    Some dives stay with you foreverโ€ฆ but not always for the right reasons.

    Over the years I’ve dived in some of the most extraordinary places on Earth, from crocodile-infested rivers to waters filled with electric eels, anacondas and some of the ocean’s most formidable predators. In this video, I’m counting down five dives that I wouldn’t recommend to most people and why.

    After some running focus at the beginning of the year, and then winning my first World Series of 2026 in Alghero 3 weeks before, Quiberon marked my second race of 2026 in the WTCS. Racing in France has always brought out the best in me – the support from the home crowd is incredible, but it also brings extra pressure, expectations, and emotions that I’m still learning how to manage.

    In this video, I share some of the behind the scenes stress that goes into these races. This is something I’ve struggled with a lot since the Olympics, and something I’m trying to adapt and improve every race. We also hear from my coach, Glenn Poleunis, as well as my grandparents, who have supported me in the highest and lowest moments throughout my career.

    Did you know that you donโ€™t have to be a swimmer to get swimmerโ€™s ear? In fact, millions of people get it each year from simple things like trapped humidity, extra moisture after a shower, or even wearing ear buds too much. But how can you tell the difference between swimmer’s ear and an ear infection? And what can you do to treat itโ€”and better yet, prevent it from happening in the first place.

    On this episode of the Healthier You podcast, Dr. Ashlee Williams speaks with Dr. Nicole Cimino-Fiallos, an Urgent Care physician at Kaiser Permanente about swimmerโ€™s ear, how itโ€™s treated, and steps you can take to prevent it and keep your ears healthy.
