| 0:00.0 | The point where I was, I never specialized in a sport. I didn't pick up growing until much later in life. |
| 0:06.0 | I was 30 pounds heavier than I had ever been. I hadn't been on a consistent sports team for two and a half years. |
| 0:11.6 | My grades were tanking. Everything in my life was not going right. I was staying up late. I was hanging out with a totally different group of friends. So I was on this aimless path where I was like, I just want to be |
| 0:21.0 | happy. What does that even mean? I'm wandering in the woods. I'm off in the bushes somewhere. |
| 0:25.1 | And then rowing this opportunity to try this sport entered my life. And so all I knew was that I didn't |
| 0:30.8 | want to be off in the weeds anymore. So let's try this. Welcome. You're on air with Ella where we share simple strategies and tips from people |
| 0:42.4 | who are doing something better than we are, whether it's wellness or relationships to just living |
| 0:47.6 | better and with more energy or changing your mindset to accomplish more in your own life |

| 1:17.6 | I'm Lindsay Schoop, and I am actually an Olympic gold medalist in the sport of rowing. |
| 1:22.4 | Not something I started with from a young age. We'll talk about that a little bit later, |
| 1:25.8 | but I'm also a coach, |
| 1:33.1 | author, speaker, and now most recently a sport commentator. I've worked with NBC, a little bit of ESPN, got some more things coming down the pipe. But yeah, coach, author, speaker, and Olympic gold |
| 1:38.2 | medalist. You may have left a couple things off. A three-time world champion, national rowing Hall of Fame inductee. No big |
| 1:46.6 | deal. I guess I sometimes do neglect that fact that my teammates and I, when we won the Olympics |
| 1:53.7 | in Beijing in 2008, we were actually the first to win Olympic gold in any event in women's |
| 1:59.8 | rowing for the United States at 2,000 meters. |
