Speaker 1: Hi. My name's Narrowie. I've been a sports journalist for
Speaker 1: around fifteen years now, and I love telling stories when
Speaker 1: people are ready to share them. I think we can
Speaker 1: too often focus on the negatives instead of celebrating what
Speaker 1: people have overcome in life. Sports people are human. I
Speaker 1: find when you give them a safe space, they often
Speaker 1: let their guard down and they have some pretty important
Speaker 1: things to say. Compelling stories of people acknowledging they weren't coping,
Speaker 1: trying to get over the feeling of failure. Some are
Speaker 1: coming to terms with tragedy. These are athletes trying to
Speaker 1: embrace why they are the way they are, and their
Speaker 1: stories can be pretty uplifting. So that's why I decided
Speaker 1: to start a podcast. It's called Ordinary Only Speaking. A
Speaker 1: lot of these guys are speaking up because they want
Speaker 1: to help other people, whether it's adults who have gone
Speaker 1: through something or kids who need a little help. A
Speaker 1: mate recently told me, you need a few setbacks, so
Speaker 1: you've got a story. Well, I want to try and
Speaker 1: help people embrace the setbacks. Even if you're not a
Speaker 1: sports fan, I really hope you get something out of it.
Speaker 1: My podcast, Ordinarily Speaking, is about celebrating resilience in sport.
