Extreme You: Step Up. Stand Out. Kick Ass. Repeat.

As a child, Sarah Robb O’Hagan dreamed she could be a champion. Her early efforts failed to reveal a natural superstar, but she refused to settle for average. Through dramatic successes and epic fails, she studied how extraordinary people in sports, entertainment and business set and achieve extremely personal goals. Sarah became an executive at Virgin Atlantic and Nike, and despite being fired twice in her twenties, she went on to become the global president of Gatorade and of Equinox—as well as a wife, mother, and endurance athlete.

In every challenging situation, personal or professional, individuals face the pressure to play it safe and conform to the accepted norms. But doing so comes with heavy costs: passions stifled, talents ignored, and opportunities squelched. The bolder choice is to embrace what Sarah calls Extreme You: to confidently bring all that is distinctive and relevant about yourself to everything you do.

Inspiring, surprising, and practical, Extreme You is her training program for becoming the best version of yourself.

Based on her own story and insights from some of the world’s most successful people, Sarah’s training program will show you how to:

• Turn Failure into Fuel: Learn how getting fired twice in her twenties became the ultimate training ground for Sarah’s greatest successes.
• Discover Your Unique Strengths: Uncover the distinctive talents you’ve ignored and stop paying the heavy price of playing it safe.
• Ignite Your Magic Drive: Build the stamina and confidence to power through any challenge that comes your way, personal or professional.
• Play Your Specialist Game: Go from average to world-class by focusing your skills to change the game in your industry.

As a child, Sarah Robb O’Hagan felt destined to become a champion, but her early efforts at sports, in school, and in music failed to reveal a natural superstar. Unwilling to settle for average, she learned through a series of dramatic successes and epic failures to follow her own extremely personal path to success.

Sarah climbed the corporate ladder at Virgin Atlantic, Nike, Gatorade, and Equinox—also becoming a wife, mother, and endurance athlete-—and though in her twenties she was fired twice, in her thirties she led the turnaround of a $5 billion Gatorade sports drink business. Her approach has stemmed from personal experience and inspiration from the band of highly accomplished “Extremers” she met along the way: entrepreneurs, corporate leaders, TV personalities, an Olympic champion downhill skier, a former secretary of state, and even a world-famous tattoo artist. These Extremers helped her recognize that success doesn’t come from conforming, hiding weaknesses, or reaching some preplanned destination. Instead, the Extreme You approach is to continuously develop yourself—warts and all—to the max, and to tap your true potential and find your own greatness.

In every challenging situation, personal or professional, we feel pressure to conform to accepted norms. But doing so comes with heavy costs: passions stifled, talents ignored, and opportunities squelched. The bolder choice is to embrace Extreme You: to bring all that is distinctive and relevant about yourself to everything you do, and to bring out the Extreme in the people and the culture around you.

Inspiring, practical, and laugh-out-loud funny, Extreme You is Sarah’s training program for developing the drive, originality, and fierce attitude to become the best version of you.
