Gracie & Victoria Garrick Browne on D1 Volleyball, Mental Health, & Perfectionism

Former Division I USC volleyball player, TEDx speaker, and mental health advocate Victoria Garrick Browne joins me for a conversation every athlete and every woman needs to hear. After turning her own struggles with perfectionism, anxiety, and body image into a mission to help others, Victoria founded The Hidden Opponent and has become one of the leading voices changing the conversation around mental health in sports. In this episode, we dive into the impossible beauty standards women are facing today, the rise of weight loss drugs, social media's impact on body image, and why so many of us feel like we're constantly chasing an unattainable version of ourselves. We also talk about athlete identity, confidence, and how we can start unlearning the toxic messages we've been taught about our worth and appearance. This is an honest, empowering conversation that will leave you questioning the standards we've normalized and remind you that your value was never meant to be measured by how you look.

Gracie & Alysha Newman on Pole Vaulting, Getting Banned, & Dating as an Athlete

Olympic bronze medalist, Canadian record holder, and three time Olympian Alysha Newman joins me for one of the most honest conversations we've had on Athletes After Hours. We talk about the incredible high of finally standing on an Olympic podium after years of setbacks, heartbreak, and self-doubt, as well as the mental blocks that once left her questioning whether she'd ever reach her full potential. Alysha opens up about working with an EMDR specialist to heal from past trauma, rebuild her confidence, and unlock a version of herself she didn't know was possible. She also shares the story behind the two year ban that changed the trajectory of her career, the emotional toll it took on her identity, and how she found the strength to keep showing up when walking away would've been easier. At its core, this is a conversation about resilience, reinvention, and what happens when you're forced to bet on yourself. Now, with her eyes set on LA28, Alysha is chasing the biggest comeback of her career, and proving that sometimes the greatest victories come long after you've been counted out.

Gracie & Her Dad on Sports Medicine, Preventing Injury, & Doing Surgery on His Daughter

This week's episode of Athletes After Hours is a special one because I'm sitting down with someone who has shaped nearly every part of my journey: my dad. As an orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine professional who has worked with some of the world's top athletes through organizations like the World Surf League, he's spent his career helping people get back to doing what they love. But beyond the accolades and accomplishments, he's also the person who raised me to value movement, prioritize my health, chase excellence, and develop a deep appreciation for what the human body is capable of. In this Father's Day episode, we talk about everything from sports injuries and recovery to parenting, purpose, resilience, and the lessons he's learned from a lifetime spent caring for athletes. Whether you're an athlete, a parent, or someone simply trying to live a healthier life, this conversation is packed with wisdom, perspective, and a lot of heart.

Gracie & Rachel Entrekin on Running 250 Miles, Breaking Records, & Proving Women Can Do Anything

In this episode of Athletes After Hours, I am so honored to sit down with ultrarunner and physical therapist Rachel Entrekin fresh off one of the most remarkable performances in endurance sports history. Rachel opens up about what it was really like to run 250 miles across the Arizona desert, endure extreme sleep deprivation, battle through unimaginable physical and mental challenges, and ultimately become the first woman ever to win the Cocodona 250 outright, crossing the finish line ahead of all the men and women in the field. But this conversation goes far beyond running. Rachel shares her deeply personal journey recovering from an eating disorder, including the difficult reality of going to rehab twice and rebuilding her relationship with food, exercise, and herself. Together, we explore how healing, not restriction, became the foundation that allowed her to perform at the highest level and how learning to properly fuel her body ultimately helped her accomplish what once seemed impossible. This episode is a powerful conversation about resilience, recovery, self worth, and the incredible things that can happen when we stop fighting our bodies and start working with them. Whether you're an athlete or simply navigating your own challenges, Rachel's story is one you won't forget.
