My Bike, Love, and Empowerment with Gracia Sotomayor (The Big Talk Academy)
The Big Talk with Tricia BroukShow Notes
In this episode, I'm super excited for you to hear from Gracia Sotomayor. You may remember Gracia from her appearance on the podcast last November in Episode 707, where we talked about pursuing your dreams, no matter how unconventional.
Born in Lima, Peru, Gracia discovered artistic cycling through a magazine photo and was captivated by the concentration and control required. With no resources available in Spanish, she taught herself and eventually moved to Germany to master the sport. She has competed in the UCI Cycling World Championships and became the first person to translate the official rulebook into Spanish.
As an ambassador for artistic cycling, Gracia has promoted the sport across Latin America and been featured in international media. Through her speaking, she shares how embracing inner power, taking unconventional paths, and helping others can lead to personal transformation and lasting impact.
In her inspiring talk, "My Bike, Love, and Empowerment," she explores:
Building self-trust through challenging yourself
Making fear a companion rather than a barrier, and aligning your actions with your dreams
How personal transformation can ripple outward to create societal impact
Why breaking free from limiting beliefs is ongoing work

In this episode, I'm sharing one of the most underrated skills in coaching, directing, and leadership — and it's probably not what you think. It's not a strategy, technique, or even experience. It's detachment. Tune in to discover: Why you don't need to fix things when a client falls apart in front of you, and what to do instead
