“Queen of the Snow” — that’s the nickname of Slovakia’s most successful Paralympian, Henrieta Farkašová, who celebrated her 40th birthday this Sunday. From a late start in skiing at 17 to the very top of the global stage, her journey is nothing short of remarkable. With 14 Paralympic medals — 11 of them gold — and 20 World Championship medals, she has secured her place among the sport’s all-time greats. In our interview, she opens up about courage, setbacks, and the challenges she faced growing up — including bullying — as well as the vital role of trust with her guides. She also reflects on the most emotional moments of her career, including winning the Laureus World Sports Award.
