In this episode, I sit down with Hannah Ritter, known for years as the face of TCU Showgirls, whose journey took an unexpected turn when she was cut from the team after three notable seasons.

Hannah debriefs the highs of performing in the spotlight, the pressures behind the perfect game day look, and how game day feels like now without the uniform.

She reflects on the decisions that pushed her to speak up, acknowledge her own worth, and become a trailblazer for herself and her teammates.

Listen to Hannah's story of resilience and why she wouldn't change a thing about the path she followed.

In this episode, TCU Women's Tennis standout Tomi Main serves up insight on life as a collegiate athlete, her competitive mindset, and the untold moments that shape her game.

From navigating three different programs to finding her fit at TCU, Tomi brings the honesty, humor, and heart.

Hear why this will be her last year competing, how she is preparing to close her chapter with tennis, and what she's dreaming up for life after the final point.

In this premiere episode, Devon reflects on the uneven bars of her 15-year journey in gymnastics: the coaches who shaped her, the mental and physical hurdles that tested her, and the sacrifices that wove the sport into her identity.

Along the way, she gained discipline, mental toughness, time management, and a deeper understanding of what resilience really looks like.

This isn’t a tale of medals or rankings. It’s a look at what happens when passion collides with pressure, when discipline becomes second nature, and when choosing a new direction takes more courage than pushing through. Devon shares how walking away at the end of her senior year of high school didn’t feel like giving up, but arriving exactly where she needed to be.

Ultimately, choosing a new direction wasn’t giving up. It was staying true to herself. By the time her senior year ended, she was defined by the growth, perspective, and self-respect she earned. This first chapter sets the tone for Glory Isn’t Always Gold: success isn’t defined by the medals, but by the self-discovery you carry with you long after the season ends.
