This is an extract from episode 73 featuring the end of my conversation with Amy Steel, former Australian netballer, global EcoAthletes and Sports Environment Alliance Ambassador, and Senior Manager | Sustainability and Climate Change at Deloitte; and Lily Brazel, now former Australian hockey player, global EcoAthletes Ambassador, and founder of Stature Clothing (including its podcast The State of Us).

We pick up here with Lily’s bombshell, letting go of her lifelong dream of playing for the Hockeyroos at the Olympics. And we follow the threads through navigating change and our deeper purpose, empowering sports people to step up on what matters most, and the stories that connect us to our genuinely ‘super’ human nature.

Title slide: Amy Steel and Lily Brazil playing their new roles for the bigger team (supplied).

You can hear the rest of our conversation in the main episode, ‘The Biggest Sports Story: Climate, business and a sense of ultimate success’.

You’ll find a series of photos on that web page too.
