🎯 What happens when your career-defining role ends overnight? For many athletes, it’s not just a job—it’s an identity. 🧠

Former Olympian Rach Taylor shares how retirement from elite sport meant losing her tribe, her purpose and her sense of self in one fell swoop.

Confidence in sport isn’t always what it seems. It’s a delicate balance, and learning to navigate it can teach you so much about yourself and about how you approach your next chapter.

How do you balance confidence and humility in your own journey?

🎧 Hear more of Charlie’s insights on the full episode.

Behind every athlete’s success story are the sacrifices most people never see.

Nekoda missed proms, weekends out, and the usual milestones, all traded for early mornings, competitions, and travel.

But what stands out most is the support she had along the way. Two strong women: her mom and her coach, who pushed her when needed and pulled her back when she drifted.

It’s a reminder that behind every dream, there’s a team keeping you grounded.
