“Life is love, and it’s just about getting around to it.”
Today's guest is Alexandra Jupiter, beach volleyball star from France!!! In this episode, Alexandra talks about:-
- How she disciplines herself to make sure she does the things she needs to
- How she actually started beach volleyball when she moved to the US at the age of 14, and she started it together with her mum!
- Why she finds inspiration in the queen Serena Williams- Alexandra talks about body image, self-acceptance, self-love
- The process of how she went from an “individual player” to a “team player”
- How she takes in the surroundings before her game starts to get used to the situation
- Why breathing is the most important thing in tough situations
- What winning the Mediterranean Games meant to herself and her team
- How she’s slowly using social media to grow her influence in beach volleyball in France
- Her favorite places to play in competitions! (Hint: involves Austria, Norway, Japan and Australia ?)
- Why her ‘poker face’ has helped her a lot in her career
- But also what she wished people knew more about her behind her poker face
- Why she would tell her younger self to “trust more”
And sooo much more! This was really a conversation where Alexandra went deeeep and shared a lot of personal stuff! I really hope it inspires you to think a little differently about your game and life just like it did for me!
