A multi-time Canadian Champion who represented Canada in the Tokyo 2020/2021 Olympics in the sport of Canoe Slalom, Haley Daniels, speaks to me today to share her incredible experiences as an athlete and RBC Olympian. She's also currently finishing her degree in Business, Commerce and Entrepreneurship, and preparing for a new career.

We begin to talk about her previous training preparation when it was winter time and how she stayed sane while traveling to different places to train and compete. She also shares with me how they do fundraising to fund their expenses and how she fought for gender equality in the sports she has been for years.

Listening to Haley's journey proves how brave and dedicated an athlete she was. This leads our talk to know more about what athletes really feel and encounter.

As Haley is preparing for something new in her career, she tells me why transitioning is the hardest thing to do and what she has been practicing that will help her reach her goals.

If you are retiring or retired from sports, what's your plan after? Do you struggle with something? 

Watch the full interview and learn more from Haley about how she handles these situations.

A coach who is a multi-sport athlete joins me today to share his experiences working with athletes. He is a cyclist, MS candidate in exercise physiology, and founder of Develo Coaching, Lucas Wall.

I initially ask Lucas how he gets to meet his athletes and start their coaching journey. He mentions various approaches which actually work for him. To add, he is also the coach of our previous guest, Alexey Vermeulen (episode165), and he stresses the different beneficial scenarios they both gained.

If you're new to working with a coach, Lucas has a lot of things to share that involve different approaches he does to help athletes generate high performance, prepare for pre-season, and choose the appropriate fuel.

He also shares his thoughts on why fuel is a limiter, the benefits of practicing fat burning for fuel, and why he encourages his athletes to have plan B for a lot of scenarios.

Today, I sit down with someone who's known as "The Data Guy". He joins us today to share his ideas and wisdom about consistency, performance optimization, data application, and more. He has master's degree in Sports Performance and Human Biology, is the host of the Sports Science and Recovery podcast, a book author, and the founder of Own It Coaching, Justin Roethlingshoefer.

As mentioned above, Justin has been doing a lot of different things. So I come up to think and ask him how did he do what he's been doing and what pushed him to go through these.

From there, he tells me the root of developing his habit and how his life during his younger years has contributed to his present life and career.

We also discuss the different processes that could help a person feel the actual results from a situation he/she has put effort into. And this sounds like a game-changer for sure!
