This week we're joined by Elaine Jackson - UK powerlifting champion, European gold medalist, Commonwealth silver medalist, and all-around powerhouse!

Elaine first stepped into competition at 51 after being introduced to weight training during her recovery from cancer. Now she's not only dominating the platform but also shaping the sport as a qualified referee and competition commentator.

Elaine shares her incredible journey - which includes being a fashion designer, touring with Pavarotti, having singles in the UK charts, all before becoming a powerlifting champion.

We talk about the power of visualisation, why feeling strong is infectious, and how Elaine uses her "three kings" to stay at the top of her game.

Hosts Lorne Magill and Nora Beqaj are best friends and co-founders of Gals FC, the football club that exists to give gals a good time. Find out more about our club and follow our journey to becoming the household name for non-competitive football on Instagram @gals.fc

We are looking for vibe protectors to help us start new games across the UK. If you're interested, get in touch via our website.

And check out our new merch - we're not just hawking hats - we've got socks, scarves, tops and candles.

Today we have Yvonne Harrison on the podcast, the CEO of Women in Football, an influential organisation with over 12,000 members that champions gender equality at every level and delivers training, mentoring, and leadership programs.

We've been dying to get Yvonne on the Dream Teams podcast since we launched and were so happy she agreed to come on!

We chat about building trust while driving change, the power of asking good questions, and why being unapologetically yourself is the ultimate game-changer.

Plus, Yvonne shares her dream team including football royalty, a tennis legend , and the Welsh professor who's rewriting the rules at UEFA.

We also discuss the Women in Football Be Inspired Conference (Lorne came away genuinely inspired), the shift from calling out to influencing change, and why Yvonne's mantra is "be better, do better."

We are so excited to finally welcome Sue Anstiss to the podcast!

Sue is a powerhouse in women’s sport – author of Game On, host of The Game Changers Podcast, co-founder of The Women’s Sport Collective, and a relentless champion for equity in sport.

In this episode, Sue shares her inspiring journey from setting up her first PR agency in her spare bedroom, to interviewing over 200 trailblazing women in sport, to creating communities that drive lasting change.

We also chat about everything from netball and rugby to what it really means to follow joy in sport. Sue gets the Gals FC vibe! She reflects on how sport doesn’t always have to be about competition or performance, but about movement, community, and connection.

This one is packed with wisdom, warmth, and inspiration. We came away buzzing and ready to sign up to watch a Netball Super League match!
