Yet another competition season is over, and I will soon be placing my golden superwoman suit and my medals in my dream drawer until next year.
Instead, Iāve never been happier to wear my most regular, normal clothes and live a normal life for the winter season. For someone whoās been escaping from normality her whole life, itās a pretty big step into adulthood.
Iām currently refurbishing my new home, occasionally wearing my architect cap šŖ for a change, and staying busy with some new projects. Starting a new life in a new city is exciting, and Iām ever so grateful to be skipping the end-of-competition-season blues entirely this year. Thereās so much to be excited aboutāliving in the French Rivieraāand the energy just keeps flowing.
If being content is the goal in life, I think Iām pretty close.
Thanks to all the people who supported me this season: my family for keeping up with my mad schedule, my *bagnatmania* clan @cipafreediving for all the time spent together in and out of the water, my coach @juliamouce for suddenly becoming both a friend and my biggest fan and cheerleader, and my sponsors @aquastarwatches@bolzanletti@wavehawaii_com@zulupack_official and technical partners @biavatisuit@cetma_composites_official@freexperience_official@wallien.official

šcontinued from my previous post..
I didnāt do it alone.
Iāve had two therapists/coaches who have been immensely helpful - comforting the disturbed part of me, whilst also disturbing the comfort that was preventing me from growing.
Iāve had an editor who believes in my writing so much that she proposed to become my agent for what will be my first book.
Iāve had a team of filmmakers who loved my story and worked behind the scenes to produce a short documentary, which I canāt wait to share.
And Iāve had the chance to deliver ā5 Minutes to Flowā, a breathwork workshop for brain health, with nearly 100 NHS leaders in the UK - with an even bigger one coming up in June at the Toronto Brain Health Summit.
At the same time, Iāve opened my company in France and started building my design business, already working on exciting projects across France and Italy.
The work has been intense and exhilarating at once - immensely creative and liberating.
Iāve done, weāve done, so much and honestly, I couldnāt be prouder. More than all the medals, the records, the PBs - in these months I have become an athlete of the mind, giving my body a much-needed break.
Hopefully Iāll find a way to share all thatās new here soon.
Cheers to growth, in whatever way that may come, and cheers to the people who believe in you, even when you donāt. You know who you are.
Now Iām back to Sharm to train..
If youāre around and up for creative projects, Iām looking forward to catching up.
Yours truly
Iāve been silent, not because I havenāt had anything to say, but because Iāve taken a break from social media to focus on designing my new life in the South of France.
And whilst some might argue that if you stop posting, then you stop existing, I actually feel very alive and grounded.
These months have felt like a real pivot moment in my life. When you move to a new country at 40 years old and want to build roots there, it means you also have to unroot yourself somewhere else - and that process of pulling roots out is deeply destabilising.
Not only do you replant yourself somewhere new, with new connections to be made and a new bureaucratic reality, but you also remove old weeds and what no longer feels necessary.
In a way, I knew I needed to close doors - and I did. The last year has been about taking action on long-held dreams and bringing them to life, making my plan to move and settle a reality by selling my home in London and buying my home in France.
But then, somewhere along the path, I came to a halt. I knew I had to plant new seeds and rewrite the person I want to be in the years to come, and that felt paralysing at times.
Iāve had to sit with that space.
To be continuedā¦
