Apart from revealing the winner of my November competition amongst all patrons (patreon.com/vittinghus) - this episode features a brutally honest Gail Emms on both the highs and the lows of being a world class athlete.
Get to know what huge lesson she learned after losing the Olympic final in 2004 and how that spurred her on to more success than ever the following years.
But you'll also learn how and why Gail struggled with finding her place after her playing days were over - and what she is looking towards in the future.
Furthermore she explains why she is currently not part of the world of badminton and why we do need more female coaches at the top level.
All of this and much more, like stories on what it's like to share a room with the very person you're set to play a World Championship final against and how working in a bar is not exactly what some people seem to expect of a former World Champion and Olympic silver medalist.
Gail has a both interesting and important story to tell, so I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I enjoyed talking to her.
Oh and by the way - check out Gail’s newest project, a quiz book: https://www.desiredreamvision.store/product-page/gail-emms-ultimate-pub-sports-quiz
