“You don’t have to overthink it- you just gotta have fun with what you’re doing and enjoy the process!”

Today’s episode will always hold a special place in my heart because it’s my first ever face-to-face interview, and also the fact that we recorded it on Olympic Day- and who else better to represent the value of the Olympic Games besides three-time gold medalist Misty May-Treanor?! I’m truly so lucky to be able to sit down and have a chat with Misty about her journey from the moment she stepped onto a volleyball court, to the accomplished athlete that she is today. In this episode, Misty talks about:-
- How she started beach volleyball and played in her first tournament with her dad, Butch
- Why she thinks she has never had the “perfect” game
- Why the Brazilians were always her toughest opponents
- How her training regimen has shifted throughout multiple years (in season & off season)
- Why every athlete should start a food journal!
- Her mentality when facing injuries (this one is really good!)
- How to develop the ability to be a step or two ahead of your opponents
- The main difference that separated she and Kerri with the other teams
- Why being vulnerable is actually so important in our lives
And as usual, much much more!
This episode with Misty is a very special episode that I will cherish forever. I really hope that you enjoy it and that you’ve learned as much from her as I did!
