About this title

Synopsis

As a child, Sarah Robb O’Hagan dreamed she could be a champion. Her early efforts failed to reveal a natural superstar, but she refused to settle for average. Through dramatic successes and epic fails, she studied how extraordinary people in sports, entertainment and business set and achieve extremely personal goals. Sarah became an executive at Virgin Atlantic and Nike, and despite being fired twice in her twenties, she went on to become the global president of Gatorade and of Equinox—as well as a wife, mother, and endurance athlete.

In every challenging situation, personal or professional, individuals face the pressure to play it safe and conform to the accepted norms. But doing so comes with heavy costs: passions stifled, talents ignored, and opportunities squelched. The bolder choice is to embrace what Sarah calls Extreme You: to confidently bring all that is distinctive and relevant about yourself to everything you do.

Inspiring, surprising, and practical, Extreme You is her training program for becoming the best version of yourself.

Based on her own story and insights from some of the world’s most successful people, Sarah’s training program will show you how to:

• Turn Failure into Fuel: Learn how getting fired twice in her twenties became the ultimate training ground for Sarah’s greatest successes.
• Discover Your Unique Strengths: Uncover the distinctive talents you’ve ignored and stop paying the heavy price of playing it safe.
• Ignite Your Magic Drive: Build the stamina and confidence to power through any challenge that comes your way, personal or professional.
• Play Your Specialist Game: Go from average to world-class by focusing your skills to change the game in your industry.
