Grape Therapy: Getting Chirped & Winning...

PodcastOne
About this episode

When Jonathan Van Ness tells you to have an Olympic gymnast and fellow-Canadian sweetie on the podcast, you listen. The one and only three-time Olympian Ellie Black joins Kaitlyn to talk about everything gymnastics, and it turns out a lot of her wisdom applies to so, so much more than sports… who woulda thought? Ellie is sharing how she got involved in the sport, what training and recovery look like, how she calms her nerves before heading into competition, and why she chooses to compete whenever possible with a flower in her hair. She’s also opening up about mental health in the world of gymnastics and beyond, and why it’s so important to have role models like Simone Biles standing up for themselves and their well-being. No matter how incredible these athletes are, they are still humans first, just like the rest of us. Plus, we get to witness another Canadian use the word “chirp” and hear Kaitlyn’s thoughts on this week’s episode of The Bachelor.
