I invite you to enjoy this conversation with freediving World Champion and record-breaking freediver, Katerina Sadurska of Ukraine.

This episode shall serve as the final installment of this four-part series—now we have heard from a total of four World Champion, World Record-holding freedivers.

This conversation with Katerina is a breath of fresh air. I feel a particularly feminine touch in her exposition, which brings great balance to the masculine energy of relentlessly striving for more.

I use feminine and masculine here not in the biological sense, but rather in the archetypal sense—where both sides lie on the same spectrum, each with equal importance and belonging. We must acknowledge and integrate the masculine and feminine elements of our psyche to live a whole life. It’s both a metaphor and a practical lesson we can apply to our individual process in freediving, to freediving as a collective sport, and in our everyday lives.

As such, Katerina’s voice is the keystone of the project, and I am so grateful to her for sharing her brilliant wisdom and gentle touch with us.
