WE'RE BACK....with guest Olympic bronze medalist and 2008 NCAA Female Swimmer of the Year CAROLINE BURCKLE!!! Get warmed up for Rio with this episode, in which Caroline chats with us about what it felt like to break Janet Evans' 500 free NCAA record, pre-Olympic Trials panic, her experience at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and the exact moment when she knew it was time to retire from swimming. The University of Florida alum also chats about Rise - the "mind mentoring" company founded by Burckle and Olympic gold medalist Rebecca Soni - and offers a peek into some of the mental techniques that put her onto the 2008 Olympic team. Caroline is inspiration in its truest form, don't miss this one y'all.

Ever wonder what it might feel like to have a mental freakout the day of the most important swim of your life? Ever wonder what it felt like to be the first woman in the WORLD to break the 2:20 barrier in the 200m breaststroke? Ever wonder what an Olympic podium ready room feels like? (spoiler alert: lots of trading makeup and sharing 1 small mirror with your fellow Olympic medalists) Ever wonder what multiple Olympic Gold Medalist and World Record Holder Rebecca Soni thinks about her career now? How she dealt with the retirement and what she channels her goals and energy into currently? This is the podcast for you! REBECCA SONI joins Swimcerely with Spindrift, y'all. She's funny, she's fast, she's extremely inspirational whilst simultaneously pulling back the curtain of the "Olympic" mystique that so most of the swimming world never gets a chance to peek behind.
