241. Katie Hoff Anderson, Former Pro Swimmer & 3x Olympic Medalist Feb 21, 2023

Show notes

Relentless spirit: It's something Katie Hoff Anderson proudly posesses, She's an 8-time World Champion, 2-time Olympian, and earned a silver and two bronze Olympic medals in swimming — all before a devastating medical diagnosis brought her career to a screeching hault. Once hailed as the "female Michael Phelps," she withstood tremendous pressure and emerged from years of effort with valuable lessons learned on what it takes to succeed and power through bitter disappointment. In today's episode, she's talking to us about how she navigated the highs and lows, what it felt like to transition from being a full-time athlete into the corporate world, how she navigated depression and high expectations, and more.

#HURDLEMOMENT: A Nutritionist On Safe Strategies To Combat Overeating & The Importance Of Grace Feb 15, 2023

Show notes

This episode's going live a few days after a long weekend trip for me, full of gluttony and extravagant meals. I connected with nutritionist and chef Serena Poon to talk about what it really means to "detox" and how we can take care of our bodies after a less-than-nutritious week of indulging. We talk about the importance of grace and a positive inner dialogue, why not to get hung up on a few iffy days of eating, and then she comments on good-for-you habits that can help flip the script and enable you to feel better in your body.
