ever wonder why every athlete post-competition interview sounds the same?

media training is real and it made me so scared to be myself 

at world youth championships in 2015 

we were told who to thank and what not to say in interviews

we had our facebook post screenshots shared on the screen to show how easy it was to find what we are writing online

it was almost drilled into us that once we become an athlete we take up a new spotless identity

i am still on a journey of unlearning this

but being onchain has given me freedom

it's refreshing to not have to pander to governing bodies and/or sponsors to make an income

and warpcast seems like the best place for me to start sharing more of my stories and hopefully shed light on the good, bad and ugly realities of being a sportsperson! 

lmk if you have any thoughts/questions

How do people normally manage their id? Do they typically keep some anon account where only close friends know about where they can be themselves for example?

ex-/airswap. part time node runner, full time shitcaster, all time higher

yep almost everyone has a private insta account where they post what they want or they post on close friends stories

Yeah that makes sense! Hopefully self funded or crowd funded models allow more athletes to self express!
