Summary
This one is very different, and hugely important. Talking periods, fertility and challenges for female athletes is tricky, especially with two men in the room but Emma O'Byrne displays a maturity way beyond her 26 years to engage in this powerful conversation. Emma has Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), most managers in womens Gaelic games are men. So, are we in tune to have these conversations? Honest, fair and insightful, this podcast will illuminate the challenges our female athletes must overcome and hopefully, we can bring a little learning along the way. There's much more, Emma transferred to St Vincent's and explains why and there's also love. Conor Burke, Dublin hurler and by the sounds of it, a pretty decent bloke too. A lovely podcast.
