the [female] athlete project

Like many Winter athletes, Jackie Narracott fell in love with winter sports after watching the movie Cool Runnings. But unlike most other athletes, Jackie grew up in Queensland, Australia - known as the Sunshine State. So it was a chance encounter with the Australian bobsled team that led Jackie on her journey to discovering skeleton racing. A sport she describes as going down an icy waterslide with no brakes. And let’s just say it was love at first slide. This week Chloe sits down with Jackie Narracott, the first Australian to earn an Olympic medal in skeleton racing. After recently announcing her retirement, Jackie chats with Chloe about the highs, lows and slippery slopes of her career, including an almost career-ending concussion. Jackie also shares what it was like to finally achieve her life-long dream of becoming an Olympian, not once, but twice.

Growing up Molly Taylor’s dream was to represent Australia in equestrian at the Olympics.  But oh how that all changed when she went to get her drivers' licence at age 16. Her parents encouraged her to do a defensive driving course, and once she got in that car, the rest was history. It was that moment that propelled Molly into motorsport, becoming the first and only woman to have won the Australian Rally Car Championship. She currently races in the International off-road racing series, Extreme E. This week, Chloe sits down with Molly Taylor to chat about paving the way for more women to get involved in Motorsport from a younger age. And what better time to catch up with Molly than a week out from the Race of Champions in Sydney on March 7 & 8 2025. We hope you enjoy this episode and if you’re driving while listening, maybe don’t channel your inner Molly on your morning commute.
