Charlotte Pierce isn’t just building strength for herself, she’s using it to help others rebuild theirs.

In this conversation, I’m joined by Charlotte Pierce, a world silver medallist in weightlifting, law student, humanitarian and aspiring Olympian. Charlotte’s story is one of extraordinary strength, not just in the physical sense, but in the resilience, grit and hope she has shown through some incredibly difficult chapters in her life.

After discovering weightlifting during a challenging period, Charlotte found not only a sport she loved, but a source of peace, community and possibility. Since then, she has gone on to represent Great Britain, win a world silver medal, recover from a serious brain injury, and set her sights on the LA Olympics.

In this conversation, we talk about:

• How weightlifting became a source of peace, confidence and opportunity
• Recovering from a serious brain injury and learning to go slow to go fast
• Charlotte’s Olympic ambitions and what training looks like now

Using lived experience to support young people facing homelessness, poverty, mental health challenges and domestic violence.
