Olivia Smart on The Reality of Life as an Olympic Athlete

Join us on this week's episode of If You Know You Know as Tory sits down with Olivia Smart, 4x Spanish National Champion, Spanish ice dancer, and 2022 & 2026 Winter Olympian.

Olivia opens up about what it really takes to compete on the world's biggest stage, from the sacrifices behind the scenes to the pressure of performing at the Olympics. She shares the difference between ice dancing and figure skating, how much Olympic athletes actually make, the biggest mistake people make when chasing success, how she found her way into elite sport, and why mental health and stronger support systems for athletes are more important than ever. This is an honest conversation about resilience, ambition, and what success really looks like when the cameras stop rolling.
