running your first 5K or jumping out of a plane. Olga opens up about the reality of fear, debunking the myth that elite athletes are “fearless.” Instead, she reveals how she uses that adrenaline to fuel her focus and turn “scary” into “life-changing.”
If you’re an adventurer or a dreamer looking for that extra push, this conversation is packed with actionable insights and inspiration.
