About this listen
Kadie Philp is joined by Olympian and trailblazer Haley Daniels to share her fight for gender equity in women's canoeing—both in getting it recognized as an Olympic sport and in securing equal funding and representation.
From facing blatant discrimination to proving that women’s sports are just as marketable and competitive, Haley's journey is a reflection of how equity in sports mirrors broader societal struggles and why true change requires everyone’s support.
They unpack the systemic challenges female athletes still face today, including the persistent gender pay gap, lack of sponsorship, and media biases.
Haley also highlights the progress being made—like the rise of sold-out women’s sporting events and increased allyship from male athletes.

5:05 The financial fight: Funding disparities in women’s sports
10:03 The media bias: How female athletes are still judged on appearance
