Four years after Taliban fighters retook the capital Kabul on 15 August 2021, UN Women, the gender equality agency, is warning that the situation for women and girls in Afghanistan is increasingly untenable. They say without urgent action, this untenable reality will become normalised and women and girls will be fully excluded. To discuss further Anita Rani was joined by Fawzia Koofi, former deputy speaker of the Afghan Parliament & peace negotiator, and BBC senior Afghan reporter Mahjooba Nowrouzi, recently returned from Afghanistan.As rugby fans across the UK look forward to the Women's Rugby World Cup, Anita speaks with rugby trailblazer Deborah Griffin. An amateur player since university, Deborah co-organised the first ever Women's Rugby World Cup, held in Wales in 1991. Earlier this month, she became the first woman to take up the role of President of the Rugby Football Union.A woman in Wales who felt forced to terminate her pregnancy after being unable to access the anti-sickness medication she needed is calling for the drug to be made more widely available. Sarah Spooner was suffering from hyperemesis gravidarum which left her vomiting more than 20 times per day and unable to eat or drink. But she found it virtually impossible to access Xonvea, a medication which is recommended as a first-line treatment in England but not in Wales. Nuala McGovern hears Sarah's story, and speaks to Dr Caitlin Dean from Pregnancy Sickness Support about why there is a postcode lottery across the UK for women needing Xonvea.Emma Holten tells us we need a feminist revolution. The author has spent years investigating the true value of care - and how rethinking it could transform our societies. Her debut book, Deficit: How Feminist Economics Can Change Our World, examines how mainstream economics systematically undervalues care work and advocates for reshaping policy to reflect its true worth.England goalkeeper and Lionesses legend Hannah Hampton joins Nuala on Woman's Hour fresh from winning the UEFA European Women's Championship. Born with a serious eye condition, doctors told her she should never play football. She came into the recent Euros with questions over her ability to fill the gloves of recently retired Mary Earps. To add to that, she revealed her grandfather had died just days before the biggest tournament of her life began earlier this summer. Despite this, Hannah had an extraordinary tournament, particularly in those agonising penalty shootouts. She joined Nuala to chat all about it.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Annette Wells Editor: Emma Pearce

Eighty years ago today, Japan unconditionally surrendered, following the US atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The war in Asia and Pacific ended, and World War Two was finally over. Tens of thousands of British, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers from across Britain's empire had fought Japan. Thousands were taken as prisoners of war and held in appalling conditions. British civilians were also captured and interned.

"Missing Olympic selection again broke me, but it reminded me I'm more than a rugby player."Today on The Game Changers podcast it's our absolute joy to talk to Scottish rugby star Rhona Lloyd, who shares her remarkable journey from a young girl defying stereotypes to becoming one of Scotland's fastest and most dynamic players. With 57 caps and 25 tries for her country, Rhona's story is one of resilience, self-discovery and redefining what it means to be strong. Having returned from four years playing in France, Rhona is about to represent Scotland in the Women's Rugby World Cup, before she joins Sale Sharks Rugby Club to play in Premiership Women's Rugby.In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, we explore:-- The heartbreak of missing out on Olympic selection – twice-- How Rhona has built strength and identity beyond the pitch-- The real highs and lows of life as a professional female athlete-- The remarkable bond within the Scottish women's team-- Helping girls build body confidence through sportRhona speaks with raw honesty about career setbacks and personal trauma faced by the national team, and how those moments have shaped her as both a player and a person.Thank you to Sport England who support The Game Changers Podcast with a National Lottery award.Find out more about The Game Changers podcast here: https://www.fearlesswomen.co.uk/thegamechangersHosted by Sue AnstissProduced by Sam Walker, What Goes On MediaA Fearless Women production

For this episode of 5 O' Clock Apron Podcast, Claire travels to Bristol to cook with England rugby prop Sarah Bern - just a stone's throw from Ashton Gate Stadium, where Sarah hopes to be battling it out in the Rugby World Cup quarterfinals this September. With her own flat mid-renovation, Sarah borrows a friend's beautiful (and admittedly “too swanky to be mine”) kitchen for the occasion. Between whisking eggs and grating Pecorino for Sarah's pre-match favourite, spaghetti carbonara (no cream allowed - “straight to hell” if you do, so they say), the pair dive into Sarah's remarkable rugby journey. From earning her first England cap at 18, to playing in two previous World Cups, to preparing for the gruelling demands of the next, Sarah reveals the technical finesse of life as a tighthead prop - part maximum squat, part chess match. Sarah's instagram @sarahbern3 is a paean to what it takes to be an athlete on the international stage, determination, ambition and a true love of the sport to which you are so utterly devoted to.  Carbonara doesn't take long to cook, and yet Sarah and Claire manage to fit an awful lot of chat into the time it takes to cook (and record) this classic Italian pasta dish, they discuss the reality of women's rugby, the joy and rivalry of playing alongside (and sometimes against) her partner Mackenzie Carson, the sacrifices elite sport demands, and Sarah's big ambitions beyond rugby - namely, swapping the scrum for the cockpit as a pilot. All the while, the guanciale sizzles, the pepper flows freely, and Sarah proves she's as strong in the kitchen as she is on the pitch. Learn more about your ad choices.

