Life From The Sidelines
As wives to professional athletes and athletes in our own right, we bring a unique perspective to the world of sports. We understand the sacrifices, the highs and lows and the hard work that goes into being an athlete. But we also know the importance of humanizing athletes and showing their personal side beyond statistics and scores.
With our feminine approach to sports and sports commentating, we aim to bring a fresh perspective to the industry. We believe that there is a need for more diverse voices in sports media and we are here to fill that void. We want to share our own personal experiences as athletes and partners to one, and also shed light and insights on the journeys of others who navigate this space.
Through our writing and commentary, we hope to inspire and empower others to pursue their dreams, both on and off the field. We want to show that athletes are more than just their performance and that their personal stories and struggles make them relatable and HUMAN.

EP 4 Helen Tekori: Near death experiences, building community and life after rugby
On this Episode of LFTS we talk with Madame Helen Tekori. The Queen of community building, the life of the party and everyones favourite person here in Toulouse, France. We talk about everything from working in a factory in NZ to living the WAG life in the South of France. Madame Tekori is a safe haven for a lot of us women here in France, she's the first person we meet, the first person we get drunk with and just the ultimate socialite! We are so grateful for women like Helen and a lot of us families would not have lasted here in France without the Tekori family.
