Why Being Strong Almost Broke Me… | Jo Prins S1E1

She's Gutsy

Show Notes

So many women tie their worth to one thing… their job, their sport, their body, their performance, their relationship, their success. But what happens when that thing is taken away… or no longer serves you? In this episode, Jo Prins shares her journey of walking away from netball to protect her mental health, and how she rebuilt her identity, confidence, and purpose outside of sport. This is a conversation about pressure, grief, losing a loved one and learning that you are more than what you do & that sometimes all needs to be broken down to be rebuilt. If you’ve ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or like your worth is tied to what you achieve… this episode is for you.
