In this episode of The Diving Pod, we sit down with Olivia Nelson, senior diver at West Florida, to talk about her experience being part of an all-women’s swimming and diving program and what that environment has meant for her growth as both a diver and a person.

Olivia shares how the culture at UWF pushed her to take ownership of her development, build confidence, and lead alongside a tight-knit group of women who support each other daily. We also dive into her decision to graduate early.

This episode is a great listen for athletes who want to understand what it looks like to fully commit, grow within a strong team culture, and set themselves up for success after college.
