In this episode, we sit down with former D1 gymnast Kielyn McCright (@kielynmccright), an ACC All-Tournament athlete with Clemson gymnastics. We discuss how mental performance impacted her success and wellbeing throughout her career, tips on how to navigate NIL and the changing landscape of NCAA athletics, how to optimize injury recovery from a mental perspective, and how identity changes during and after sport. This episode is a must watch for any gymnasts, gymnastics coaches, and parents of gymnasts who not only aspire to go D1, but who want to maximize their experience as an athlete in general.
