  • Summary

  • TikTok sensation and Paralympic gold medallist Anastasia Pagonis joins A Winning Mindset for a fun-filled chat on all things success and defying expectations. 

    Pagonis, who has built over a million followers across social media, made her medal- winning debut at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games, but it is away from the swimming pool that she continues to break barriers. A global role model for persons with a visual impairment, the US swimmer brings her joyous attitude to offer words of wisdom for others. 

    Listen to this episode to take inspiration from Anastasia and to understand how the actions of others – in her case her coach – can open opportunities in life that you never expected. 

    A Winning Mindset, an award-winning partnership between the International Paralympic Committee and Allianz, is a fascinating journey into the minds of Paralympians, who share experiences that can benefit your own personal and professional life.
