The Balance Podcast episode featuring EverybodyMoves: Gender part one. Graphic illustration of two girls wrapping their arms around one another. Their outer arms hold a flag that says: Girl Power.

“Often programs are not designed to meet the needs of girls and women; they are underrepresented as participants and leaders.” Terri Temelini, Program Manager at Canadian Women and Sport, explores gender inequities within sport and recreation with an intersectional lens.

Terri breaks down the idea of belonging, confidence, and “perfection” in sports, and how this impacts girls and people identifying as non-binary.
