Episode 269: Playing to win with Dr. Stacy Sims Warrior School

    • Self-Improvement

My guest today is Dr. Stacy Sims. This is Stac’s third time on the Warrior School Pod. 
When I sent her the list of topics I wanted to talk about she wrote back - “Oh wow, I’ll have to think about these”. This Ep. Is more personal than it is ‘education and science’.
Stacy has been on 292 podcasts in the last year or so, so I didn’t want to get her on the talk about the same stuff. I was more interested in what’s going on in her work and what playing to win means to her as a woman, athlete, Mum and scientist.

Key Takeaways:


What’s going on in Stacy’s World 
Why she decided to revise ROAR and what’s different in version 2.0
Her insights from collaborative projects aimed at educating women on strength training
Her passion for gender equality for youth athletes and sports in schools
Adapting training strategies throughout different life stages, particularly in response to hormonal changes.
Utilising technology, such as 'smart tampons,' for early warnings of health issues.
Groundbreaking research on using menstrual fluid as a diagnostic tool for women's healthcare accessibility.
Personal experiences with balancing training, business, and family, along with strategies for prioritising self-care and finding balance.
Balancing rigorous training with rest, nutrition, and recovery for holistic health.
