This podcast is all about teen life – whether you’re living it, like Millie, or still recovering from it, like me – and we love chatting to amazing guests about their own teenage experiences.

We are fangirling hard because we are joined this ep by literal Australian royalty in a swimsuit – Olympic gold medalist, world record breaker, and all-round water warrior – Ariarne Titmus. Arnie as us Aussies call her has swum her way into history books – but today we want to dive into what she was like before the medals.

What was teen Arnie doing when she wasn’t doing laps? And of course we need to unpack the sacrifices and the choices she made that helped her get from a teen swimmer in Tassie to one of the best athletes on the planet. You are going to love how grounded Ariarne is – even after everything she’s achieved.

I feel like we learned more from her than a whole week of school. We are both inspired and need to jump in a pool and do a thousand laps right now. Or at least stop complaining when we have to walk the dog!

If you want to know more about her training, her wins or what she’s got coming up next, you can follow her on socials
