For athletes everywhere, this Summer is one full of emotion - whether you've had the games of your dreams, things haven't gone to plan or you're at home wishing things had gone differently.
Remember you are always going to be a #hero of your sport, whether you win gold or not.

It was a remarkable session and on reflection we were all so grateful for the opportunity to practise under pressure. If you are looking for something to focus on outside of your sport to further your career and development, this is a great place to start.โ #athletes#more2me
Hear what @ehorler has to say about #nextstepready
"The monthly sessions provided a great opportunity for me to reflect on some personal traits and experiences which I would have not done otherwise. @chloe_dudding & @valuenotprice have been so engaging throughout the program..
.. and offered much support, acting like mentors on a number of occasions.
We were also flung into numerous situations that were not comfortable. One of our final sessions, we were told we had 15 minutes to prepare for three separate interviews by experienced corporate leaders.
Thank you @_georgerossiter for your #nextstepready feedback:
"The next step ready course was a brilliant experience and something I'd recommend to all athletes. I learnt so much about myself and what I can bring to the business world through my transferable skills...
We were put under pressure through challenging tasks and became able to adapt and use our skills in new scenarios. I learnt from everyone involved: Chloe and Dean, the other athletes and the external guests, all of which I am delighted to have as contacts for the future."
