E59 - Livi Sheldon - Gladiators, setbacks and standing tall

Nicky catches up with athlete and BBC Gladiator Livi Sheldon, known to millions as “Diamond.” In this conversation, Livi opens up about growing up as a sporty kid who didn’t fit in, being bullied for her height, and how fitness helped her find confidence. She talks about her journey from personal training to bodybuilding, and the incredible moment she became a Gladiator. Livi also shares the reality of recovering from a devastating ACL injury, how she stays positive through rehab, and the lessons she’s learned about resilience, discipline and self-belief.
