Wendy Lumby's journey into active living began almost as soon as she could walk. Adopted as a baby in Saskatchewan, she found her passion early: skiing just under 18 months old, excelling in figure skating, alpine ski racing, and soccer, always drawn to speed, movement, and competition. That drive carried her all the way to the Canadian National Alpine Ski Team, World Championships, and the 1988 Winter Olympics, where she made history as the only Aboriginal person to ever compete in Olympic alpine skiing or even at the International level period. Wendy has been named in the Top 100 Canadian Professionals as owner of Faces of Wendy, a Calgary Based Talent Agency, and has become a world-class coach, trailblazer, mentor, and advocate for women in sport. She has won a Canadian Woman Of Inspiration Award, a Canadian Indigenous Leader Award, and four Alberta Achievement awards. Wendy continues to live the active aging mindset through her true love, soccer, playing four to five days a week, often multiple games a day.Send a text

Megan discusses producing Mikaela's podcast "What's the Point," the powerful Mik 100 campaign that raised nearly $500,000 for ski access, and how she's learned to balance remote work with traveling to World Cup races with babies in tow. Her authentic approach to storytelling and her commitment to making the sport more accessible shine through as she reflects on memorable moments like Beijing 2022 and the importance of mental health in athletics.Notable Quotes:"I wouldn't have it any other way.

Netball NZ has had a turbulent time of late, with leadership failures resulting in CEO Jennie Wyllie and a number of board members leaving their roles. As the fallout settles, the question is now being asked what damage this has done to netball in the wider New Zealand sporting landscape – especially now that there's other options for young girls looking to enter sport. Women in Sport Aotearoa CEO Susan Sawbridge told Piney that despite the turbulence, she doesn't think netball's importance, especially at a grassroots level, is diminishing to a point of concern. She says it continues to be one of the most accessible sports for girls and young women across the country, and there's a huge strength in the sport.

To celebrate National Girls and Women in Sports Month, host Greg Glynn, founder & CEO of Pliable interviewed Christine Yu, an award-winning journalist and author of "Up to Speed: The Groundbreaking Science of Women Athletes." They discussed Christine's background in journalism and her passion for women's sports, which led her to write the book to address the gender gap in sports science research.   Christine shared insights on the myths and misconceptions about women's athletic capabilities, the importance of proper nutrition and strength training for young female athletes, and the high rate of ACL injuries among female athletes. They also touched on the historical and societal factors that have contributed to the underrepresentation of women in sports science studies. Greg and Christine discussed actionable tips for young girls and parents to support bone health and prevent injuries. The episode concluded with information on where listeners can find Christine's book. Journey to Sports Science Advocacy Christine discussed her journey from a nonprofit background to becoming an award-winning journalist, highlighting her passion for writing and storytelling. She explained how her interest in sports evolved from personal experience and her realization of the gender data gap in sports science research, which inspired her to write a book on the topic. Christine shared surprising findings, such as historical women scientists' efforts to debunk myths about women's physical capabilities being dismissed, and emphasized the importance of addressing these misconceptions to support girls and women in sports. Nutrition for Female Adolescent Athletes Christine discussed the historical and ongoing gender-based limitations in sports, particularly for women, and emphasized the importance of proper nutrition for adolescent athletes to support bone health and overall development. She highlighted the need for regular meals and snacks, especially before and after practices, and recommended consulting a sports dietitian for personalized advice. Christine also stressed the significance of maintaining a healthy menstrual cycle as an indicator of hormonal balance and its long-term implications for bone health. Women's Sports Injury Prevention Strategies Christine and Greg discussed women's sports, focusing on injury prevention and body type considerations. Christine emphasized the importance of strength training and neuromuscular training for reducing ACL injury risk in female athletes, particularly during adolescence. She highlighted that while biological factors like pelvic width are often cited as risk factors, environmental and societal factors, such as lack of access to strength training, also play a significant role. Greg and Christine agreed on the need to empower young female athletes to take control of their injury prevention through accessible training programs.   Resources Buy the book https://www.christinemyu.com/ Christine's social media https://www.instagram.com/cyu888/ Pliable Marketing website https://pliablemarketing.com/ Mission E50 initiative to increase the popularity of women's sports https://pliablemarketing.com/e50      

