Interview with Olympic Volleyball Player Kerri Walsh for P&G Thank You Mom Campaign

I recently had the opportunity to interview Olympic Team USA beach volleyball player (and mom to 2 boys), Kerri Walsh who is preparing to bring home the gold in London this summer.  We chatted about being a mom athlete, what it’s like training for the Olympics while parenting toddlers, bikini motivation, and the importance of kids playing sports–subjects that are very close to my heart.  She shared inspiration and advice that reinforced some things I already knew and other tips that will change the way I parent my own little athletes.

Here is a link to the video in case you’re viewing this in a reader.

The most important thing I took from our conversation was that as moms, we are all connected and bonded by a common goal and shared experience.  We want to raise good people and P&G wants to support us in doing so with it’s P&G|Team USA Youth Sports Fund.  So, get involved by “liking” the P&G `Thank You, Mom’ Facebook page (for every new “like” the page receives, the company will donate $1 to the P&G|Team USA Youth Sports Fund… up to $100,000), share your stories, and show support.
