Erin Mcleod is not only a gold medal winner with the Canada Women's soccer team, but she is also a global changemaker. Known for using her platform to spread awareness about the inequalities in sport and advocating for changes to benefit all athletes regardless of their gender, ethnicity or social class, Erin is one of those people who leaves a lasting impression on everyone she meets.
On this episode Erin discusses her early involvement with various sports, the challenges she faced as a female athlete and having to accept less than her male counterparts, being an impact player and learning how to do her part for the team from the bench at times, what the word queer means to her, her role with local Wanderers club partner Halifax City Soccer Club and her journey that has led her to be included in the all time XI for the Canada Women's National team.
