Whenever I speak to students, there’s always that one question during the Q&A… “Can you do a backflip?” What follows is usually a mix of shock, excitement, and pressure to prove it 😂 Even though I’m one year retired, I’m happy to say I’ve still got it 💪🏾 (and plan to keep it for as long as possible!!) Being able to do a back somersault always comes in handy as a great party trick 😅 It was an amazing evening speaking at Cranleigh School, where I shared my Olympic journey x3 🇯🇲 I broke down my AIMS Performance Framework — helping the students understand what’s truly possible when you combine ambition, imagineering, mindset, and self-belief. I wanted to show them that success isn’t limited by background or appearance. If you work hard, believe in yourself, and stay resilient - no matter what other people may think or say - the colour of your skin doesn’t define your potential. #motivation #selfbelief #mindset #leadership #AIMSframework

Wow! Impressive! And even more impressive Yona is the way that you’re opening up perspectives of what’s possible for their lives! 🙌🏽

I hope you'll still get to do these sessions alongside coaching. As an educator, I can't explain how important these kind of exchanges are with the kids.
