For Us McKenzie Olsen

The name of our podcast is “For US” and the theme of it is focusing on women in sports. It is to help relate to other young female athletes and reach a broad range of people who share the same struggles. The subject of this episode is body image. We discuss the struggles of attempting to fit into every standard that the world holds for young women, while simultaneously pushing our bodies to preform the way we are demanding it to while competing in our sports. We talk about what we have gone through with regards to our own struggles and the way we have seen other people struggle. We also discuss unrealistic expectations from not only things like social media but people who are close to us like family and friends. One of the most controversial things in Women's sports is body types, and what we hoped to have accomplished through this episode is to help other young girls be confident in not only the way they look, but the way they can perform while competing.
