In this episode of In Her Corner, we talk to Katee about what it takes to thrive when breaking the mould in being the first, why the world of sports and social media need to come together to defend women working in sport against sexist attacks for simply speaking their minds and the importance of giving girls and women opportunities to play and benefit from sport.
