Something To Talk About · Kaylee McKeown’s first interview since pulling out of the Commonwealth Games · 18 Jul 2026 podcast

So some people might call that fake, but I just think it's important to give people the energy that you do have left.

So whether it's talking to you or it's talking to my friends, I'm still going to give them the same amount of energy.

It may be a lot less than what I usually have, but I'm still going to try my best.

So that's what I can say for that.

Oh my gosh, it's been so overwhelming, just the amount of love and kind of just support I've received from not only my fellow friends and Dolphin teammates, but the general public as well.

I've had people reach out saying, try this, try that, which I can't obviously do for dopamine control.

And he gave me a list of everything that he went through, all the symptoms.

And it's just something like that where I can look at it and be like, he was worse off than me.

And he's managed to come back and be on an Australian team this year.

So it gives me hope that I can get back into the water sooner rather than later.

The thing I like about myself the most is I'll always put myself first when it comes to my health and my wellbeing.

That's the only time I don't really consider what the general public would think.

And I think anybody needs to be like that as well.

But it did play on my mind that I would be

letting down my teammates, not being in relays and stuff like that.

But on the flip side of that, it also gives people the opportunity to take my position and learn and grow from the experiences where if I was there, I would be taking that away from them.

So it's really, really nice in that aspect of things that what more can you do?

You've got to put your own health first.
