Named one of the 20 Most Influential Women in Sports by Women’s Sports & Fitness,Gabby first came into the spotlight for her prolific volleyball career. In 1997, competing with the best global beach volleyball players ever assembled, Gabby’s 4-person team took first place at the first-ever Beach Volleyball World Championships. She continued playing across the next decade until she was five months pregnant in the summer of 2007. Besides her time as a player, Gabby has been featured in feature films, top-rated television shows, and magazines.
As a role model, Gabby has taken the opportunity to advocate healthier eating for future generations. She has an ongoing relationship with the American Heart Association Teaching Gardens, an initiative benefiting needy schools through the planting of organic gardens, by which she speaks to children about the importance of eating healthy and regular exercise (www.takepart/teachinggarden).
During today’s show, host Elle Russ talks to Gabby about a range of issues, spanning diet, pesticide use in Hawaii, raising children (with her husband, and previous guest on the podcast, Laird Hamilton), and ballistic training.
