In the Extraordinary Tales With Seb Coe podcast, the star driver opened up regarding including her sister in his business.

He said, “Yeah for sure, my sister really, I brought her on last year to help navigate and guide in the non-profit world. She’s the one that comes up with a lot of these ideas of, ‘Hey, do you want to be a part of this? Do you want to do this?’. We look at how that aligns with our core values and it makes sense. I sit there and I give the green light or the red light on a lot of things. That’s important to us. For me, we’ve entertained the idea of, ‘How do we attract more minorities in the sport’. What will it take to give those kids a feeling like they have what it takes? Give them a shot, an opportunity. That’s kind of the bigger picture. How do we put all that together, the funding, partnerships, sponsors?”
