And of course, the tough decision she had to make last year. Move to Switzerland or start a proper elite speed skating season in the Netherlands.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If you're interested in Annaleid's Powerful in Balance coaching program, send her a DM on Instagram:<a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/actuallyannaxo/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> </a><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/annaleidtoelge/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@annaleidtoelge</a></p><p>Or check out her newest podcast:<a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/6UXfjWZKGaNVgG6aDsCYBV?si=f8cc92f9051248da\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">&nbsp;Powerful in Balance</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>By sharing her story in this podcast, Annaleid hopes to support other (former) elite athletes or those approaching retirement.
