Dame Kelly Holmes

from Life At The Midpoint with Gabby Logan

Double Olympic champion, Dame Kelly Holmes, joins Gabby to talk about why she is truly living her best life at the midpoint. Kelly explains how she became consumed by fear of being outed and lived like a recluse after her huge success in Athens, but the death of her mum coupled with the pandemic in 2020, brought her to her lowest point and she reluctantly sought psychological help which changed the trajectory of her life. Now she is living more authentically than ever, and learning how she used her sporting success as a mask to hide behind. They also talk about taking the menopause month by month, getting competitive at Park Run, and Kelly’s views on the importance of doing things to keep yourself feeling youthful. Warning: There are references to suicidal thoughts in this podcast.
