I started training with Rachel in September last year for the World Pole Championships in Argentina and straight away I knew I had to interview her. So this is a different conversation between a pole coach and athlete and I think you can hear the closeness in rapport. Lots of laughing together and being comfortably vulnerable. 

I’m not sure if Rachel realises how hilarious she is but you can hear in this episode I laugh a lot. Laughing is very important I find as I can take myself a bit seriously when competing. 

We talk a lot about tackling performance anxiety and shifting the weird narratives our brains sometimes create. As Rachel has so much competing and performance experience some of the insight she gives on her journey with her mindset is gold.
