Hayley Raso is a legend of Australian football. She’s clocked up over a decade with the Matilda’s squad and is ready to hit the pitch for the upcoming FIFA World Cup in July.

After breaking her back and having to learn how to walk again in 2018, Hayley couldn't be more proud to be representing Australia on the world stage again. She joins Cate and Hayley to talk about what it’s like to recover from injury so far away from home, her infamous hair ribbons, and what Australia needs to do to take home the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023.

Isabella Nichols is one of the best female surfers in the world. In April this year, she was defending her 2022 title at the Margaret River Pro where only the top ten surfers would progress. Isabella did not progress, she was cut.

In this episode, Isabella sits down with Cate and Hayley to talk about what she has coined “the worst year of her life”. From the pressure of self-funding a worldwide surf tour, to her mental health and its impact in and out of the water. Isabella reveals what it’s really like when your goal is ripped away from you, and how you can get back out there.
