In the Season 4 Finale (Episode 7) of Hahnacity the Podcast, we’re joined by Savannah Kamau and her mother, Tracy Adams—two generations of gymnasts whose shared journey through sport has shaped their identities, their relationship, and the way they now show up for others.

Savannah began competitive gymnastics at just six years old, spending a decade navigating the beauty, intensity, and challenges of a sport that brought both pride and hardship. Now a retired gymnast and coach at The Rise Gym, she reflects on how injuries, setbacks, and moments of triumph shaped her resilience and deepened her passion for helping young athletes feel supported and understood. Tracy, a retired gymnast herself, shares the emotional experience of watching her daughter grow through sport—holding space for both the joy and the vulnerability that come with chasing big dreams.

Together, they close out Season 4 with an honest conversation about family, identity, healing, and what gymnastics gave them—and what it asked of them. This finale is a reflection on legacy, growth, and the lasting bond between athlete and parent long after competition ends.

In Episode 6 of Hahnacity the Podcast, we’re joined by Amelia Cline, Abby Spadafora, and Melanie Hunt from Athletes Empowered—former athletes turned advocates who are working to make sport safer, healthier, and more human for the next generation.

Drawing from their lived experiences in gymnastics and sport systems, Amelia, Abby, and Melanie share how their personal journeys shaped their commitment to survivor advocacy, education, and meaningful change. From navigating abuse and the complexities of reporting processes, to building peer support programs and pushing for policy reform, they open up about the courage it takes to speak out—and the power of community in healing and accountability.

Together, they discuss why safe sport matters, what true athlete empowerment looks like, and how parents, coaches, and athletes can help create environments where young people are seen as human first, athlete second.

In this episode of Hahnacity the Podcast, we sit down with Isaiah Neil, a former University of Alberta Golden Bears football player who turned his own struggles into a mission to support youth mental health.

Behind the strength and toughness expected of a student-athlete, Isaiah was navigating challenges that forced him to rethink what resilience really means. Stepping away from football became the beginning of a new purpose—using honesty, storytelling, and connection to help young people feel seen, supported, and less alone.

Now a keynote speaker working with youth across Canada, Isaiah shares why talking openly about mental health matters, how vulnerability can be a form of leadership, and what he’s learned about rebuilding identity beyond sport. This conversation is about courage, healing, and the power of showing up as your full self.
