Hoots, hoolies and a whole lotta Women’s Sport

Join Laura and Kany as they dive into the raw, honest, and often humorous reality of hitting 40 and hitting the "reset" button on their careers. After leaving high-pressure roles in banking and cyber security, both women have embraced self-employment and the grit of contact sports.In this episode, they discuss: The Identity Shift: Navigating the "identity crisis" that comes with leaving a corporate routine and finding a new sense of purpose. Controlled Aggression: Why rugby and boxing provide more than just fitness—proving you can "do hard things" and finding mental strength through broken noses and sparring sessions. Authentic Coaching: Moving away from elitist fitness standards and scale-weight obsessions to focus on inclusivity, sustainable health, and the "Tight Five Method". Being a "Badass" Role Model: Challenging the "second-class citizen" status of women in male-dominated sports and the power of being unapologetically present. Life at 40: From managing hangovers and "beer fear" to prioritizing rest, active recovery, and the occasional celebratory glass of champagne.Whether you're facing a career transition or looking for the motivation to start a new sport at any age, this conversation offers a "real-life," relatable look at thriving—not just surviving—after 40.
