The Real Cost of Chasing Olympic Dreams

Welcome back to Rock Stars! Today, we share what it really costs to attain the highest level of the dream you’re chasing. Looking back on our own experiences, we reflect on the way we’ve built our lives around chasing something bigger than ourselves. We talk about the realities behind elite sport, from the finances to the career choices and tradeoffs that happen along the way. We also get into the parts people don’t always see, including family life and the emotional side of staying committed to a dream over many years. Stay tuned for more on:The financial costs of competing at the top level of curlingStories from our early years on tour and the creative ways we found to keep chasing our passionsJen’s experience balancing a legal career with Olympic goalsWhat high performance asks of a family and how we’ve created our own version of normalOur commitment to staying fully present for our livesWhy we believe there’s value in choosing your passions even when it’s difficultWhether your goal is in sport, business, family, or something completely different, we hope this episode reminds you that big dreams are rarely easy, but they can be worth it.
