About this listen
Lilou Ruel (@lilouruel) has been on my radar since a video of her crushing at age 11 popped up ten years ago. Since then, she's gone on to dominate the competition circuit, become a Red Bull sponsored athlete, hit tons of NBDs (including first female send of the iconic Manpower gap), and establish herself as a creative visionary in the parkour space.
In this episode, we dig into her early training years and the pressure she felt to perform after her early success...but also how that pressure helped shape a unique outlook on parkour that combines an Olympian's training approach with an eye for photography and fashion. Her perspective on fashion in particularly really stood out to me in this one, and I'd love to hear what y'all think in the comments.
Also, please give Lilou some love for exploring a few incredibly nuanced topics in English - I really appreciated her willingness to get out of her comfort zone on this one and she killed it!
