EP52 The Force Within - From Police Officer to Paralympian | Carol Cooke

Published: Oct. 26, 2020, 7:37 p.m.

Strength. \xa0Courage. \xa0Determination. \xa0Resilience. \xa0Spirit.
These words above, belong to Carol Cooke.
Former Toronto Police Officer of 14 years, Carol Cook crossed the globe to call Melbourne, Australia home. All in the name of love.\xa0
Carol shares with us the adventures along the way, what drew her in and out of a life in the police force and the all too many all to brutally delivered hurdles that she sure didn\u2019t let stand in her way of holding a gold medal in her hand.
The accolades are to many to list here, I'd rather you get stuck into conversation... but in a nutshell, Carol is an elite athlete across three different sports. \xa0A Paralympian, dual gold medalist, world champion. \xa0In 2017 she was awarded Victorian Institute of Sport \u2013 The Award of Excellence.\xa0\xa0
She continued to race with another 2 World Championships in 2019. \xa0Dead set legend.
If listening in on this conversation doesn't evoke a little ignition of those 5 words above within you, I'm convinced nothing will. \xa0I sure felt an unexpected level of inspiration myself whilst shooting the breeze with Carol. \xa0
If you\u2019re someone who is sick of being told you won\u2019t make it, lend an ear over here for an hour...
