In this powerhouse episode, Australian Taekwondo champion and Olympian Leon Sejranovic sits down with host Kate Elizabeth to unpack the mindset, grit, and growth that shape an elite athlete.

Leon opens up about his road to the Olympic stage, from gruelling training sessions to the emotional highs and lows that come with representing your country. Together, they explore what it really takes to perform under pressure — the role of mental resilience, the importance of a solid support system, and how to stay grounded when the world is watching.

Kate and Leon dive deep into the politics, purpose, and people behind Taekwondo — from how the sport can better support athletes, to finding balance and identity beyond the mat. Whether you’re an athlete, parent, or coach, this episode will give you a front-row seat to the mindset that turns pressure into power.

A champion isn’t just who wins — it’s who inspires others to keep showing up.” – Leon Sejranovic
