Listen to the last episode:
We hear from 4-time Olympic gold medallist Libby Trickett and her entrepreneurial husband Liam.
Libby Trickett (Lenton) competed for Australia at the highest level, winning gold in the pool in Beijing and London.
At the height of her swimming career she married fellow swimmer Luke Trickett, who had left the sport and was using the skills he'd learnt as an athlete to enter the business world.
We hear how the Global Financial Crisis inspired Luke’s entrepreneurial spirit. And through it all, how teamwork has been their ultimate key to success in transitioning to new careers after retiring from competitive sports.
