About this listen
What happens when your coach is also your mum? And your past includes standing on the Olympic stage? In this raw and reflective episode, Janelle Pallister peels back the layers of life as an elite athlete, a high-performance coach, and a parent navigating it all.
From missing the Olympic team without knowing she’d ‘retired’, to coaching her daughter, Lani Pallister, to international success, Janelle shares the highs, heartbreaks, and hilarious moments that shaped her career both in and out of the pool.
We dive into:
The moment a 10-year-old Janelle declared, “I want to be an Olympian.”
How she balanced the hats of mum and coach (hint: strict rules, different names, and no swimming talk at home).
Why failure is necessary for greatness.
The one quote that defines her coaching style today.
If you’ve ever struggled with identity, transition, or chasing a dream—this episode will hit home.
