S1E16: IU college rugby changed Jordyn’s life! On mental health, accountability, & the Kinsey scale

Episode 16 features Jordyn, who found rugby in college after choosing not to play in high school from the fear of injury. Sus & Jordyn look into her early athletic endeavors & how Jordyn built resilience through them (think being the only girl on a youth wrestling team) & then get into how she found herself at rugby practice sophomore year. Jordyn very bravely shares about her struggles with mental health & how rugby impacted her, as well as, how the rugby team became a safe place for her to embrace part of her sexuality which had previously been uncovered. They also talk the Kinsey Scale, tackling, switching from forwards to backs, & how hard it is to leave the game, before Jordyn gives Two Truths & A Lie a go. Find out if Sus gets it right this time by listening to the end!

As always, WITH YOU is looking for more guests to come on the show! If you’ve ever been part of a womxn’s rugby program, I want to hear from you 🙃 Find a participation survey on our website About page or email Sus for more info.
