An Olympic Champion's Mindset for Overcoming Fear | Allyson Felix | TED

[@sandilekubheka9140]

‘That feeling of being terrified is your invitation to create change’ Powerful 👌🏽

[@Damnsaburna]

Wow wow wow wow she opened the door and jammed it open for every woman behind her. Absolutely amazing she is such a role model!

[@gretskycompton]

Brilliant presentation- lead from the heart and you will always take everyone else with you ❤️

[@irinachuchueva3181]

She is pure inspiration! Love her!

[@SadeBurrell]

She’s a leader on and off the track. She’s so inspiring!

[@AbiyeKetema]

Yes, remember when they dropped the baton because another team had contact with her and made sure she suggested for them to go ahead and finish it so they have a chance to protest it later. That was Allyson's leadership that helped us win the gold.

Thank you for this. Beauty. To stand up when you have no idea what lies for you on the other side. So grateful.

True greatness comes not from self-aggrandizement, but from answering the call to greater service.

Allyson Felix is total inspiration. Proud of you Allyson.

[@nanshans1999]

What a fantastic women she is!!She can stand up to the big brands and to be a Olympic champion as a mother.She even spoken a short speech for us in TED.I think most fo the men could't do the things as she did.

[@robertgarrison7836]

Absolutely, posititutly, a fine person. Took her gifts and re-distributed them. I admire this philosphy--and you don't need more than whomever you are to exhibit that attitude. Athletics is about the Heart of a Champion, more than championship deeds. Winning specifications and data will come and go....so just be tour own champion! GOOD ON YOU, ALLYSON.

[@faithellis2010]

Excellent heart-warming presentation Allison! Thanks for being so real, and so very authentic. What an amazingly fantastic speaker you are!!! 💥💥💥

Thank you Allyson for such a powerful and impactful legacy you shared in your presentation! What an inspiration you are to women everywhere. Congrats on your success and all your achievements. You are simply powerful and make me feel proud to be a woman.

So powerful and inspiring ! Thank you Allyson ❤️

Anyone else feel like they can conquer the world now? 😊 I am a huge fan of Track and Field but had no idea that female athletes were facing these issues on these levels. Thank you for sharing and taking a stand!

[@AbiyeKetema]

Really? Allyson boycotted Nike and that was big.

[@latashaberkley5000]

We need more females standing up for females at every age, in every stge in life and for the future of where females can go! Mrs. Felix, thank you, TED thank you, for this message! Please keep speaking up, so we can inspire others to show up, stand up and power up!

I have lost track of my future and I don't have enough courage to find a new path. But, now I will.

She came to Wichita Falls to speak at church, not mine but i just had to hear her speak, it was a wonderful life changing experience!!! 🙏🏽🌻❤️

[@ethandalton6480]

I like how Allyson just casually throws out there that she's a 6 time Olympic Champion, a 16 time world champion and a world record holder 😂

[@thecharger98]

She had to to show that Nike’s policies didn’t make exceptions for status.

She is simply the best!

She's ProLife and pro-choice, I Love it

[@ethandalton6480]

@@JHL751 how can you be pro life and pro choice?

[@JHL751]

@@ethandalton6480 she's ProLife because she let her baby live regardless of her career, she's pro choice because she choose not to abort her baby just because she was a stellar athlete, SHE KEPT HER BABY AND HER CAREER, women need to stop thinking that having a baby will ruin their life, she's telling you in her speech she's ProLife!

Love the solution she came up with to solve this problem and dived right back in as an athlete. Hope she has shoes with arch support, because I would love to support her business. Women supporting women in all forms ❣️💪

Thank you Allyson ❤️ I had to hold up my tears as I was listening to your speech. Thank you so much for being an inspiration 🤍

3:00 This lady is spot on! I love this so much 👏 ♥️

[@SLEEPY-CELESTIAL]

I love this presentation with all my heart as a man I will never understand how women give birth but I can say I do support women when it comes to Athletics and anything that they do anybody that dislike this video must not even be a living because we all were born from a womb and we will all have mothers who cares and cherish us understand that from her perspective from a lot of woman perspective to give life it cost them so much❤🔥

[@ebenezernarh4855]

Wooow. Amazing delivery. You stood for change the right way

[@delphinelisabeth]

I feel so aggravated that an athelete like her had to even face this ... She sure did give it to them! Kudos to you Allyson, role mole!

[@Cabledeluz1977]

“I feared people would know of the life I had growing inside of me!” That’s right! It is a life that grows in the womb!

[@WhiteSpatula]

It’s wonderful to hear that more people in boardrooms are standing up to call heartless demands out by name, that CEOs with inhuman plans are being told exactly where they’ve crossed the line, and that no contract stipulations can obligate honest people to become liars. -Phill, Las Vegas

Two years later Nikes valuation is dropping. I love how she went out and made her own company. And created the first nursy at the 2024 Olympics She is an incredible runner and role model. I always loved watching her race.

This is a Huge problem in competitive sports. The biggoted sports community against the new life in sports. This is a classic way of giving the bird to the big guns, I am proud of MS Felix. She is an inspiration not only to woman, but fathers also, the father brings a child to the Olympic games , To See it's Mother compete at the world level. How man world class women have been denied equal access to their sport. I am proud to see this finally happing

Standing up against Nike was awesome, but as an only profit focused company, I didn't expect more from them :)

Must be nice when courage and hard work are rewarded. I did the work for 30+ years, but the pot 'o gold just didn't materialize. Now that twilight is coming, I can see how destitution and grave misfortune can prevent ANYone from 'rising'. 🙂 The good news is... my suffering won't last much longer. 🐲✨🐲✨🐲✨

It is true that many women face this choice. Those that force that choice don't respect women as a whole, it should be a part of their contract. If they refuse to have a pregnancy clause, we need to know their names. The clause needs to be available on the web pages so that we can view it before we make purchases. I just learned about her shoes and look forward to supporting this company. Went to the web site looking for a 'we know our place' sticker, t-shirt because I'm not yet ready for shoes.

This title is like what you see as a meme in conservative circles 😂 Edit: They’ve changed the title, fair enough

[@joshnarode4426]

At 3:47 - ageism is inserted in the conversation. Wow! Really? The radical notion that as one (man or woman) ages they become less effective and relevant in elite sports. So athletes at 56, who are no longer competing, should get the same contracts they got at 26 when they were winning gold medals? Sure why not.

[@An-eb8uk]

But she wasn’t even old at the time lol? Nor were her performances declining. You’re reaching

[@joshnarode4426]

@@An-eb8uk She WAS old at the time. She was 32, which for an elite track athlete is old. Usain Bolt's last Olympics was 2016 Rio - he was 30. She made a blanket statement about capitalism and ageism. I'll be the first to say capitalism lacks compassion, but what is the expectation here? That a company continue paying athletes at the same level regardless of age and anticipated performance? Nike thought Andre Agassi was over the hill and they dropped him. He went to Adidas.

[@An-eb8uk]

@@joshnarode4426 Don’t know if you watch T&F but many of the top athletes are 30+. And Usain is a completely different story. He stated prior to Rio he was retiring afterwards. His body was destroyed so HE chose to retire at 30. Allyson on the other hand was planning to continue and still running well. She literally medaled at Worlds the year before. That did not warrant a 70% contract reduction. I understand a reduction if someone is obviously slowing down-but she wasn’t.
