Sasha Gollish | Perimenopause & the Competitive Athlete (CMA Menopause Series 2/6)
Sasha Gollish is a 42-year old elite middle and long distance runner who holds the masters world record in the indoor mile (4:38.73) and also represented Team Canada in the marathon at the 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest, Hungary. Sasha has been very open on social media about the challenging perimenopausal symptoms she’s been navigating for the past several years and we just love her honesty & transparency on a subject matter that has historically been clouded in secrecy and shame. Seeing female athletes at the top of their game well into their 40s is a relatively new phenomenon and yet it’s starting to happen across many disciplines. Always one to stand up for what she believes in, Sasha is now using her platform to change the narrative about this stage of life and show women that we can absolutely kick butt into midlife and beyond.Sponsor: Canadian Masters AthleticsWebsite: canadianmasters.caJoin the CMA Facebook Group: @cma.vca is the best place to continue the menopause conversation!Instagram: @canadianmastersathletics35Previous episodes in this series:Jill Moreash | Thriving in PostmenopauseConnect with Sasha:Instagram: @sgollishrunsWebsite: www.sashagollish.com Resources we discussed in this episode:Our previous Inspired Soles interview with SashaThe Light We Give by Simran Jeet SinghConnect with Carolyn & Kim:Email us with guest ideas: [email protected] Soles InstagramKim's InstagramKim's FacebookCarolyn's InstagramCarolyn's FacebookCarolyn's websiteWe love hearing from you!
