All Episodes

May 6, 2021 • 96 mins

In this episode we talk about how Honey Hireme-Smiler fared at the Putaruru athletics championships as a teenager, some of the toughest times from her childhood – and how she turned a corner, why she only discovered her legal name as a teenager, the sudden loss of her mum and the lessons in strength she received from her final weeks, why she peaked as an athlete in her mid 30s and the time she skipped from a Sevens World Cup to a Rugby League World Cup in a week.
