For today's episode, we were fortunate to get to speak with Nicole Heavirland. She’s a professional rugby player and part of the US National Rugby Sevens team. We speak about how Nicole found her way to rugby in high school and how rugby sevens is a sport that requires some serious physical, and mental strength. She also shares her thoughts on the nutrition aspect of being a professional athlete and how she has found a balance between eating for performance and eating for pleasure, over the years. Playing sports has taught Nicole the values and mentality of hard work and she wants to show others that it’s never impossible to achieve what you want, as long as you stop making excuses and put in the work.

Enjoy the episode!
