About this listen

 What if being a mother was seen as a career risk? What if talking about fertility was still considered taboo in 2025? And what if female footballers had to choose between the game they love and the family they dream of? In this powerful Q&A episode, Rach and Millie dive deep into one of the most important and under-discussed topics in women’s football: motherhood, fertility, and the right to choose without fear. From Hannah Blundell’s inspiring return to Manchester United after giving birth, to the need for clubs to support fertility education, smear tests, and open conversations.
