In today’s episode we have decided to talk about the different transitions athletes experience, specifically focusing on transitioning out of competitive sport.
Now we know every single athletes transition out of competitive sport is so different, however today we would like to share some of our experiences, thoughts and feelings with regards to our own transitions in the hope that you can relate or take away parts that can support you in your own or the people around you’s lives… no matter what your role in sport is!
We will also have a special guest joining us a little further into the podcast called Emma Vickers, Emma has been involved in table tennis for 24 years. She was a senior international table tennis player, and multiple British champion and has competed for various clubs across Europe.

Of course, the first episode of season 4 had to be an interview with our new co-host Hannah Miley!
Currently stepping into the world of the swammer, Hannah, multiple Olympian, shares her story within the world of competitive swimming, which is truly nothing short of inspirational.
From the first Christmas not worrying about having to train, handling injuries and illnesses, junior to senior transitions, the mental highs and lows that come within a professional swimmers career, the relationship between herself and her coach who was also her dad (Patrick Miley) and what it’s truly like having Scotland’s best dog… this episode really has it all and there is definitely something every single person could take from it.
I really feel like we only scratched the surface of Hannah’s experiences… but luckily as Hannah is now the new co-host, there will be plenty more to gain from this incredible person!
I hope you enjoy this episode, and we look forward to bringing you some fantastic episodes for season 4!

New episode out now - The Menstrual cycle.
We are both so passionate about making a difference to people’s sporting journey and about sharing our own experiences to help others.
Taking about the women’s menstrual cycle can sometimes be seen as quite a taboo subject and not easy to open about but I think the more we talk and give education about it can hopefully help future athletes looking for more support.
So this week we talk to Dr Natalie Brown. Nat is doing some incredible work in elite sport and in particular with female athletes. She is leading the research with Female athletes and the impact of the menstrual cycle on sport participation and performance.
We absolutely loved recording this episode and hope that you found it useful.
Please share with any athletes/ coaches/ families that you think may benefit from listening to this episode.

This week we tackle what it’s really like going through injury and illness in sport.
At times, we tend to only focus on the great moments but we want to talk about our experiences through injury and illness and what kept us motivated throughout these times.
As always, we love hearing your own stories and experiencing. So keep tagging and sharing us in your stories. We appreciate it all.
We’ve got our first guest episode coming very soon and it’s a great one, so keep an eye out for that!

Calling all Athletes, parents and coaches, this one’s for you.. 📣
This week on the honest athletes podcast we talk about how we transitioned from junior to senior level sport.
The adjustments and changes that we made to try and further our swimming careers. Also, how we decided which swimming programme was right for us.
We are so amazed at the response we’ve had from our episodes so far! Thank you.

This week we dive into what made us call time on our swimming careers and life beyond the sport.
An open and honest chat about how our lives changed away from competitive sport both mentally and physically. Finding our new passions away from the pool and the physical changes that we have gone through.
We talk about how it really felt leaving a sport that we’d dedicated our whole lives too and if more can be done to support athletes away from sport.
We really hope you enjoy it and we’d love to hear what you think and about your own experiences.
Don’t forget we have a new episode out every week, so stay tuned!

Welcome to our first episode of the honest athletes podcast!
Both of us are looking forward to opening up about our own professional swimming careers, including what it's like to compete for Great Britain, as well as the emotional, hilarious and raw moments that we experienced from our time in the pool.
The idea for the podcast is to be as real and honest as possible, so this really will be an unfiltered and uncut podcast series, that we hope you enjoy listening to!
