Adam Rippon:
Need I say more? Charm, charisma, commitment to his dreams and comedic timing … how can you not love Adam?
Most of you know Adam from the 2018 Winter Olympics, where he won the bronze medal with Team USA, while also winning the hearts of America, and the world and that matter. How did he do this? Well, he showed up as his true self, unapologetically, and claimed the Olympic experience that he had been chasing for years.
Adam’s path to the Games was not easy, and he handled adversity with determination, courage, a healthy dose of humour, and by doing the work in the dark so that he could shine in the light. He sure did.
Adam also made the bold decision to come out publicly back in 2015, which made him the first openly gay athlete to represent the United States at the Olympics. He takes the global stage, both on and off of the ice, to speak out in support of LGBTQ+ rights and the freedom to be oneself.
Adam empowers millions around the world by owning who he is, but this wasn’t always easy for him. It took work, setbacks, and leaving his comfort zone for Adam to become the confident and fearless man that we so admire. Guess what. You have this in you too, and Adam’s going to tell you how to bring it out, by sharing his story. It all started with a deep quote on a Lululemon bag.
