Our last Women’s History Month guest is Dawn Richardson Wilson, a remarkable young woman of many hats. Hailing from Ghana and immigrating to Edmonton, Alberta, Dawn’s journey took a monumental turn that ultimately led her to compete at the 2022 Beijing Olympics. As part of the first Black Canadian women's bobsleigh crew, Dawn made history and captured the hearts of many with her determination and an impressive top eight finish.
With her foundation rooted in a love for sport and fueled by the encouragement of her community, Dawn took a leap of faith into the unknown. She embraced the challenge, knowing that even in the face of rejection, there's value in taking risks and pursuing one's dreams.
Dawn's journey continues to evolve as she sets her current pursuits to track and field, embarking on another chapter in her athletic career. For Dawn, taking chances has been integral to her success. Taking chances means stepping outside of your comfort zone, embracing uncertainty, and being open to new opportunities and experiences.
