The life unbalanced with Ghislaine Landry




Player's Own Voice show

Summary: Some early adversity is clearly a good thing, at least when it comes to Rugby. Ghislaine Landry, who is now the leading point scorer in world series history, was told time and again that she would never play international rugby. 'Too small', the experts told her. So much for the experts. Union and Sevens, Landry is one of the world's most dominant forces on the rugby pitch, compact stature and all. In this week's episode, Ghislaine joins host Anastasia Bucsis to celebrate the rugby player's victories and explores the idea that in sport, nothing comes for free. Beyond the constant demands of training and practise and international competition, how is a member of a centralised team even supposed to see family, let along achieve that mythical life balance? For Landry, it's about finding room for two loves: love of sport and love of family. And the silver lining? Time off is that much sweeter when there is so little of it in a regular season.
