Four-Time Olympic Athlete Georgia Simmerling (Part 2): Disordered Eating, Relationships, and Athlete Identity

This is Part Two of Alex and Meredith's sit down discussion with Four-Time Olympic Athlete, Georgia Simmerling. In Part Two, Georgia shares her personal experience of transitioning from being a professional athlete to starting her own business. She also shares her experience with eating disorders and extreme exercising, and what her recovery journey was like, and how her fiancée Stephanie Labbé helped her. Georgia speaks on the importance of setting goals after retirement to avoid the identity crisis that many athletes face. She even takes us through the journey of reclaiming running, cycling, and soccer as hobbies. The end of an athletic career doesn't have to mean the end of pursuing your passions; it's only the start of all that's left to come. TRIGGER WARNING: There is discussion of Georgia's eating disorder struggle from 02:30 - 15:45.
