S2E3 - Awhina Tangen-Wainohu: BlackFern

from Yeah the Mums Podcast · host yeahthemumspodcast

From Factory Worker to BlackFern ✨ Motherhood became the ULTIMATE perspective shifter for Awhina, helping her to realise that if she set her mind to it, she could 100% achieve it.  Motherhood showed her what she really wanted and what she was absolutely capable of. Making her journey bigger and better after having her son and now she can take him along for the ride too! Even to places a 5 year old definitely didn't know existed!! With her own childhood full of up's and downs, she got an opportunity to play the sport that would eventually see her achieving greatness in New Zealand's favourite sport. But the sport didn't just give highlights, it gave her some of her lowest too. With a serious neck injury halting her dreams. Nothing would stop her though... with her most recently being a strong player in the RWC in England. Hear her story, feel her determination and thrive off of her inspiration.
