Burrell Society Lecture with Extreme Skier

As part of this term’s Burrell Society Lecture series, extreme skier, Rachel Findler, led today’s talk about when falling is not an option.

Rachel shared ways to overcome fear to achieve your potential, work through stress and pressure at the top, set goals and deal with failure. Rachel also spoke about how it’s crucial to work on mindfulness and have a positive mantra in whatever you aim to achieve.

The pupils also heard about Rachel’s tales from the mountains, including dodging an avalanche to being stalked by a mountain lion.

We’d like to thank Rachel for sharing her experiences and knowledge!
