story time in 2019 i qualified for the world athletics championships in Doha via world rankings but i didn't get selected by my federation because they believed i wouldn't medal or make the final there i was 21 years old and i was devastated as i had trained so hard however earlier that year i got talking to a random guy that i was sat next to in my lecture at uni he asked me what my dream job would be if i wasn't an athlete and i said ' tv presenter' a few months later he got a summer internship at the BBC and every day he pitched about me to them the exec at bbc listened, liked my content on instagram and then gave me a call i ended up going to that world championships as a fully accredited bbc presenter it was so much fun!!!! moral of the story sometimes things don't work out the way you want them too.. but they can still work out! oh and speak up about your dreams, you never know who is listening! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUM7Ru3Qnhs
