If you’ve ever hit a low point or felt like starting over is impossible, this conversation is for you. In today’s episode, we sit down with WTA pro, Jamie Loeb, as she opens up about one of the toughest years of her life—including losing her father, stepping away from the sport, and rebuilding herself mentally and physically for a 2026 comeback.

Tennis players and fans alike know how overwhelming it can feel when life derails your goals. That’s why this episode focuses on the human side of the journey: how she’s healing, how she’s training, and how she’s preparing to grind her way from the bottom of the rankings back into competing with the world’s best.

We’ve covered pro tennis for years, and this is one of the most honest, grounded, and inspiring conversations we’ve ever hosted. Whether you’re an athlete, a fan, or someone simply trying to bounce back from a hard season, her story offers perspective—and a reminder that a comeback isn’t a moment…it’s a process.

• How she processed grief and burnout while stepping away from the WTA Tour

• Why 2026 represents more than a comeback — it's a fresh start

• The mindset shift that helped her rebuild confidence

• What training looks like when you’re starting from the bottom

• Her plan to climb back into the top ranks

• The pressure, the hope, the grind… and the excitement for what’s next

If you’re looking for motivation or simply want to understand what life on tour really looks like beyond the match results, this conversation brings clarity and encouragement.

In this episode, Catherine Harrison opens up about the toughest stretch of her career -- multiple injuries, months off tour, and the honest conversations that pushed her to rethink what longevity and success really mean. Now, with 2026 on the horizon, she’s committing fully to doubles to chase the Grand Slam she knows she’s capable of.

Tennis fans get an inside look at the mindset shift, the rehab grind, the challenge of rebuilding confidence, and what goes into choosing the right partner. Catherine breaks down how doubles offers a clearer path to winning at the biggest stages, and why this next chapter feels more intentional, more strategic, and more exciting than anything she’s done before.

Whether you’ve followed her since UCLA or discovered her on tour, this is Catherine’s open and detailed account and a powerful reminder of why comebacks in tennis matter.
