Headwind Conference

Why do planes take off into the wind? Because it's the resistance that allows them to gain altitude. In this inspiring talk, Katy St-Laurent invites us to look at obstacles, trials, and difficult times differently. Through her journey as an athlete, entrepreneur, and woman who has risen many times, she demonstrates that headwinds are not there to slow us down but often to lift us higher. On the bike, I learned that my strength was the headwind, and in life, it was by facing those winds that I took flight. With authenticity, humor, and vulnerability, I share moments when everything seemed to go wrong, but which turned out to be turning points. Like planes, we often take off when we face the wind.
