Brittany O'Brien || Olympian, Social Media Creator and Entrepreneur

In this episode of Diving Deep with Sam Fricker, I sit down with Olympic diver and social media star Brittany O’Briento unpack her incredible journey through sport and beyond. Brit’s story is one of resilience, determination, and an incredible comeback. After being dropped from the program as a young diver, she fought her way back earning her place on the Australian Olympic Team and competing at the 2016 Rio Olympics. But that was just the beginning. She continued pushing forward, not only returning to Australia to chase her dream, but also proving herself on the international stage once again by winning a medal at the Commonwealth Games. Her journey is a powerful example of what it means to get back up, keep believing, and perform when it counts.But her success doesn’t stop at the pool. She’s built a massive following online, sharing the raw, real, and often hilarious side of life as an elite athlete. We talk about what it really takes to bounce back after a major setback, how she turned her story into strength, and how she’s inspiring a new generation through both diving and digital storytelling. I’ve known Brit for years we’ve trained together, competed side by side, and watched each other grow and this chat is one of the most honest and inspiring conversations I’ve had yet.