In this episode, we dive deep into the systemic barriers that women face (and still face!) in sports coaching with Dr. Nicole LaVoi, a leading expert in gender equity in sports.Despite the surge in female athlete participation since Title IX, why have women's coaching numbers significantly declined? And Dr. LaVoi shares actionable strategies for women navigating male-dominated environments.Key Takeaways• Historical Context: When Title IX passed in 1972, over 90% of women's teams had female coaches, but that number has dropped to around 45% today.• Dual Career Pathway: Men often have the advantage of coaching both men's and women's teams, while opportunities for women to coach men's teams are scarce.• Systemic Barriers: Understand the societal, organizational, and interpersonal barriers that impact women in coaching, including the "likability-competence double bind."• Supportive Networks: Build and leverage networks with like-minded women to foster collaboration and mentorship in challenging environments.• Self-Advocacy: Remember that nobody cares about your career more than you; advocate for yourself and your work. Dr. Nicole LaVoi is the Director of the Tucker Center for Research on Girls and Women in Sport at the University of Minnesota. She is a prominent researcher focusing on gender equity in sports leadership and has dedicated her career to addressing the barriers women face in athletics.Resources Mentioned• Tucker Center for Research on Girls & Women in Sport • CoachingHer.com - Free resources for coaching girls effectively• BodyConfidentSport.com - Tools for creating body-positive environments in sports If you found value in today's episode, please subscribe to our podcast, leave a review, and share this conversation with someone who needs to hear it.

In this conversation recorded at the 2025 Capital Irish Film Festival, host Martin Nutty sits down with two trailblazing Irish filmmakers who are pushing boundaries in their respective genres.Aislinn Clarke discusses her groundbreaking Irish-language horror film Fréwaka, exploring how her childhood love of horror (she saw The Exorcist at seven!) and her father's commitment to preserving the Irish language converged into a unique cinematic vision. Clarke reveals the gift of discovering the perfect location for the film in Ravensdale Forest, and why horror fans have always embraced foreign language films. With international distribution through IFC Shutter and more projects in development, Clarke is proving that Irish-language cinema can compete on the global stage.Tanya Doyle takes us behind the scenes of her five-year documentary odyssey Eat, Sleep, Cheer, and Repeat, which follows Ireland's cheerleading team to the World Championships in Florida. What began as a search for a film about women in sport became an intimate portrait of athleticism, identity, and belonging. Doyle shares the moment she knew cheerleading was the story—watching a young competitor vomit from sheer physical exertion—and defends the sport against anyone who questions its legitimacy. With 160 hours of footage to wrangle and characters lost to COVID shutdowns, the film became a testament to resilience both on and off screen.Both filmmakers discuss the challenges of funding independent cinema in Ireland, the intimacy of the editing process, and the importance of creating spaces where diverse stories can flourish. Whether you're interested in horror, documentary filmmaking, Irish language revival, or women in sport, this episode offers rich insights into the craft and passion of contemporary Irish cinema.LinksFilmsPreview: Eat, Sleep, Cheer, and RepeatPreview: FréwakaAislinn ClarkeIMDBInstagramTanya DoyleIMDBLinkedInGriffith CollegeSolas NuaCapital Irish Film FestivalIrish Stew LinksWebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedInMedia Partner: IrishCentralEpisode Details: Season 8, Episode 7; Total Episode Count: 148

In this episode Nicole talks with Jill Brabec, President of Nordic Combined USA, about one of the Olympics' oldest sports that still excludes women. Nordic Combined blends ski jumping and cross country skiing, requiring athletes to launch themselves down steep terrain at maximum speed, fly the length of a football field, then immediately race 5K on skinny skis. Despite being in the Olympics since 1924, women were denied entry to the 2026 Games. Jill, a Steamboat Springs ski mom turned advocate, formed a nonprofit with other parents to save the US team when funding collapsed. Her daughter Alexa trains in Norway but can't compete in the Olympics due to gender restrictions. The IOC will decide about 2030 inclusion this spring after reviewing 2026 data. Jill draws parallels to women's ski jumping, which faced identical arguments 15 years ago and is now successful. She encourages fans to watch men's Nordic Combined February 11, 17, and 19 to show viewership demand, sign the petition at nordiccombineusa.org, and follow athletes on social media. The sport features 17 World Cups for women who jump the same hills as men and train at Lake Placid, Park City, and Steamboat Springs.
