Nikki Stone: When Turtles Fly

Start: 03/17/2010 7:00 pm

1998 Winter Olympics gold medalist Nikki Stone visits with her book When Turtles Fly: Secrets of Successful People Who Know When to Stick Their Necks Out. Two years before her big win in Nagano, Japan (in inverted aerial skiing), Stone suffered from a chronic spinal injury that prevented her from even standing. Still she went on to earn 35 World Cup medals, 14 World Cup titles, 4 national titles, and a world championship. Stone shares the techniques she used to overcome her hardship, helping readers realize and reach their own personal and professional goals. When Turtles Fly takes a few of Stone’s key secrets to success and shows how these simple rules can be found in the inspiring stories of 40 other talented individuals, including designer Tommy Hilfiger, Olympian Shaun White, Prince Albert of Monaco, Celebrity Chef Todd English, Olympian Lindsey Vonn, and more.
