OLIVIA CLIFFORD | Australian National Karate Team | Olympics 2021 | Balancing Education and Training

On this episode of the podcast Joe was joined by Olivia Clifford via zoom call. Liv is black belt in Karate, having spent over a decade practicing and developing her craft which lead to her travelling around the world competing and representing Australia. We also discussed her background growing up, coming from a small country town and her upbringing. Another topic of discussion was her experiences travelling whilst competing and how she balances studying full time at university for a Bachelors Degree in Nursing, whilst working multiple jobs and still training consistently. Liv gave Joe insight into how she managed to stay disciplined throughout the lockdown and then developed into an in depth discussion about her fighting style and game plan coming into her tournaments.
