Today on SAC Emily Coffman, a former student-athlete from The University of Oklahoma was interviewed. Emily was a coxswain on the Rowing team at OU. In the interview, we talk about her experience at OU as a student-athlete and how she handled the dual responsibilities. 

Emily also is the host of a podcast called,¨Girls Gone Healthy¨which is a podcast geared to help women maintain a healthy lifestyle. Emily explained that she had missed the athlete lifestyle once she had graduated and wanted to create the podcast to teach and express the lifestyle and habits of living healthy with exercise and nutrition. All in all, it is a podcast about motivation advocating for a healthy lifestyle!

As a student-athlete, we are all aware of the busy schedule that we deal with. The Rowing team at OU practiced every day at 5 AM! She took us through a day being on the Rowling Team and how she prioritized her time. Also, for her team traveling was necessary which meant times there were many times where doing homework and assignments were not ideal. 

Emily is a prime example of how to manage your time as an athlete and implement a routine! Make sure to listen to this episode, as it is definitely a motivation podcast episode!
