The Olympian financial planner – Balancing passion and profession

The ifa Show

In this episode of the ifa Show, host Maja Garaca Djurdjevic is joined by Olympian and financial adviser at HLB Mann Judd Sarah Carli, to discuss how she made her way from the track to financial advice.

Ms Carli, who competed in the 400-metre hurdles at the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, explains how she found her way to financial advice and the valuable skills she has learnt as an adviser that have positively impacted her athletic career, as well as how she balances being a professional athlete with working full time. Listen as they discuss:

• The importance of a supportive work environment.
• How she balances her professional and athletic commitments.
• How there are more transferable skills between athletics and advice than many might expect.
• Her goals beyond the Paris Olympics for both her career as an athlete and an adviser.
