Most of my guests this season have been reflecting on their sporting careers years after retirement.
That’s why my conversation with Genevieve was so fascinating — she is still only a few years removed from elite competition and is actively navigating her own sporting transition.
We explored:
⚡ How her transition has led to an exciting career in marketing, working with Extreme E, the pioneering off-road electric and hydrogen racing series.
🔁 The role of a “really positive feedback loop” in helping her achieve success as Junior World Champion and Australian National Champion.
⏳ Why taking a gap year was pivotal in pursuing her rowing ambitions.
🔥 The relentless pressure of constantly having to fight for a place in the squad.
🌍 How the Covid-19 pandemic accelerated her reflections on life beyond sport.
And much more.
