Taky Marie-Divine Kouamé is a World Champion and 9x French Champion track cyclist, a photographer, an entrepreneur, and so much more. As Marie-Divine shares, “doing other things keeps me sane. It’s not a distraction. It makes me a better athlete.” She recently worked with our co-host Maé-Bérénice Méité on an exciting documentary series following French athletes to the Games.
As we head into the Paris Games in her home country, Marie-Divine has a lot of eyes on her. And she’s ready to meet the moment. In today’s conversation we discuss how Marie-Divine found cycling, how she grounds herself, and her hopes for the future of women’s sports.
