Description

Olympic gold medallist. Trailblazer. Proud Māori woman. And a human being who has walked through both incredible highs and some of life’s toughest moments.


In this episode, Gayle Broughton opens up in a way she rarely has before - sharing the private battles behind the public success. We talk about her rise to the top of world rugby, the pressure and expectation that came with it, her transition into rugby league, and the moment she hit rock bottom.


Gayle speaks honestly about identity, mental health, and the courage it takes to admit you’re struggling, even when the world thinks you’re unstoppable. This conversation is about owning your truth, sitting with your pain, and finding the strength to rebuild from the inside out.


If you’ve ever felt lost, misunderstood, or like you had to hold it all together - this episode will mean something to you.
