Episode Nine - Bronte Campbell

Bounce Back

There’s no doubt a lot of us are feeling a bit lost or struggling at the moment.

Well you’re not alone. In Bounce Back, Andrew talks to prominent Australians about major challenges that have been thrown their way, and how they’ve overcome these difficulties on the road to success.
In this episode Dr Rochford speaks with Bronte Campbell. You'll know her as an International swimming champion. She represented Australia at two Olympics and at Rio in 2016 she and her team won gold in the women's 4X100 Freestyle Relay in World Record time, breaking the record they previously set in 2014.
From the highs of winning gold to days later finishing fourth in the 100 metre freestyle, a race she went into as World Champion. Despite swimming with "a body that feels like its held together with sticky tape" Bronte is training for a third Olympics in Tokyo in 2021.
Her training partner is also her closet rival and happens to be her sister Cate Campbell.
This series will feature some of Australia’s most recognised sports men and women, prominent businesspeople and well-known politicians, allowing them to tell their story, in their own words.

Bounce Back is about promoting well-being and good mental health, by showing that even in the most difficult of times, there are people who you can turn to for support - whether they’re mates, family, colleagues, professionals even your neighbours.

It’s about how to look after yourself when things are tough, believing in yourself and knowing you can come through it even stronger.

Dr. Andrew Rochford is a proud ambassador for DrinkWise, which is sponsoring this podcast.
