It is hard to overstate Kami Craig's accomplishments. She is considered to be one of the greatest ever Water Polo players and her incredible list of accomplishments over the course of her 13 year international career includes 2 x Olympic Gold medals, 1 x Olympic silver medal, 3 x World Championship golds and 2 x World Cup wins.
In this episode Kami talks about the feeling of belonging Water Polo gave her (after being diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia at the age of 7) and the very challenging journey she has had to walk since she decided to hand over the torch to the next generation of players in 2017. She courageously and honestly opens up about the toll the transition into 'normal' life took on her mental health, but also tells of the hope she has now as she is finding a different identity, purpose and meaning in life as a mentor to young athletes.
