This week we are excited to bring you an interview with a bronze medalist from the Tokyo Olympics and one of the Team GB greats, Alice Kinsella! Alice is a World team silver medalist from 2022 and a 7x European medalist including a gold medalist on beam from 2019 and a team gold medalist from 2023. Leading up to Paris, Great Britain faced a lot of adversity ahead of the Games with several of their top athletes going down with season ending injuries. However, they rose to the occasion and proved to the world that they were still in the hunt for a medal with Alice helping to lead the team to a 4th place finish!  We chat with Alice about how her experience in Paris differed from Tokyo, why she didn’t compete the Amanar, whether or not she’s interested in making a run for LA 2028 and more!

This week we are joined by Levi Jung-Ruivivar who is fresh off competing at the 2024 Paris Olympics! Levi, along with her teammates Emma Malybuyo and Aleah Finnegan made history by becoming the first female gymnasts to represent the Philippines at the Olympics in 60 years and it was a pretty crazy experience. Levi had a serious allergic reaction while in the Olympic Village just days before she competed, but she was able to overcome that and not only participate in the Opening Ceremony but also do pretty well in qualifications, hitting all four of her routines in her Olympic debut! Levi joins us to talk about the whole experience, including what she liked and disliked about the Olympic Village, her hopes for helping to grow the sport in the Philippines, why she chose Stanford and so much more.

This week we are joined by Hannah Aoki, who announced in May that she had accepted a full athlete scholarship to the University of North Carolina. Hannah was a little bit of a late bloomer to college recruiting as she didn’t become a level 10 until her sophomore year of high school but she was determined and willing to do whatever it took to achieve her goal of becoming a college gymnast. After winning the all-around title in the All-Star East division at nationals this year, Hannah received the phone call she had been waiting and hoping for from UNC. Today Hannah joins us to talk about her recruiting journey and share some advice about trusting the process and not comparing your journey to others.

We’re so excited to have Nina back on the show to talk all about her recruiting process from her jam-packed schedule with official visits, when she knew she was meant to go to LSU, and how she shared the news with her friends and family, including the hat ceremony she did at her high school that went viral on TikTok.
