Episode 37
Wednesday, 20 November, 2024

This week, we’re joined by Evely Kaasiku, fresh off her incredible performances in 2024 and a true trailblazer for Estonian orienteering. 🥈 Did you know she’s the first Estonian woman to medal at the EOC? From the flat, green terrains of Türi to Helsingin Suunnistajat, we dive into her journey as a late-career peak athlete balancing elite sport with her marketing career. 🇪🇪 📉 What’s it like quitting work to go full-time as an athlete, only to return later? How does working with emotions at Feedbackly parallel the mental side of elite sport? And how should orienteers sell themselves to employers—or even to the public? 🎙️ Plus: Ralph’s dramatic hospital scare 🩸 Tim’s treadmill (yes, it needs a name—any ideas?) Catch Episode 37 now for stories, insights, and a fresh perspective from one of Estonia’s brightest orienteers! 🌟 #Orienteering #Podcast #EvelyKaasiku #EliteSport #StayinAlive
