In Episode 29 of the Between 2 GoalPosts Podcast, Ryan and Dylan sit down with Paris 2024 Paratriathlon Gold Medalist Hailey Danz. Hailey shares her incredible journey from being diagnosed with bone cancer at age 12 and losing her leg at 14, to discovering her identity and reclaiming her power through Paralympic sports. We discuss her athletic progression from winning Silver in Rio and Tokyo to finally securing Gold in Paris, overcoming imposter syndrome, and earning true self-belief through daily consistency. Plus, Hailey gives us an inside look at Paralympic Village food (including her hot take on the viral Paris chocolate muffin), recovering from catastrophic equipment failures abroad, and why adopting a "Ted Lasso" goldfish mentality is key to long-term success.
