EP1: From balkan courts to u.s dreams, resilience and starting over
Going For It by ema burgic
Episode notes
What does it really feel like to leave everything you know at 18 and move across the world for a chance at your dream? In this episode, Ema (Bosnia) and Xenia (Serbia) share their raw immigrant athlete journeys , from culture shock, loneliness, and the reality of U.S. college tennis, to finding new identities as creators, coaches, and women chasing dreams beyond the court.
Vulnerable, unfiltered, and deeply relatable, this is a story of resilience, identity, and what it means to start over.
