#567: Normalizing motherhood in sport

from The GIST of It · host The GIST of It

We’re celebrating for all the right reasons today. Blayre Turnbull of the Toronto Sceptres is pregnant, marking the first PWHL player going through pregnancy in the league’s three-year history. It felt like as good a time as any to explore what the PWHL’s maternity policy is and how it stacks up to the rest of the pro women’s sports landscape. Show notes:Check out Jumpstart Canadian Tire charities The GIST:📰 Newsletter: Subscribe to The GIST✉️ Email: [email protected] 📷 Instagram: @thegistusa @thegistca @ellenatthegist @stephanierotz
