Ep1. The Normal World of Annaleid Bakker

In this episode of The Normal World, I'll share my story about transitioning from the elite gymnastics world into the normal world. Why I started gymnastics in the first place, why I quit, and which struggles I faced returning back into the normal world.I hope by sharing this podcast I can help other ex-elite athletes or athletes that are going to retire. I also hope that this podcast will help me heal in the sense that I can create something I wish was there when I quit my elite career. Enjoy listening!Want to tell your story in this podcast?
