Beyond the Finish Line: Navigating Identity in Ottawa
Welcome to this audio documentary, where I take you on a journey through self-discovery after leaving the world of Sprint Canoe, once driven by Olympic dreams. As COVID-19 derailed my career in sport, returning to Ottawa became the catalyst of my identity quest. Join me as I navigate the shift from athlete to full-time student, unravelling the layers of who I am.
In this audio documentary, I will take the listener on a journey through the various identities I formed as a resident of Ottawa. From national team athlete to student and everything in between, we visited some of the spaces that defined those periods of my life.
From finding myself in university to the uncertainties of post-graduation, this narrative weaves through twists and turns. It's a tale of finding oneself when life keeps changing, emphasizing that the journey holds more value than a fixed identity.
