Welcome back to another episode of Campbells and Co. This week on the pod, Cate and Bronte discuss Serena William’s sensational comeback at Wimbledon and there has been a bunch of World Records in the pool.

So why does a champion decide to come back and why is Serena keeping a close eye on WADA’s anti-doping advice in the next few years.

Plus there have been 3 world records broken in 2 events in the past two weeks. These records have stood for over 8 years and now one of them was broken twice in two weeks. What is going on in the pool at the moment?

Welcome back to another episode of Campbells and Co. This week on the pod, Cate and Bronte answer a listener question asking whether you need to be a specific personality type to become an elite athlete.

Cate, who is studying psychology, takes us through the basics of personality and trait theory and explains that roughly half of your personality is set by your genetics, while the other half is shaped through your environment and experiences.

It’s a really interesting chat about what it takes to be a champion and ultimately Cate and Bronte conclude (in a very unscientific way) that personality might help to a point, but sport makes room for all personality types.

Recommendations from the Episode:

• Listen to Instructions: Bronte reminds everyone to double check that ‘nude’ swim actually means ‘nude’ swim.

• Mascara: Cate recommended MCO Beauty tubular mascara.

The New York Knicks broke a 53 year drought by winning the NBA championship at the weekend. Their captain Jalen Brunsen put on the performance of a lifetime and prompted the question: what mindset makes a winner?

Plus Cate admits to being soccer ambivalent but is happy to jump on the bandwagon during the World Cup. Is it ever okay to jump on a sporting team’s bandwagon? Or are sports teams for long term fans only?
