Both embody a spirit of empowerment and together they tackle big challenges like homelessness and mental health in sport, blending innovation and evidence-based approaches to drive lasting change.
Known for their generosity in leadership and commitment to enabling others, Danielle and Isabelle don’t just challenge the status quo – they redefine it. In a refreshingly candid conversation, they open up about ‘imposter’ thoughts, balancing career with personal life, and how their backgrounds shape their perspectives.
