Podcast Episode – Stephen Howell Welcome to another episode of the Aquatic Mentors podcast. I am your host, Katrina van Eyk. In this episode I interview an industry professional who has forged his own path through swimming from a junior swimmer, to competing at the world transplant games and now inspiring regional swimming by coaching and organising clinics with high performance athletes. So, please extend a big welcome to the podcast for Stephen Howell. Stephen showed his swimming skills early shinning as a talented school swimmer until he was diagnosed with kidney failure and moved on to dialysis to survive. After receiving a transplant Stephen come back to swimming with a blast and competed in the world transplant games among other transplant events. After noticing a lack of local swimming Stephen developed a passion to build swimming in Bathurst and across regional NSW. Starting his own business, Swim Better HQ, Stephen continues to make an impact regionally by hosting clinics and online events with high performance athletes to inspire NSW regional swimmers and coaches. Stephen wants to encourage change in the industry where promoting swimming is shared by all and supported by the governing bodies and regional swimming across Australia receives as many opportunities as their metro counterparts. His dream is to develop a regional hub in NSW which produces a number Olympic swimmers and expanding his clinics to regional areas throughout Australia.
