I did my first Olympics
with a chronic illness,
no roadmap,
and no one who’d done it before me.
Whatever hard thing you’re facing — I’ve probably been somewhere close.
Let’s talk about it.
What we can work on together
- Race performance & training — Skimo, Trail Running, Mountain Running, Road-Track-Trail
- Living and competing with a chronic illness
- Moving abroad and building a life somewhere new
- Doing something no one around you has done before

I’ve raced in conditions and locations most coaches have only read about. That’s what you’re getting access to.
Life, Logistics & the Stuff Nobody Talks About
Australia → Idaho → Colorado → France. I’ve navigated all of it — often alone, often without a roadmap.
Moving abroad
- VISA processes & paperwork
- Finding housing in a new country
- Moving stress & culture shock
- Building a life with no local network
- Training in a new environment
- Altitude acclimatisation
- Managing finances across countries
Communication & relationships
- Working with coaches remotely
- Communicating with managers & agents
- Navigating team dynamics
- Athlete-to-athlete relationships
- Setting boundaries with sponsors
- Dealing with national federations
- Advocating for yourself in sport
Athlete life realities
- Training while working full-time
- Managing a chronic illness abroad
- Finding medical support in a new country
- Burnout and motivation management
- Doing something no one around you has done
- Building an identity outside sport
- What to do when it gets really hard
This isn’t stuff you find in a coaching manual. It’s what I learned the hard way — so you don’t have to.
