Olivia Mason is a very talented runner who experienced only success after success throughout her junior years. However, after going through puberty at around 15 things changed.
In this episode Olivia shares her unique perspective from being a child star in the sport; encountering numerous set backs and challenges related to being female and an athlete; to proactively building herself a set up which has enabled her to pursue running how she wants.
Olivia shares her experience so far with managing challenges with her hormones, injuries, mental barriers in racing, working as a model and building a social media presence, and how she has learned to use adversity to her advantage.
She openly shares her story as she hopes through more conversations being had around female athlete health, women in sport can start to see changes for the better.
Lots to learn from and think about in this one.
