The coaching section is great example of being both informative to the listener, and cathartic for the presenter @IvyAudrain :smiley: Point taken

It would have been cool to hear more about Savilia and her story. With that said, she was definitely one of the better guests and gave some quality insight and advice for racing. I liked the headspace talk.
