GUINNESS WORLD RECORD

We Did It! 🥇

It was a rainy Friday morning, and after only four hours of restless sleep, the journey to a Guinness World Record began. Despite the early start, I felt ready for the challenge that lay ahead.

Surrounded by the energy of my kids, the unwavering support of my amazing husband, and the calm strength of freediver Jordy, everything fell into place. A quick drive to the pool, a powerful moment with Joe, and the empowering sounds of Sia’s "Unstoppable" in my ears set the stage.

As the countdown began, I dove into the water, embarking on 100 laps to attempt the world record. What stood out most wasn’t just the physical effort—though staying focused every 36 seconds to leave the wall felt like a constant rhythm. The real celebration came from the mental clarity, the unwavering belief in myself, and the pure joy of knowing I was ready for this moment.

Each lap, every second of that one hour underwater, felt incredible. The goal was in sight, and with each turn, I felt closer to something bigger than just the record itself. There were moments of discomfort—like the CO2 headaches and some minor miscommunication—but they didn’t break my focus. With resilience and gratitude, I surrendered to the process.

The celebration that followed was nothing short of magical—hugs, interviews, and an overwhelming sense of accomplishment that reminded me of the strength I’ve built, not just physically, but mentally as well.

Now, this moment has opened a new chapter. I’m channeling this sense of achievement into sharing my love for freediving through online courses and coaching—with you.

As for what's next? The adventure continues with an exciting deep dive into Egypt’s Blue Hole. As my coach Martin said, the ocean’s depth far surpasses the pool—and I can’t wait to experience that for myself!
