Description

In 2018, the International Olympic Committee recognized Dr. Seun Adigun as the first African to compete in both the Summer and Winter Olympic Games. What isn’t immediately clear in the recognition is the Dr. Seun founded the Nigerian bobsled team, making her team Nigeria’s first-ever Winter Olympians. Nor does it represent that she learned the bobsled after an Olympic-level career in track and field. Today, Dr. Seun works professionally as a chiropractor and biomechanist with the mission of revolutionizing sports medicine. And her academic accomplishments are as impressive and rigorous as her athletic accolades. Listen to my chat with Dr. Seun on today’s episode!

Hi! I am Layla Shaikley (@laylool), I co-founded a tech company and I am also visibly Muslim. So, my identity has been front and center throughout my life and career. I have lived a lifetime of reclaiming my narrative. This is my podcast where I will interview fellow Muslim guests with interesting career paths reclaiming theirs too. I'll share insights on my journey throughout the way. Listen if you want career inspo, life inspo, or just to know what’s up. https://www.instagram.com/laylool/ https://www.tiktok.com/@laylool https://www.instagram.com/muslimsdoingthings/ Views are my own
