Episode 17 (S7). Breaking Barriers in Women’s Football (feat. Kerry Davis)

In this episode, we’re honoured to be joined by a true trailblazer: Kerry Davis, the first Black woman to represent England at football. Kerry shares her incredible journey through the game, from her early days breaking barriers to representing her country on the international stage. With honesty and humility, she reflects on the challenges she faced as a Black woman in women's football, the progress made since then, and the work that’s still left to do. We talk about identity, representation, and the fight for equity in football. Kerry’s insights offer a deep, personal perspective on resilience, legacy, and what it means to lead by example in spaces where you’ve had to carve your own path. This conversation isn’t just about football—it’s about visibility, voice, and valuing those who came before. It’s a reminder that history-making often starts with someone's determination and simply refusing to sit on the sidelines.
