In this episode of The Align Podcast, I talk with the most successful woman in the history of American open-wheel car racing and serial entrepreneur, Danica Patrick. She tells us all about her journey as a woman in a male-dominated industry and how her career might have affected her experience of femininity. We speak about the stigmas surrounding gender roles and sexuality and how important it is to be in touch with both our feminine and masculine energies. We also discuss our emotional connections with our inner child, how that manifests itself in our relationships and why we need to accept our vulnerabilities in order to trust the people in our lives. How much are you willing to open up in order to truly heal?
Danica Patrick is admired by millions as a trailblazer and especially as a role model for young people, women and men alike, aiming to rise to challenges and pursue their own passions.
As a serial entrepreneur, she has launched successful ventures from apparel to wine, including her American and French labels, Somnium, a collection of fine wines grown in California’s Napa Valley, and Danica Rosé, an elegant bottling from the heart of the Provence region. Recently she debuted her new lifestyle brand VOYANT by Danica, a home scent collection utilizing the functional power of fragrance through essential oils and other natural ingredients.
Danica Patrick continues to prove her multimedia appeal: as a television sports analyst and commentator, as the author of the self-help book Pretty Intense, and as host of her weekly Pretty Intense podcast, interviewing top athletes and celebrities. From her racing days to the present, she remains a popular personality who’s appeared in music videos and commercials, including a record-setting 14 Super Bowl commercials, and has lent her voice to videogames and cartoons such as “The Simpsons” and “South Park.” Equally recognized as a savvy businesswoman as well as a pop culture icon, Danica has landed on numerous “Favorite Female Athlete” and “Most Powerful Women” lists, including Time’s “100 Most Influential People.”
Danica Patrick began her singular journey at a young age. As an IndyCar and then NASCAR driver, she broke barriers and set records as a fierce competitor in the traditionally male-dominated world of motorsports before retiring in 2018. Danica garnered international acclaim by finishing fourth in her very first Indianapolis 500, going on to achieve another first as a female racer with her victory in the IndyCar Series Indy Japan 300 race.
Her unique experience, perspective and charisma make Danica Patrick a coveted speaker for a breadth of corporate, lifestyle, entertainment and sports-related events, from motivational engagements to entrepreneur gatherings.
