The Long Race

In our fifth episode, we’re excited to sit down with Sofia Meakin — Swiss Olympic rower and elite athlete competing at the highest international level. Sofia opens up about life inside the Olympic cycle, the discipline and self-control required to perform at the top, and what it truly means to be a woman in high-performance sport. Together, we talk about competition, female support, resilience, and the balance between strength and vulnerability — both in the boat and beyond it.
