    In this episode of Flame Bearers, host Manasi Joshi speaks with Canadian paraswimming icon Katie Cosgriffe on reclaiming her purpose after a life-altering 2021 diagnosis, leaning into the philosophy of turning life’s hardest trials into its greatest triumphs, and navigating the relentless mental and physical fatigue of elite training.
