She emphasises the influence of social media on body perceptions and the importance of education around its dangers. Amy Truesdale, an Paralympic taekwondo champion, speaks about her confidence in competing in a male-dominated sport despite her disability. She highlights the necessity of focusing on performance over aesthetics, celebrating individual differences, and rejecting societal pressures. Kate Dale, campaign director of "This Girl Can" at Sport England, brings her expertise in promoting women's participation in sports, discussing the need for positive reinforcement and conscious behaviour around diet culture and appearance.

Candida Louis, a 28-year-old adventurer from Hubli, South India, embodies the spirit of wanderlust and the pursuit of freedom through motorcycle riding. From a young age, she shared unforgettable rides with her father, sparking a passion that led her to become a motorcyclist herself. Over the past 12 years, she has transitioned from a pillion rider to the one in the front seat, fully embracing the thrill of the open road. A birthday gift of her first motorcycle marked the beginning of an incredible journey that fuelled her dreams of riding around the world. After spending five years working at Oracle and Infosys, she found herself disillusioned with the daily commute and long hours. Looking out of her office window, she envisioned a life on the open road, fuelling her determination to break free. In 2015, she took a three-month sabbatical to ride through North and South India, and the experience solidified her desire to pursue a life of adventure. Following her journey, she resigned from her desk job and spent four months travelling, embracing the confidence and freedom that riding provided. In this conversation, Candida emphasised the importance of following one's passions, stating, “If you love something, if you're very passionate about it, at least try to take that first step... Just take that risk, and it will prove to be the right thing.” This philosophy drives her as she continues to chase her dreams, having recently crossed multiple countries on her motorcycle in a remarkable eight-month journey from India to Australia. With each adventure, she inspires others to embrace their dreams, take risks, and discover the incredible experiences that life has to offer. Candida's journey is not just about riding motorcycles; it's about finding one's true self and the freedom that comes with stepping outside one's comfort zone. As she explores the world on her bike, she encourages others to do the same, reminding them that the journey begins with that first courageous step. *** This episode was recorded live at the Armchair Adventure Festival 25th - 28th July 2024.

MPs from the privileges committee have said Boris Johnson may have misled Parliament multiple times over Partygate - but the former PM insists he will be vindicated by their report. Meanwhile, Tory MPs say they're angry that Sue Gray, who lead the Partygate probe, has been offered a job by the Labour party. Alex Forsyth explains why these two stories matter. Nicola Adams, two-time Olympic boxing champion and backer of the ‘This Girl Can' campaign, joins Adam and the BBC's Natalie Pirks to examine why millions of women are turned off sport.

Safety fears are preventing women from enjoying sport and three in ten have been harassed whilst exercising. There is an ‘enjoyment gap' between men and women driven by safety concerns when it comes to running after dark. Research by This Girl Can also found one in five are concerned by sexual harassment when working out. Newstalk's Henry McKean met with both men and women to get their response…

This GIrl Can with Jordyn Cambridge

It was always going to happen wasn't it. After two cracking semi-finals, the stage is set. The two outstanding Euro 2022 teams face each other this Sunday at Wembley. On Tuesday, Sarina's Lionesses turned in the most convincing semi-final performance of any England team EVER. Not to be outdone, a clinical Germany brought some rare excitement to Milton Keynes by beating France 2-1 inspired by Alex Popp. We dive into reviews of both semi-finals, share our experiences of being at both games and, with some trepidation, preview the final!! Proudly sponsored by FotMob

Those quarter-finals were pretty eventful weren't they. We react to all the excitement and nerves of England v Spain, the heroics of France v Netherlands, the missed chances of Germany v Austria and the atmosphere of Sweden v Belgium (the game wasn't much to write home about!).

The group stages have come to a close and Sarina and the Lionesses are 'walking on the sunshine' after a perfect end to Group A and (hopefully) the end to the recent heatwave! So far, England and Germany have impressed, Austria and Belgium have surprised and will the real Spain, Sweden, Netherlands and France show themselves? We talk through each of the Quarter-Final ties, discuss whether we'll see any changes to the England first XI (no) and who is going to progress to the Semis? Proudly sponsored by @FotMob

I'm so thrilled to introduce Sarah Blues to you. I discovered her on Instagram after I had shared details about being part of Sport England's This Girl Can campaign and Sarah commented on my post. I was struck immediately by her commitment to support other women who wanted to enjoy paddleboarding safely and comfortably and her #PaddleKitHerWay campaign. Sarah completely embodies one of the themes of the podcast that 'we rise by lifting others.'Sarah lives in Weymouth, Dorset by the beach. She grew up there and her family life revolved around the sea and the community. Her father was second coxswain on the RNLI Lifeboat and Sarah gig rowed and swam in the sea. She moved away from Weymouth for university and lived in Hertfordshire for 10 years. Her job is in marketing and communications. She returned to Weymouth just before the 1st lockdown in the UK and took up SUP in summer.She immediately fell in love with SUP and everything it gave her in terms of confidence and a place to unwind. She first thought it would be a summer sport but loved it so much that she wanted to continue in the winter months. However, as it got colder, she found it increasingly difficult to find kit that would keep her warm and safe.  Most brands only go up to a UK size 16 in women's ranges and as a UK 18 and around 6ft tall, she felt very excluded from the leading brands. They simply didn't have the range she was looking for. Sarah realised that if she was finding it difficult to get the right kit, then other women would be facing the same problem, but no one was talking about it. She set up her Instagram account @plussizepaddler to share her own story and encourage other women to share theirs. She realised that kit sizing and design was a barrier facing many women who wanted to continue to paddle in the winter months but felt they couldn't. Rather than give up, Sarah set herself a mission to campaign for kit that fits and works for women over size 16. She shares inspiring stories and is spreading her message in the media. She was recently featured on British Canoeing's channels. In this wonderful conversation, Sarah also shares how she has learned to enjoy exercise for herself and as a way to look after her body, noticing how she has improved her skills and her achievements. Her confidence has grown and she feels braver.  Sarah also talks about the impact joining a supportive club - the Dorset Race Club - has had on her life since returning to Weymouth, bringing her friendship and focus. This has inspired her to set herself a huge LEJOG SUP challenge in 2021 since recording our episode together. You can find out more on her Instagram page @plussizepaddler and her website www.plussizepaddler.com.109 Watersports is https://www.facebook.com/109watersportsDorset SUP Community https://www.facebook.com/groups/777479452629450/McConks https://mcconks.com/Thank you for listening!

In episode 7 of the Women's Running podcast, editor Esther Newman chats to Jemma Lewis, better known as This Girl Can Run Far. She's a runner we can all relate to, having taken up running as an antidote to gym-going after the birth of her daughter. But the thing is with Jemma is that a) she's really *really* good, and b) she's incredibly down to earth. Here, she talked to me about taking on her first ultra with the proceeds of a last-minute modelling gig with This Girl Can, and how Joe Wicks has made her discover the benefits of strength training. She also talks passionately about how supportive the women's running community is, and equally passionately about her love of Dairylea Dunkers. And if you want insider tips, she explains here how to stop your hydration pack sloshing about on your back, making you need a wee. Essential running advice right here.
