In this episode I chat with 2x US Champion Alissa Czisny about her skating career and beyond: we discuss her start in skating, her injury and recovery process with hip surgeries, how she mentally dealt with not making the Olympic team in 2010, not giving up and coming back to become the 2010 GPF Champion and 2011 National Champion, advice for skaters who are facing a rut, what retirement was like and finding her identity outside of competitive skating, what she's up to now with coaching, seminars, and shows, what she thinks of competitive skating now, and who's she's looking at as we enter this new Olympic season.
