Welcome to a very special episode of Campbells and Co. Bronte officially announces her retirement from swimming.

She leaves the sport as one of the greats. Four Olympics, three Olympic gold medals and multiple world records. But her legacy is so much greater than the achievements in the pool. She was an integral member of the Athlete Leadership Group, President of the Australian Swimmers Association and helped implement swimming's first pregnancy policy.

Cate and Bronte reminisce about her time in the sport - the highs and the lows. Bronte shares how she came to the decision and what she plans to do next and why the best years of her life are still to come.

We hope you enjoy this very special episode of Campbells and Co.

Join Bronte and Cate as they tease an exciting, exclusive episode dropping on Sunday June 7th!

This week on the podcast Cate and Bronte have a little chuckle at the absolute flop that was the Enhanced Games. Bronte reckons she could jump in the pool now, busted ACL and all and still swim faster than the 4th place getter in the women’s 100m freestyle.

The main topic this week is around parenting elite athletes. It’s rare to have one Olympian in a family - let alone two. So what did Mr and Mrs Campbell do to instill excellence, dedication and perseverance in their children? The answer might surprise you.
