This week, I’m joined by NRLW star Travis Paige, whose journey from the lively English rugby league scene to the Parramatta Eels in Australia is as bold as her personality. Known for her outgoing energy and fierce competitiveness, Travis opens up about what it’s like being the life of the party—until she hits that wall.

We talk about:

• The duality of being an extrovert who sometimes just needs to shut off

• Her transition from England to Australia and the culture shock in both rugby and life

• How her intense drive to win doesn’t stop at the field—yes, even putt-putt golf with her partner gets serious

Travis is funny, honest, and unapologetically herself. This is one for anyone who thrives in social chaos but sometimes needs a breather.

🎧 Tune in for laughs, insights, and a peek behind the tough athlete exterior.
