Betsy Mitchell: More Than Medals, Lessons from An Olympian

On the SwimSwam Podcast I talk to a very dear friend, someone I looked up to and leaned on when I needed tough advice and guidance. I think we've all had that one person in our swimming life. Olympic Champion Betsy Mitchell was that person for me.
Betsy is a renaissance woman in the sports world, a 2-time Olympian, gold medalist, 7-time NCAA champion, former college swimming coach, and the current Athletic Director of Cal Tech. Betsy's roots run deep in sport, which is why she's co-authored her first book with Ann Worthington, MORE THAN MEDALS, Lessons From An Olympian. I say "her first book" because a follow-up will be coming soon.
Betsy's forthcoming in this conversation, bringing wisdom and perspective to the topic of youth and college sports, which, right now, is a very chaotic and rapidly changing environment of lawsuits and rule changes. I hope you enjoy it.
