    Savannah Kamau and Tracy Adams

    In the Season 4 Finale (Episode 7) of Hahnacity the Podcast, we’re joined by Savannah Kamau and her mother, Tracy Adams—two generations of gymnasts whose shared journey through sport has shaped their identities, their relationship, and the way they now show up for others. Savannah began competitive gymnastics at just six years old, spending a decade navigating the beauty, intensity, and challenges of a sport that brought both pride and hardship. Now a retired gymnast and coach at The Rise Gym, she reflects on how injuries, setbacks, and moments of triumph shaped her resilience and deepened her passion for helping young athletes feel supported and understood. Tracy, a retired gymnast herself, shares the emotional experience of watching her daughter grow through sport—holding space for both the joy and the vulnerability that come with chasing big dreams. Together, they close out Season 4 with an honest conversation about family, identity, healing, and what gymnastics gave them—and what it asked of them. This finale is a reflection on legacy, growth, and the lasting bond between athlete and parent long after competition ends.

    Isaiah Neil

    In this episode of Hahnacity the Podcast, we sit down with Isaiah Neil, a former University of Alberta Golden Bears football player who turned his own struggles into a mission to support youth mental health. Behind the strength and toughness expected of a student-athlete, Isaiah was navigating challenges that forced him to rethink what resilience really means. Stepping away from football became the beginning of a new purpose—using honesty, storytelling, and connection to help young people feel seen, supported, and less alone. Now a keynote speaker working with youth across Canada, Isaiah shares why talking openly about mental health matters, how vulnerability can be a form of leadership, and what he’s learned about rebuilding identity beyond sport. This conversation is about courage, healing, and the power of showing up as your full self.

    Kurt and Denise Palmquist

    In this episode of Hahnacity the Podcast, we sit down with Denise and Kurt Palmquist, the parents of former professional soccer player Blake Palmquist, who joined us in Seasons 2 and 3. Denise and Kurt reflect on what it means to support a child chasing a professional dream—while also building a life rooted in creativity, partnership, and resilience. From entrepreneurship and career transitions to family caregiving and long-term commitment, they share the behind-the-scenes moments that shape not just an athlete, but a family. This conversation explores love, sacrifice, identity, and the quiet work parents do to create stability and belief—long before the spotlight ever shows up. It’s a deeper look at the values, support, and humanity that helped shape Blake’s journey, and the lives Denise and Kurt continue to build together beyond sport.

    Our first guest is Andrew Rohrbach, a former professional baseball player who was drafted in the 9th round by the Colorado Rockies and knows firsthand what it takes—mentally and physically—to compete at the highest level. After stepping away from the game, Andrew earned his Master’s degree in Sport Psychology from Long Beach State, where he worked with Division I athletes across multiple sports and saw just how powerful mental performance can be.
