Charlotte Flair Announces New “Off The Pedestal With Ashley Fliehr” Podcast To Launch In Few Weeks

As noted before, WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair revealed this past June that his daughter Charlotte Flair has been working on a new podcast series called “Off The Pedestal with Ashley Fliiehr.”

A recent episode of the Set, Hut! with Russell Wilson and Kyle Long podcast featured Charlotte as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Charlotte’s thoughts about why she started a podcast and revealed that it will be launching in a few weeks.

“Yes, it launches in a few weeks. While I was out on injury, when I tore my knee, I really needed to find purpose because, I don’t know about you guys, but wrestling is my life. So, when I wasn’t in the ring, I was kind of like, ‘Who am I?’ I definitely put my self-worth on not necessarily the titles but, lacing my boots, the robe, the crown, fighting, and I was like, ‘OK, I don’t know what’s next but I know I can help people and that makes me feel good,’ and I think it was also being honest with myself that I was tying my self-worth to the job. Not that I woke up one day and was like, man, I really wanna have a podcast because everyone has a podcast. But I wanted to create a space for athletes where we can kind of talk about these conversations that I think necessarily haven’t been… comfortable to talk about. Where like, hey, I’ve gone through body dysmorphia, I’ve gone through self-worth issues, I’ve gone through what it means to be at the top and the pressures and what that did to me mentally and emotionally and putting myself to the side. When you’re at the top, you never want to not be at the top. But for me, hurting my knee brought me down here, which I was like, OK, I needed that dip to get back to here and that’s why I’m doing that podcast.”
