The Upside: Dame Valerie Adams

Adapting to life after competitive sport has presented new challenges for Olympic great Dame Valerie Adams. From taking on new roles, balancing motherhood, to getting comfortable with being uncomfortable, Dame Valerie shares how she juggles it all - while protecting her wellbeing.

Hosted by sports broadcaster and writer Scotty Stevenson, The Upside is a new TV and podcast series which offers meaningful, revealing, inspiring and hopefully helpful conversations with six well-known New Zealanders who have been through some mentally tough times - and are now back on the up.
