Cassie Hawrysh

Found a friend at field-level. He's pretty Ace 😜; he’s also an excellent dancer, an impeccable dresser, and is great with kids!! Thanks, @bluejays - and what an epic game!

Happiness is an inside job. \\ Read more about my latest & greatest in a recent Q&A session with the “All hustle, No quit.” rockstars at @teamunsunghero 💪🏼 (link in my bio)

⚡️Black & yellow, black & yellow!What a thrilling double-overtime win for the @londonlightning tonight against the @stjohnsedge. I may have a new fave sport team ⚡️ #GetStruck

The speed of life gives us chances to make excuses. Instead, define your goals. Take pause & realize, even one stone at a time, you really can move mountains. • • • 📷: @yuhki3 for @ryu_apparel #beautifultough #respectyouruniverse

Don’t stop retrieving! 🚫🤚🏼🐕 Hold on to that feeeeeeeling! (I may have had a treat for extra incentive ... but @winston_retriever is a total gentleman & won’t say one way or another.) #PuppyLove

Find someone who looks at you like I look at those 1KG bags of Cadbury mini-eggs. 🍫🥚🐰

If you change the way you look at things - the things you look at, change. 🙃

Look in the mirror. THAT’S your competition! 💪🏼 My last 6 months+ have been packed with hyper speed growth & change, but in a number of ways I felt like I was standing still - it was tricky to understand at the time, but perhaps it was the only way I could truly see my path. As such, I am in the midst of building out my next big challenge. It will mean embracing reality, facing mega vulnerability and serving up a large dose of whoop-ass 🍑, but I’m ready. Stay tuned, and hit me up if YOU have been thinking about pressing the reset button on some element in your world. No need to go alone! (I’ve been recruiting amazing peeps to help, too).

Full circle moment. From my very first skeleton school (learning how to ride a terrifyingly simple-looking sled) head first; battling up the ranks to proudly represent Canada on the world stage alongside incredible teammates and friends, to ultimately, now transferring those lessons and abilities as a Coach on the other side of the sled - for many of the very same individuals I raced against and grew with, along the way. It’s an incredible feeling! Congrats to all the sliders from near & far on a truly, unforgettable season. I’ll see you on the ice again, very soon. 💀

Powder to the people.✌🏼

Surprise! Happy International Women’s Day to all the incredible females in my tribe & to those of you I have yet to meet. Quick reminder (for us all): YOU are the most powerful part of your success: Get out of your own way; be your own #1 fan. Suffocate the B.S. - no one can stop you!

Just wait and see...

‪Often, the toughest battle is between what you think in your head & what you feel in your heart. Battle on warrior! 💪🏼‬ • • • @ryu_apparel 📷: @yuhki3 #BeautifulTough #RespectYourUniverse

We really are stronger, together. 💕 Hi lovers, I wrote a little something for @locallaundry [link in my bio] to help inspire even more national pride as we cheer on #TeamCanada - give it a read and feel free to share who in your world helps YOU be the best version of yourself.

I try not to laugh at my own jokes ... but we all know I’m hilarious! 😂 • • • 📷: @yuhki3 for @ryu_apparel #beautifultough #respectyouruniverse #photoshoot #vancity #cassiehawrysh #athlete #laughing #neverserious #allthefeelings #duffle #gym #fitfam #catchfeels #bagbeautifying #girlswholift #fashion

“From the peaks of the Rocky Mountains, across the prairie skies; into the depths of the Atlantic and through the unparalleled beauty everywhere between - Canadians are undeniably a part of great deal more than icicles & apologies. At our core we are a nation of freedom, of inclusivity; of victory and compassion. We possess a deeply rooted respect for our past & believe in honouring our future. “Team Canada” courses through all of our veins, and I’m proud to help showcase that unity as an ambassador of the #WeAllPlayForCanada campaign. True north strong! 🇨🇦💪🏼 Today & everyday. Go Canada! Go!” -Cassie Hawrysh, Team Canada Skeleton / Hometown: Brandon, Manitoba.

Yes - this IS real life. #OnlyInWhistler 📷: @bradflowerss
