Inside the Olympic Village & the Mindset...

Linda Christina Karam
About this episode

Sabah el kheir! In this week’s episode, we’re joined by Laetitia Aoun, a Taekwondo Olympian and doctor.We talk about managing two demanding worlds, balancing studies, training, competitions and medicine, while learning how to set priorities and make difficult decisions. Laetitia opens up about breaking her thumb and undergoing surgery during a particularly difficult period, feeling overwhelmed at university and in training, and questioning whether she would have to let go of Taekwondo.She shares how taking a step back, prioritizing her studies and keeping an open mind ultimately led her to the Olympics. We get into the butterfly effect of the choices that brought her there, her “why not?” mindset and her belief that everything happens for a reason.Laetitia also takes us inside the Olympic Village, from training and competitions to friendships, rooms, routines and everything in between.Most importantly, we get to know Laetitia beyond the Olympian and doctor, who she is, what drives her and the mindset that got her here.Follow Linda:TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lindachristina Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lindachristinaa/YouTube: www.youtube.com/⁠@lindachristina⁩ ⁠Business Inquiries: linda@sabahelkheirpodcast.com or lindachristinabusiness@gmail.comFollow Laetitia:TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@laetitia_aounInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/laetitia_aoun/
