Make Yourself at Home

What does home mean to you? On Make Yourself at Home, host Kristin Twiford takes you into the homes of people you admire, to give you a window into who they really are. You’ll hear what drives them, what gives them a sense of purpose, how they unwind, and how they choose to spend their time meaningfully — but perhaps more importantly — their favorite room in the house, their guilty pleasures, and their most cherished possessions. Along the way, we hope to inspire you to live better, whatever that means to you. Make Yourself at Home is produced by Nines, the household management app that helps you live with ease.

Flipping the Script and Turning Pressure Into Fuel with Olympic Medalist, World Champion Swimmer and Bestselling Author Katie Hoff

May 04, 2023 • Nines • Season 1 • Episode 24

Katie Hoff went to her first Olympic Games in Athens at the age of 15. She’s won 8 World Championships and 3 Olympic medals, and she spent years breaking world records and being heralded as the female Michael Phelps. After decades competing on the world stage, she knows a lot about extraordinary pressure.

Now, as a mentor, keynote speaker and bestselling author, she helps other people turn that pressure into fuel — whether they’re striving for gold medals and national championships or working towards a promotion at work.

In this episode of Make Yourself at Home, Katie shares how she translates the process that helped her find unshakeable confidence in swimming to other arenas, and why she's passionate about helping other people push back against nerves to achieve their goals. And, after a lifetime of being on the go, she talks about how she and her husband (and fellow athlete) Todd Anderson have found home in Nashville, and why they chose this place to grow both their personal lives and their training business, Synergy Dryland.
