Episode 7 of Elite Insights gives us an insight into the importance of personal excellence in the life of an elite athlete. We speak to VIS Personal Excellence Coordinator Bernadette Sierakowski and VIS scholarship holder Anabelle Smith on what personal excellence is. Anabelle takes us through what personal excellence looks like to her, as an elite athlete, and how she managed to find a balance between sport and life. Bernadette explains how she works with athletes and the people around them to find a healthy balance in their life, and how personal excellence is a lot like a supportive scaffolding.
