Women’s football and the creative industries might seem worlds apart, but for young people trying to break in, the challenges are surprisingly similar: limited access, narrownetworks, and few visible role models.
In this episode, former England footballer and founder of The Rachel Yankey Foundation, Rachel Yankey, joins Luca Hussain, Head of Programmes and Impact at Creative Mentor Network, and Grayling's Senior Counsel Tanya Joseph for an honest conversation about confidence, representation, and creating opportunity where it’s too often out of reach.
They share stories from grassroots football and the creative sector, exploring how visibility, mentorship, and supportive networks can make all the difference.
