Renae Ingles knows what it takes to win at the highest level. But it was the setbacks that shaped her most.
This week, Renae joins Trent to unpack a career that included premierships, Commonwealth Games and World Cup gold, and the setback she believes changed everything.
After winning silver for Australia, Renae was dropped from the 2011 World Championship team. It forced her to get uncomfortable, change environments and rebuild, eventually fighting her way back to win the gold medals she'd spent years chasing.
But this conversation goes far beyond sport.
Renae opens up about perfectionism, people-pleasing, and attaching her identity to achievement; becoming a mum and returning to elite sport; raising her son Jacob following his autism diagnosis; building a marriage and family alongside Joe Ingles' NBA career; and the challenge of discovering who you are when the thing that defined you for so long is gone.
It's a conversation about success, setbacks, family, identity and learning that the journey might matter more than the medal.
