Episode Synopsis

What happens when the life you've always known comes to an end? For Olympic diver Cassidy Krug, that moment came after her final dive, leaving her with a gold-medal identity crisis. This film follows her journey from the high-stakes world of competitive sports into 'the murk'—that confusing, messy, and often terrifying space between who we were and who we are becoming.Weaving her story with the powerful and deeply human experiences of a lawyer escaping burnout, a woman redefining motherhood after infertility, and others facing life-altering change, this documentary challenges everything we've been taught about grit and success. It is a raw, humorous, and ultimately hopeful exploration of the art of letting go, the courage to quit, and the quiet revolution of building a life that is truly your own.
