Mary Earps joins us for a wide-ranging conversation about life at PSG, leaving her comfort zone, the rise of women’s football, and why she is determined to make goalkeeping cool.

The England goalkeeper reflects on the defining moments that changed her career, from being dropped by England in 2019 to winning Euro 2022, the World Cup Golden Glove and BBC Sports Personality of the Year.

She also talks about social media, role modelling, the responsibility of visibility, her future beyond PSG, and why young girls need proper access to goalkeeping.

Mary discusses the courage it took to move to PSG, not because she had to, but because she felt she needed to keep growing. She talks openly about Manchester United feeling like home, the uncertainty of short contracts in women’s football, and the emotional complexity of deciding what comes next.

A major theme is visibility. Mary explains how Euro 2022, the World Cup and Sports Personality of the Year changed the conversation around women’s football, but also around goalkeeping specifically. Her mission now is to make the position feel respected, desirable and accessible for young girls.

She also speaks honestly about the pressure of being seen as a role model, the dangers of social media, and the importance of showing up authentically rather than presenting only the polished version of success.

This episode of Performance People explores the science behind movement, recovery, and why small, consistent changes can completely alter how your body functions.

Dr Cuan Wayne Coetzee is a chiropractor and movement expert focused on helping people overcome chronic pain through movement, neuroscience, and behavioural change. His work centres on neural re-education (NRE) using simple, novel movement patterns to retrain the brain and restore function. He is also the author of, Why Movement is Medicine.

Dr Cuan Wayne Coetzee breaks down:

* Why movement is medicine

* How novelty rewires the brain in chronic pain

* The truth about posture (and why “perfect” posture doesn’t exist)

* Why recovery is the most overlooked performance lever

* How to build simple daily habits that actually stick

TAKEAWAYS

* There is no single “bad posture”, only positions you can’t move out of

* Chronic pain is often a brain problem as much as a body problem

* Small, consistent inputs beat extreme interventions

* Recovery isn’t passive - it’s a system you have to build

* Most people don’t need more information, they need simpler habits

Emily Frazer is the CEO of Matchroom Multi-Sport, and trying to do with 9 ball pool what her bosses did with darts and snooker. In a candid conversation with Georgie, Emily shares what she has learned from working alongside Barry and Eddie Hearn, how Matchroom’s Netflix series changed perceptions of the business and why character, storytelling and relentless standards matter if you want to build a sport that cuts through.

She also tells brilliant behind-the-scenes stories about both Hearns. Emily describes Barry Hearn as a father figure, a motivator and a huge presence inside Matchroom, while also explaining the belief he showed in her as she took on major responsibility at a young age. She reflects too on Eddie Hearn’s passion, composure and ability to handle pressure, including the moment he tuned in and saw the scale fandom that Matchroom had unlocked in Vietnam.

There is also a standout Judd Trump tale, as Emily recalls convincing the snooker star to play in one of Matchroom’s pool events after he joked that the sport would be easy. After getting a sharp lesson from a pool pro, Trump found himself snookered, exactly the kind of moment Emily believes helps change perceptions of the sport.

The episode also covers:

* how Emily has built Matchroom Multi-Sport from the “ugly sister” of the business into a serious growth area

* why Barry Hearn’s advice and backing have been so important

* what Eddie Hearn has taught her about passion and leadership

* how Netflix opened doors commercially

* why Judd Trump’s appearance mattered

* the challenge of creating stars in modern sport

* the long-term ambition for nine-ball pool and Matchroom Multi-Sport

This is all about compelling sport, leadership, ambition, underdog energy and building something people once overlooked into something impossible to ignore.
