Hello! We're back and this week we're so excited to bring you an new interview with one of my all time favourites of Australian swimming - Giaan Rooney. 

Giaan joined the Australian swimming team at 15, and went on to participate in multiple Olympic and Commonwealth Games and World Championships. She's collected a host of medals for relays and individual swims, and today is a much loved and respected part of the swimming commentary team. Her transition from swimming to real life wasn't entirely seamless, but my goodness, it was close. I am in awe of what she has achieved and her process to work through everything.

Enjoy!

We're doing to mid term check in, and the vibe in our households is a-v-e-r-a-g-e. Why? Because we've accidentally signed our families up to too much sport. So in a move which is very off brand for us, we're giving parents permission to say no to sport - NOT ALL SPORT - just too much of it.

Kim Ravaillion is one of the most electric players to watch on a netball court. But her ability to play and move almost came to complete end in 2023, when she woke up one morning to find that she couldn't move her leg. So what had happened to bring Kim to this point? And,  what happened next...?

You can find Kim on Instagram @kimmyrav, check out her online fitness program @ravsfitness and of course see her in the purple dress for the Queensland Firebirds.

A drugs in sport scandal has broken just before the Paris Olympics - only it feels like it should have broken before the Tokyo Olympics? How are we all 3 years late to this crisis?

We’ve got another special conversation from the archives, this times with Australia’s Chef de Mission and all round brilliant human, Anna Meares.

Anna Meares is Australia’s most decorated cycling Olympian, with six medals to her name. While she had 16 years of podium-level performance, there was nothing easy about that career, and things certainly didn’t get easier when she retired. I love this conversation as much now as I did two years ago!
