  • Summary

  • Hey, Sisters. Ever wondered what it might be like to parent an Olympic gold medal champion?

    On this episode, we interview Olympic mom Allison Douglass. Allison's daughter, swimmer Kate Douglass, won two gold, two silver, and one bronze medal in last summer's Paris Olympics.

    Allison talks frankly about their family's journey, culminating in Kate's impressive showing at the 2024 Summer Olympics.

    If you're anything like us, you may believe that parents of elite athletes push their children mercilessly and sacrifice all to get them to the pinnacle of their sports careers. Allison and her husband chose a different path; allowing Kate to make the decisions and commitments necessary to reach such athletic heights -- while balancing their commitments to family stability and their other children.

    If you think you might be parenting a future elite athlete, or you're simply interested in how one family parented theirs, you won't want to miss this episode.
