Olympic gold medalist Jordyn Wieber Brooks knows the immense pressure of elite gymnastics—where fear-based coaching, emotional suppression, and relentless expectations shape young athletes. In this episode, she opens up about the resilience it took to unlearn those survival tactics and how retiring at just 18 forced her to redefine her identity beyond competition. Now the head coach at the University of Arkansas, Jordyn is reshaping gymnastics culture, creating a healthier environment where athletes can thrive without sacrificing their well-being. She shares her journey of healing from body image struggles, finding purpose in coaching, and preparing for motherhood. Jordyn also reflects on her experience on Special Forces, where she reached her mental and physical limits and made the powerful decision to step away for her mental health—proving that true strength lies in self-awareness, boundaries, and rewriting the rules for the next generation.(00:00:00) Introductions(00:03:34) Redefining Success in Sports: Building Resilience & Healthy Mindsets(00:13:05) Jordyn's Olympic Journey & Navigating Life After Retirement(00:25:08) Healing Her Relationship with Food & Preparing for MotherhoodClick here for full show notesGuest Info:• Instagram: @jordyn_wieberResources:• Follow Karena Dawn on Instagram: @karenadawn• Follow The Big Silence on Instagram: @The.Big.Silence• Subscribe: The Big Silence YouTube Channel• Therapy For All: Resources for those in need• Thank you to our partners!

Welcome to another episode of Flipping Out with Bridget Sloan. Our guests on today's show are Jordyn Wieber and Chris Brooks, and they have a lot in common. Both are Olympians, both coach gymnastics at the University of Arkansas, and perhaps the ultimate thing to have in common is family - because they are married!

When you're one of the most well-liked gymnasts in the country, you're kind of a big deal. But for Norah Flatley, it's what makes her so well-respected that really stands out. It's the years of hard work dedicated to her craft. And it's overcoming injuries, setbacks, and heartbreak. An injury kept Norah from having a chance to realize her Olympic dream. But time heals all wounds, and after finishing seventh at nationals last year and being named the Comeback Gymnast of the Year, she sees the big picture, including a transfer to Arkansas, a fresh start, and an opportunity to work with Jordyn Wieber and Kyla Ross one more time. With Razorback fans and the gymnastics community behind her, Norah Flatley is going out in style.

Today on the podcast I'm very fortunate and excited to have on Jordyn Wieber, head coach of Arkansas gymnastics to chat about her transition from her own gymnastics career to becoming a head coach of a successful College Team.   A phenomenal personal career including Olympic Gold as part of the Fierce Five in London 2012 and multiple World medals.   Jordyn went on to College at UCLA where she ended up becoming the volunteer assistant coach for three years.   This inspired and ignited a new passion for coaching and in April 2019 she became the head coach of the Arkansas Razorbacks gymnastics team.   But how easy was this transition?      We Discuss:   Why you need to be able to read the room and understand what athletes need.    Jordyn Wieber's advice on how to improve a club's culture.   How to be super productive, have expectations, and still have enjoyable training sessions.   The importance of cultivating events, experiences, and relationships outside of the gym.   Jordyn Wieber's top tip on how to be a good recruiter.    And…   Why being a good person goes a long way.

Jordyn Wieber a US Olympic Gold Medalist in gymnastics and current head gymnastics coach for the Arkansas Razorbacks talks Profiles Editor April Wallace about being honored this October 28 at the Woman of Inspiration event a fundraiser for the Child Advocacy Centers of Arkansas. Wieber was one of many sexual abuse victims of sports doctor Larry Nassar, which made headlines for many months. She tells her story in hopes that it will help others and has become a champion for child abuse victims across the country. Her victim impact statement is credited with helping put Nassar away.

On this episode, Derek is recovering from a viral condition so his voice is a bit hoarse but that not going to stop his truly amazing conversation with US Olympic Gold Medalist, Jordyn Wieber. She will discuss how she started in gymnastics, selection to TEAM USA and competing in the 2012 Olympics in London as a member of "The Fierce 5".

Jordyn Wieber is used to winning. From taking home Olympic gold to being part of a championship-winning program at UCLA, Wieber knows what it takes to find success at the highest levels. And so when she became the first Olympic champion to become the head coach of a collegiate program, Wieber knew what she wanted to do.   The Arkansas gymnastics program isn't even 20 years old, but has seen its fair share of successes. With Wieber, there's more buzz than ever—the team has already posted records for attendance and high scores. And it all starts with building a culture and a program with a winning mentality. With an Olympian at the helm—and two others on the coaching staff—Razorback gymnastics is on an upward trajectory. And it all starts with Jordyn Wieber.

Jordyn Wieber is a former American artistic gymnast and was a member of the US Women’s Gymnastics Team, the Fierce Five. Some of her achievements include being a 2012 Olympic gold medalist, 2011 World Champion, three-time American Cup champion, and two-time US National All-around champion. At a young age, after her parents noticed she was a muscular child, they decided to enroll her in gymnastics and she has continued with the sport ever since.   She currently works as a volunteer gymnastics assistant coach at UCLA.  In 2018, Jordyn as well as over 200 other survivors were awarded the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the ESPY’s.     In this episode, Jordyn speaks about her beginnings as a gymnast and how she was always mature, even as a child. Jordyn also speaks about what it was like being Sam’s roommate for a year! She explains her fear of being late to practice and her need for an outlet for competitiveness, as well as her interest in psychology and how she believes the Enneagram test can help athletes understand their and their teammates’ personalities more. Jordyn continuously strives to make gymnastics a safe sport by dismantling the win-at-all-costs mentality to give athletes better opportunities to be successful safely.
