Apart from revealing the winner of my November competition amongst all patrons (patreon.com/vittinghus) - this episode features a brutally honest Gail Emms on both the highs and the lows of being a world class athlete. Get to know what huge lesson she learned after losing the Olympic final in 2004 and how that spurred her on to more success than ever the following years. But you'll also learn how and why Gail struggled with finding her place after her playing days were over - and what she is looking towards in the future. Furthermore she explains why she is currently not part of the world of badminton and why we do need more female coaches at the top level. All of this and much more, like stories on what it's like to share a room with the very person you're set to play a World Championship final against and how working in a bar is not exactly what some people seem to expect of a former World Champion and Olympic silver medalist. Gail has a both interesting and important story to tell, so I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I enjoyed talking to her.

Gail Emms, MBE joins the Gang for a really fun chat. We discuss why an Olympic silver medal sometimes isn't as great as it sounds, what it takes to be an elite athlete, the importance of strong femalenrole models,why Gail changed her diet, and what did Chris say that shocked Gail so much? You'll need to listen to find out. To find out more about Gail, search @gailemms on IG or Twitter.

Gail Emms played brilliantly, the outstanding player on the court by a mile.  As she smashed her Athens 2004 semi-final, with partner Nathan Robertson, she guaranteed either Silver or Gold for Team GB.   What an achievement.   Except this story's not like that.  To the outside, it's a  strange thing to consider yourself a "failure" for winning an Olympic Silver Medal (they lost the final).  But that's how Gail feels.  When you're conditioned into 'winning at all costs', the knock on effect can be scary.  Consolation prizes mean nothing.  How does she feels when she looks at her medal now?  The answer will shock you.  Taken in isolation, her story of depression, rejection, isolation may sound surprising.  How can an athlete who's won a great prize feel that way?  But that's the point. The Mask rises; disguises.  Do we get that?  Do we understand enough about the way these competitors are programmed, and the knock on effects to their mental health?  This episode tackles a wide range of interconnected issues and will definitely make you think.  Andy Stevenson is alongside host Jonathan Overend for Episode 13, in association with Aldi UK, official supermarket partner of Team GB.  There's some Olympic-village namedropping, plenty of soul-searching and how Gail turned Andy Murray's Olympic attitude around.  

Colin Murray is joined by Dean Ashton, Gail Emms and Keith Gillespie to discuss the importance of talking about mental health. They talk about bereavement, the pressures of social media, looking after family members with mental illness, and the importance of reaching out.

A conversation with Gail Emms who is a former Olympic GB badminton player. Amongst other things we spoke about her now being a motivational speaker and mentor, the medals that she won at international level and meeting the Queen to receive her MBE. It was interesting to hear how Gail's badminton career started and how she transitioned out of sport.

Great opportunity to hear from an Olympic medalist, Gail Emms, talking about her career journey.

Welcome to Episode 13, where I had the pleasure of talking to Badminton Olympic Silver Medallist and World Champion Gail Emms. The way this chat came about has a small story behind it. My Dad, who's one of my biggest fans, saw that Gail Emms had been working with some sports team online and then sent her a message asking if she'd be free to come onto my podcast. After I slid into her DMs we got chatting and Gail said yes! We had a great chat on the phone beforehand and I shamelessly told her we'd met a few times previously, one at a networking event where she did a talk for female business owners and the other time at the training studio F45 where we'd both taken part in a class. In todays episode Gail takes us through her sporting career, how she used running to improve her Badminton, what running races she's done in the past including the London Marathon, what lockdown life looks like for her now and as a sports speaker and motivator, how we can all be adapting to make the most of our time and use exercise as a positive and powerful tool. I really do hope you enjoy this one as Gails energy and enthusiasm was really infectious. https://gailemms.com/ @gailemms - Twitter

The Olympian, Helen Glover, speaks to world-class badminton player, Gail Emms, about the difficult time she has had since retiring from sport. Helen Glover is one of our most successful athletes. In a life devoted to rowing, she has won a phenomenal twenty one Olympic, World and European gold medals. But now she is contemplating retirement. And she is discovering that looking to the future - towards a life away from competitive rowing - is as daunting as it is liberating. Gail Emms, alongside her doubles partner, Nathan Robertson, won a silver medal at the 2004 Olympics and became World Champion in 2006. But when she retired in 2008, she struggled financially and underestimated how hard it might be to find a new sense of identity and purpose. Producer: Karen Gregor.

Nathan Robertson visited the BEC Podcast to talk about his legendary partnership with Gail Emms, career highs and lows, and, life after retirement.

Mark Schwarzer, Gail Emms, Natasha Jonas, and CJ Ujah join Eleanor Oldroyd.

Gail Emms is an Olympic Mixed Pairs Doubles Silver Medallist for Team GB. She and her doubles partner Nathan Robertson picked up the heroic medal at the Athens 2004 Olympic Games. Gail is high-energy, determined and fun and I loved talking to her about her journey to success. She really does show us that you need to find the event that suits you best and the importance of building the right team around you. From playing in tin huts to the biggest stage of all - listen as Gail takes us on her incredible journey. Before the Medals concentrates on the journey and not the destination. We don’t focus on the moment they stood on the podium and got their medals – we focus on the times before the medals where our famous sportspeople started their craft and learnt both mentally and physically what it takes. We search for the patterns and best practises of these performers to help give young athletes the tools to succeed. www.beforethemedals.com
