Maddison Illsley: Bobsleigh, Engineering and a Success Mindset

Maddison Illsley is a member of the Great Britain Women’s Bobsleigh team. Her debut in the sport was a memorable one for her when she and pilot at the time, Nikki McSweeney, achieved a wider podium finish at their first competitive international race together in Lillehammer, Norway last year.  Maddison juggles her athletic pursuits while also managing her career as an engineer. In this episode Maddison and Jamie talk about what it felt like during her first bobsleigh run, how she excels at her career as an engineer and as a national athlete and how breaking her back at a young age helped develop her "never quit" attitude.
