Shownotes

Charlotte Henshaw is a medal favourite in her 'new' sport of paracanoe after competing at 3 Paralympics in GB's swimming team.

But she's recently had surgery and had a diagnosis of endometriosis. So we talk about female athlete health and how the condition has affected her.

We also discus mental health during these Covid times and Charlotte explains how she deals with the uncertainty over the Games and how she used similar method to deal with her anxiety watching the news in the early days of the pandemic.
