Girls Talk.

You're listening to the Girls Talk podcast, hosted by me, Adjoa-Boha and powered by our friends at Nike.

This is where girls come together to talk, share, listen and take control.

So listen to us every week for your source of fierce chat. And don't

forget to subscribe. Hi everyone. Welcome to the Girls Talk podcast. We have an incredible

lineup of guests this week to talk about such

an important topic, but one that gets brushed under the carpet all the time. And that's the

relationship between the female body and sport. From period taboos and girls dropping out of sport

when they get their period to female athletes trying to understand their body so they

can perform better, all the way to how motherhood and menopause impacts a woman's relationship

with sport. We're here to discuss how we can best work with the natural rhythm of our body

and benefit from the positive effects of sport. Both of my guests are experts in this field.

We have Dr. Stacey Sims, who is an expert in female athlete physiology and a nutrition

scientist, specialising in sex differences. In her amazing TED talk, women are not small men,

Stacey reveals how the female body responds differently to

nutrition and training to her males. Her research comes from being both an academic and from the

athletic arena. And we also have Jocelyn Thompson Rule, who wears a few different hats in the

fitness industry. She's a Nike global

master trainer, sports therapist and coaching mentor, and has her own podcast called Fitness Unfiltered.

Stacey Jocelyn, I'm beyond excited to welcome you to the Girls Talk podcast.

Girls Talk podcast. Girls Talk.

So thank you so much both of you for taking the time to be on the Girls Talk podcast.
