This week we had the opportunity to sit down with United States Professional Women's Sevens Rugby Player Kayla Canett. Kayla talks us through her journey growing up playing sports in San Diego County, to her time at Penn State securing NCAA Championships, and more recently her 2020 Tokyo Olympic experience as well as her OLYMPIC BRONZE at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games with the rest of the USA Women's Sevens Team.

This is the FIRST medal for any Sevens Team at the olympics. We were excited to hear how it felt in those final seconds at the Paris Games when the Team knew they had locked in the medal after a breakaway last second score in the match by her teammate.

Kayla talks about her true love for the game and what it's like to be an incognito olympian in a lecture hall full of fellow college students.

Kayla plans to get her degree in kinesiology and ideally stay involved in sports in some capacity, but she's got no interest in hanging up the cleats any time soon.

We hope you enjoy this chat with Kayla as much as we did. Go say hey to her on Instagram:

Today we had the wonderful opportunity to sit down with Georgeta Ungureanu who is a 2 time Romanian National Road Cycling Champion. Georgeta was previously a swimmer and grew up as an athlete. At one point in her life she was so adventurous to pursue skydiving as a sport and hobby before moving to the United States.

After moving to the US Georgeta learned about road cycling through a friend and shortly thereafter tackled her first 200 mile endurance road ride. She fell in love with the sport there and has since moved to California where she found joy in racing and competition.

Georgeta has an entrepreneurial spirit and seeks to inspire young women in the sport through inclusivity and success. The growth of the sport in recent years excites her a great deal. We were happy to sit down and talk about all of these topics and more in this episode.

Georgeta is gearing up to hopefully be fit and competitive enough to make a run at the 2028 Olympics right here in Los Angeles, CA.

We hope that you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed the conversation.
