Nastia Liukin became a five-time Olympic medalist and tied for the third-highest tally of World Championship medals by any U.S. gymnast all before retiring in her early 20s. However, it was facing the lowest and most embarrassing moments of her career that taught her what it truly means to be great. Nastia shares why strong character helps you win in sports, and in life on this episode of Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu.
