Today's episode is all about embracing change in the world of gymnastics, and I'm thrilled to introduce our guest, Jessica McDonough, better known as Coach Jessie from Olympus Gymnastic Club. A former Utah NCAA gymnast, Coach Jessie brings a fresh perspective to the sport. At Olympus, she's been instrumental in reshaping the gym culture, moving away from traditional coaching methods to create a more positive and supportive environment.

Coach Jessie shares practical advice on how to maintain a sense of joy and positivity while still striving for excellence in gymnastics. It's a delicate balance, but one she navigates with grace.
