S02E07 Netball Her: Changing the Game for Women in Sport

In this episode, Krystine and Carla sit down to tackle the "taboos" that have kept women on the sidelines for too long. From the first whistle of puberty through the strategic shifts of menopause, they explore the Netball Her initiative and how it’s revolutionising the way we play, coach, and talk about female health. It’s an empowering deep dive into the physical journey of being a female athlete, packed with practical advice to keep girls and women thriving on the court through every life stage. It’s time we stop whispering about sports bras and cycles and start shouting about how we can stay in the game—because, let’s be honest, we’ve all had a "leakage" scare that was more stressful than a last-minute penalty shot!

One day, you’ll see me living my other dream: starring in a soap opera. Carla Garey A self-confessed netball addict, I’ve been playing for nearly 14 years and basically live and breathe the sport (my husband insists on calling it “a hobby,” but we all know better 😆). When I’m not on court, I’m running multiple businesses, wrangling my five kids, and squeezing 20 tasks into every day. I work at 100 miles an hour and get more done before lunch than most people manage all week — fuelled entirely by Diet Coke and donuts.
