About this listen

Annika Lucas knows what it takes to perform at the highest level—on and off the snow. A former Olympic and World Cup cross-country skier for Team Great Britain, Annika has since built a remarkable second act as a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Certified Dementia Practitioner, consultant, and more.


In this episode, Annika opens up about her journey from Olympic athlete to professional and entrepreneur. She shares what it was like to step away from competitive skiing, how she found purpose in supporting active aging, and why she’s passionate about helping athletes re-engage with their sport in new ways. Now, as she returns to the Olympic stage as a commentator, Annika reflects on the importance of identity, reinvention, and finding joy beyond her sport.
