In this episode of The Wellness Puzzle Podcast, I speak with my great friend and netball royalty, Lisa Alexander, about the power of backing yourself and taking responsibility for your own growth.
As head coach of the Australian Diamonds from 2011 to 2020, Lisa led the national team through an extraordinary era, including gold at the 2014 Commonwealth Games and victory at the 2015 Netball World Cup. Across 102 Test matches, she became the most capped Diamonds head coach in history.

Can you hold yourself accountable while also giving yourself the belief and support you would offer someone you care about?
Whether you’re pursuing a personal goal, leading a team or navigating a new chapter, Lisa’s perspective offers a powerful invitation to recognise your potential and back yourself to grow.
