"Nikki Stone learned many valuable lessons on her journey toward Olympic Gold. In When Turtles Fly, not only does she share these lessons, but she also shares stories and wisdom from an amazing array of successful sports and business people. Some of them are world famous, and some you may never have heard of, but each story is equally compelling. If you can't find many valuable lessons in this book, then you just aren't searching very hard."
