  • The gymnastics legend sits down with Kelley O’Hara to discuss her journey to Olympic greatness and her life after sports.
    Gymnastics icon Nastia Liukin joins Kelley O’Hara to discuss her journey to Olympic gold. The daughter of two former Soviet champion gymnasts, Nastia was born in Moscow, Russia, before her family found their way to Plano, Texas. There, Nastia followed in her parents’ footsteps, quickly ascending to the top of her sport. In this conversation, Nastia discusses her legendary 2008 Olympic battle with fellow American Shawn Johnson, the effects of that rivalry on the two gymnasts’ friendship, her attempt to make the 2012 Olympics, and what she’s learned from both winning and falling short on the world’s biggest stage.

    I am so glad I watched this. I was like why is this in my feed? I'm not interested in watching a couple of chicks blather on about whatever. Boy was I wrong. I found Nastia to be so real, candid, intelligent, funny, with this personality that leaves you with an almost empty feeling as in I wish I knew this person and her family and since I don't it's a bummer.
    Also Kelley is really cool. Great interviewer. I am sad it ended.

    I was wondering that same thing about her practicing on the bars with an injury where she couldn't dismount. It's funny how Kelley said, "Did you just slow down then you're hanging there?" I was thinking the same thing.
