Sailfaster: The Podcast For Racing Sailors

In this episode of Sailfaster, we’re joined by Sweta Shervegar — one of India’s most accomplished sailors and a silver medalist at the 2018 Asian Games in the 49erFX. Sweta shares her journey from starting out with the Sea Cadets to competing on the international stage, and how she balances her life as both a professional sailor and a medical doctor. At the heart of our conversation is the role of mindset in sailing: Sweta opens up about the power of mental preparation, resilience, and focus, not only in her own racing but also in how she coaches the next generation of young sailors. Her passion, clarity, and commitment to the sport shine through in every word.
