In this powerful episode of Resilient Minds, we step into the world of Siri Lindley—a woman who has faced life’s most difficult storms and emerged stronger than ever. A two-time world champion triathlete, renowned coach, and keynote speaker, Siri has spent her life pushing boundaries. And her greatest test came not on the racecourse, but in a doctors office, where she was given less than a 5% chance of survival.

Her story isn’t just about winning races—it’s about winning in life.

Siri wasn’t always the confident, inspiring leader she is today. In her early years, she struggled with anxiety and self-doubt, questioning her worth and searching for a sense of belonging. It was through the sport of triathlon that she found herself, and even then, she had to learn the power of presence and self-acceptance.

Then, in 2019, life threw her the ultimate challenge: a diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia. The odds were terrifying. A bone marrow transplant in 2020 became her only hope. Rather than succumbing to fear, Siri chose to go all in—not just on surviving, but on living fully.

Now, approaching her five-year cancer-free anniversary, she reflects on that battle as a moment of transformation. It reinforced what she had always believed: adversity isn’t meant to break you—it’s meant to build you.

Siri doesn’t just talk about resilience; she lives it. Through her experiences, she developed her Five Principles of a Champion Mind, a mindset that helped her push past limits—both physical and emotional:

1️⃣ Own Your Energy – Focus on what you have, not what you lack.

2️⃣ Be Authentic – Decide who you are and live in alignment with that truth.

3️⃣ Be Intentional – Set clear goals and take purposeful action.

4️⃣ Be Present – Deepen connections and live fully in each moment.

5️⃣ Be Grateful – Appreciate the journey, even in the face of hardship.

These principles didn’t just help her survive cancer—they shaped how she approaches every opportunity in life.

Today, Siri pours her energy into empowering others. She runs Believe Ranch and Rescue, where she has saved over 320 horses from slaughter. She’s also sharing her journey through her upcoming book, Finding a Way, with a foreword by Tony Robbins, and her new documentary, Try Me, the Siri Lindley Story.

Her mission? To show others that no matter how impossible the odds may seem, there is always a way forward.

Siri’s story isn’t just hers—it’s an invitation for all of us to step into our own power. She encourages listeners to:

✅ Watch Try Me, the Siri Lindley Story to witness her journey firsthand.

✅ Attend a Tony Robbins event and experience her energy live.

✅ Read Finding a Way for tools and inspiration to transform challenges into triumphs.

Through this episode, Siri reminds us that resilience isn’t about avoiding struggles—it’s about embracing them, learning from them, and rising because of them.

Her story is proof that even in our darkest moments, we can find a way forward.

Thank you for your strength, power, and courage.
