On today’s Sport for Business Daily Podcast, we share some of the energy from the Sport for Business Women in Sport conference and turn the mic to two athletes who show why listening changes outcomes.
Linda talks rugby, nursing, and a Master’s that opens new doors; Laura charts a late start in racing and a clear route to Le Mans with honest talk on funding and grit.
• Athlete voice as the driver of real change
• Linda’s rugby journey, nursing background, and sports management masters
• Stepping away from a central contract to grow leadership and longevity
• Laura’s Radical racing path and Le Mans ambition
• Sponsorship realities and the bring-your-partners model
• Balancing full-time STEM work with training and sim racing
• Mental skills, safety, and performance under pressure
• Trinity Access, role models, and opening doors for young people
• Calls for support that meet actual athlete needs
If there’s anybody out there who wants to get somebody to inspire your workforce or your teams by telling their story, then Linda Djougang will do it brilliantly. And if you feel as though you’re ready to dive in and give a helping hand, you never know that Laura O’Connell with that sense of enthusiasm and drive that you want to support, and you can reach out to her through Sport for Business as well.
