**Note this content was from Season 1, previously known as 'Life After Cheer'. We've since rebranded to 'The SQUAD' - an exciting new name with the same great content, enjoy! PS - come join us over on Insta' @thesquad_co

Today we are talking with Maddie Gardner - a name I'm sure you recognize. 

Maddie is a World Champion athlete, internationally recognized all-star cheerleader, and today, a top news anchor and reporter at WBTV News in Charlotte, NC! Before her career success, Maddie was a world-renowned cheerleader- winning two World Championships with Cheer Extreme Senior Elite and ultimately captaining the Varsity cheerleading team at UNC, leading the team through NCAA Men's Basketball appearances, including the 2016 National Championship!


Maddie always had a plan in mind, knowing that when her time in cheer ended (sad face), she wanted to focus her full efforts on her career  - and that she did! 

Maddie is quickly climbing the ranks as a news reporter - and in this episode, we talk about how being a cheerleader has helped Maddie in her career success today! 

 In today's episode, we chat: 

• How to follow your passion and stay dedicated to your plan
• The stress of perfectionism
• What the transition to life after cheer is really like. 
• Oh, and we dive into Maddie's fav workouts - and yes, we share the same passion for fitness!
