The Mother of All Movement Podcast Kathryn Meadows

BONUS Episode: Hurray it’s a BIG BONUS episode for you this season with the one and only Chemmy Alcott - 4 times Olympian and Britain’s most successful female ski racer.

Chemmy started competing in international races at the Junior World Championships in 1998 and the Youth Olympics in 1999, she then won the British Junior titles, the seniors overall titles for 8 years and competed in 7 World Championships and she also competed in her first Winter Olympics in 2002 going on to compete in the Olympics 3 more times. Chemmy has placed in the top 10 of the world rankings 5 times and is Britain’s most successful skier. She retired from skiing after the Olympics in 2014 and now presents Ski Sunday and the Winter Olympics while also working as a ski coach and she’s a Mum to 2 boys.

She is passionate about reframing the ideas we hold of fear, success and how we learn and especially towards women and mothers, so this was a fantastic conversation that will really get you thinking and motivated.

I hope you love this episode as much as I think you might.

In this final episode of season 5 I am joined by half of the Mothership crew who just completed the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge row coming in 2nd place women’s 4 in just over 40 days. They have been training for 2 years, preparing technically and physically as well as getting over the mental hurdle of being out in the Atlantic on their own with no immediate support and rowing 2 hours on 2 hours off for the whole time.

Felicity (Dids) and Lebby joined me to chat about their approach to the row, what they found the most challenging part and their experience of being women and mothers rowing this challenge.

I love speaking to women who have done something extraordinary against all expectations and the crew of the Mothership are exactly those type of women.

If you enjoyed this episode, please do give it a rating and review if you’re on Apple podcasts - it’s super quick and will help others find this podcast amongst all the others out there.

Thanks for listening to this series and for joining me in the chats and connections made with inspiring and informative women who happen to be mothers.

See you soon for Season 6!

This week I wanted to talk about Distraction following on from a conversation I had with my son about what it was like for him when he’s not playing computer games and has to actually listen to what’s going on in his head.

I hope if this resonates with you, it might give you a chance for a moment of reflection on what your version of the Dragon and the Snow Flurry are and what you can move to change instead.

Jump over to Instagram to chat to me about this @motherofallmovement I look forward to chatting to you about this.
