This week on the Propulsion Swimming Podcast we are joined by Swim England CEO, Jane Nickerson MBE to help us answer all of your questions about how the current Energy Crisis and Cost of Living increase is going to affect swimming and the leisure industry in the UK.

We ask Jane why it's so important the Government helps fund the energy bills Leisure Centres are currently facing, and how everyone can best support the #SaveOurPools campaign!

This week on the Propulsion Swimming Podcast we speak to University of Kentucky swimmer, Mason Wilby.  

A 200m Butterfly specialist, training out of the States, Mason Wilby is officially a member of Team England for the upcoming Birmingham Commonwealth Games.   

We talk to Mason about why he chose to represent British Swimming and England despite never training in the UK, as well as talking through a tough swimming plateau.   

Mason went 4 years without a PB, only to end up dropping his 200m Fly PB by a massive 4 seconds in one swim. He discusses the advice he would give others going through the same struggles and how training with Calaeb Dressel and Ryan Lochte helped get him through the tough time!

On this week's episode of the Propulsion Swimming Podcast, we are talking about Mental Health, in line with Mental Health Awareness week here in the UK, and specifically Body Image and Eating Disorders in swimming.   

For this episode, we are joined by the fantastic Amber Keegan, an elite swimmer at the City of Sheffield, who helps us discuss this important topic by opening up about her own journey through swimming with an eating disorder.   

We hope by having this discussion we can give the others swimmers the confidence to seek any help they might need. We have both unfortunately lost a former teammate and friend to Mental Health. So it really is a topic we will forever discuss and promote as part of the Propulsion Swimming Podcast.