For over 30 years, Craig White built warriors. As one of the world's leading Strength & Conditioning coaches, he prepared the British & Irish Lions, Premiership giants, and multiple Rugby World Cup teams to crush their opponents. On the surface, it was success. Power. Dominance.What Craig was also seeing (and experiencing) was…men who looked invincible… but felt nothing inside.“I thought being a great coach was about building strong bodies. I was wrong. Strength without soul is weakness. And it's destroying men.”He noticed how men glorify toughness…suppress emotion…sacrifice soul for success. In his role of building physically strong athletes…he realised the world was full of emotionally broken men.Craig walked away from the traditional world of performance. He redefined what it means to be strong. Now, he dedicates his life to guiding men through the journey most will never dare to take…a descent into their own shadows to reclaim authentic leadership, emotional freedom, and spiritual wholeness.In this raw, no-bullsh*t conversation, Craig reveals…• The brutal truth about the “man up” culture in elite sport ~ and how it leaves men emotionally castrated.• His own reckoning…from an obsessive coach addicted to control, to a guide who now leads men into their emotional depths.• The hidden crisis of high-performing men…success on paper, but numb, disconnected, and spiritually empty inside.• Why most leadership “development” is a con….and how real transformation demands stripping away the masks of ego, status, and fear.• Craig's mission to forge a new breed of male leaders…men who lead from presence and truth, not posturing and power-plays.This is a call to the men who are ready to stop performing…and start living.Subscribe to The New Mind podcast for more uplifting and insightful conversations that explore the depths of mental health, personal growth, and inspiring stories of individuals making a difference in the world.Thank youConnect with me: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ellamccrystal Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ellamccrystalhypno   TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ella_mccrystalWeb: https://www.ellamccrystal.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EllaMcCrystalConnect with Craig: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@daretobedifferentcraigwhiteLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craig-white-performance-coach/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/craigwhitementoring/Web: https://craigwhitementoring.com/

What does it take to lead an Olympic-level team? Not on the field—but behind the scenes? In this episode, I'm joined by Matt Carroll AM, one of Australia's most accomplished sports administrators. As the former CEO of the Australian Olympic Committee from 2017 to 2025, Matt led teams through some of the most complex Olympic cycles in history—including the Tokyo Games during the pandemic, the Paris Games, and the early planning for Brisbane 2032. Matt's leadership legacy goes well beyond sport. Matt's career spans more than 30 years, across rugby, football, and sailing—including pivotal roles with Rugby World Cup 2003, the A-League, and Japan Rugby. He was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia in 2004 for his service to sport. Together, we unpack what it takes to build thriving teams in high-pressure, high-stakes environments—and how purpose, trust, and clarity shape performance at every level. In this episode, we cover: – What Olympic-level leadership looks like off the field – How to build alignment between home and away teams – Why strategic planning in “quads” (four-year cycles) keeps teams focused and accountable – How trust and mutual respect underpin high performance—even when no one's watching – What Matt learned from managing the Tokyo Games during a global pandemic – The power of stakeholder alignment across government, sponsors, sports, and community – Why every role matters—no matter how visible—and how to build a “one team” mindset One of my favourite takeaways? Matt's story about the “home and away” teams during the Tokyo Games reminded me that contribution isn't measured by visibility—it's measured by alignment to purpose. When everyone understands what we're doing, why it matters, and how we'll get there, we unlock extraordinary performance—together. If this conversation sparked ideas for how you can lead with more purpose, clarity and connection—we'd love to hear your reflections. Thanks for joining The Thriving Leaders Podcast. Keep on thriving.

Welcome back to a new very special episode of the Pick and Go podcast. A few weeks ago, Piri told the story of meeting some fellas after winning the 2011 Rugby World Cup, and we managed to track them down.So, we reunite Piri and hear from Jordon and Evan about their experience and what it was like for them to meet Piri and drink from the trophy. The Lions have sealed the series against Australia, meaning that the third test is a dead rubber, so we ask the question: What can be done to still add some drama to a dead rubber game. NPC is also kicking off this week and we look at who is looking good to take out the title this year and who might be the surprise package of the season ahead.

En dépit de quelques belles promesses, les Bleus – privés de plusieurs cadres – n'ont pas été ridicules, loin de là… mais ont cédé face à plus forts qu'eux, tout simplement.Triste fin également pour les Bleuets, défaits par des Argentins impressionnants qui n'ont clairement pas volé leur troisième place lors de cette Coupe du Monde U20.Les Lions, de leur côté, ont croqué les Wallabies lors du premier test match, avec une belle performance de notre chouchou Finn Russell !

Tournée d'été France / NZ et Coupe du Monde U20La planète rugby est pleine d'actualités à l'heure des tournées estivales mais c'est bien le sort des Bleus contre les Blacks qui intéressait le Pack de Potes ! Les U20 d'abord qui s'étaient brillamment hissés en 1/2 finale mais ont vu leurs rêves se fracasser sur le réalisme des Baby Blacks et les certitudes d'un Moses Bison dont on reparlera ! Rageant car ces Blacks-là étaient prenables… Chez les grands, le comité d'accueil de la redoutée presse kiwi promettait l'enfer à une équipe prétendue "B" en l'absence de nombreux cadres français. Mais les "bizuths" ont montré leur valeur dans un premier match très solide perdu de 4 points seulement. Las, avec un effectif revu, le deuxième match, plus large défaite de l'ère Fabien Galthié, a tourné à la correction. Il reste 80 minutes pour exister… ou rentrer en France par la toute petite porte !Bref, un épisode parfait pour tout fan du ballon ovale et de nos XV de France !Bon mercredi avec le pack !Bonne écoute!Voici l'autre podcast de TK --> L'Année Sobre, un an sans alcool ! https://podcast.ausha.co/un-peu-plus-leger/playlist/l-annee-sobre-saison-3-de-un-peu-plus-leger-podcastHébergé par Ausha.
