    We've got to keep you on your toes so it's time to step away from the world of Olympians this week and jump to the professional sport of AFL.

    So, what's next for Georgia Ridler?
    Nov 9 2020
    I walked away from speaking to Georgia thinking, "Jeez... it's nice to hear my thoughts are normal." Welcome to another week of So, what's next? and on this week's episode, we have the Lead Performance Psychologist at the Australian Olympic Committee, Georgia Ridler. After speaking to so many athletes, I wanted to find out more about how our mental wellbeing can affect our performance, the importance of the work life balance, the incredible skills that athletes learn that can be used in the world of employment and how to identify as more than just an athlete. I truly encourage any athlete and person, regardless of where they're at in their career, give this episode a listen. In other news, go check us out on Instagram @podcastsowhatsnext. See you all there!

    So, what's next for Cheltzie Lee and Sam Hall?
    Nov 2 2020
    Why on earth are there two names in the title? That's right, we have double the guest speakers on today's episode! Let's welcome 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic figure skater, Cheltzie Lee and 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic freestyle skier in mogul skiing, Sam Hall. Apart from the fact that these two have some incredible sporting achievements under their belt, they also MET through sport and so I thought what better way to share their transitions out of sport than with each other. This episode is filled with banter and them finishing each other's sentences and I'm absolutely here for it. I hope you all enjoy the episode and much as I did recording it.

    So, what's next for Nova Peris?
    Oct 5 2020
    Welcome back to SEASON TWO of So, what's next? I'm absolutely blown away by the support that you all gave during season one and we're back for an even bigger and better season two! On today's episode we have the trailblazer that is Nova Peris. Nova Peris is a descendant of the Gija people of East Kimberley and the Yawuru people of West Kimberley; the Muran Clan Iwatja people of West Arnhem Land, and is an incredibly successful woman in both sports and politics. Nova is a two-time Olympian, competing in two different Summer Olympic sports. First, Nova, as part of the Hockeyroos team won gold at the 1996 Atlanta Olympic and became the first Indigenous Australian to win an Olympic gold. Nova then competed in athletics in at the 2000 Sydney Olympics reaching semi-finals of the 400m sprint and fifth in the 4x100m relay. Post-sport, Nova was elected to the Australian senate as a senator for the Northern Territory at the 2013 federal election as Julia Gillard’s named ‘captain’s pick’. This made Nova Australia’s first Indigenous woman elected to federal parliament. I'm so honoured to have had the chance to speak to Nova and I hope you all enjoy this episode as much as I did.
