Spanish Netball Chaos

Every Damn Day is a podcast about what happens when you commit to doing something, well… every damn day. Based on the stories from my book Every Damn Day, each episode dives into one of the challenges I’ve taken on over the past decade, from reading a book a week, to learning te reo Māori, dancing every day, changing the way I eat, writing a book, and plenty of other questionable decisions along the way. These are not stories about perfect discipline, morning routines, or becoming the best version of yourself by 5am. They’re stories about what actually happens when life gets busy, motivation disappears, plans go sideways, and you decide to keep going anyway. There are successes, failures, unexpected lessons, embarrassing moments, a bit of science, and hopefully plenty of laughs. This week, we head to Spain for a netball tournament and a lesson in what happens when determination runs headfirst into biology.It’s a story about injury, grit, stubbornness, knowing when perseverance is useful, and recognising that sometimes your body gets the final vote. Sometimes the challenge is pushing through. Sometimes the challenge is accepting that you can’t. One year. One challenge. Every damn day.
