There's certainly something about hurdler Liz Clay. In the last year, Liz has become the second-fastest Australian hurdler of all time, had an undefeated domestic season and finished in the Olympic Top 10. Yet she says she’s "not a natural born sprinter". So what is it? What's made her such an unstoppable force in the sporting world?
The answer? Unshakeable self belief.
Which weirdly, is the kind of confidence we don’t hear women talk about much. And it’s why we’re featuring Liz as another bonus episode to celebrate International Women’s Day. From her incredible rise to the peak of Australian athletics, to her sporting performances, to her snappy social captions - Liz backs herself all the way.
Here she chats with our executive editor Kara Byers about self-belief, celebrating big moments and why there's no ceiling to what she can achieve.

The theme of this year’s International Women’s Day (IWD) on March 8 is #breakthebias. We’re being urged to work towards a gender equal world, one that’s also diverse and inclusive. Since becoming editor-in-chief, it’s been my mission to make sure we’re doing that in Women’s Health, because I understand what it feels like to not be represented. We’re not doing this perfectly by any means. It’s taking time, but that’s our aim. Pushing for gender equality is also why this week our podcast is dedicated to elevating women in sport, who often do not get the same recognition or coverage as male athletes. Like Paralympian Madison de Rozario says, “When we’re at a point where we don’t need to say ‘women’s sport’ that’s when we’ve actually achieved something. - WH editor-in-chief Lizza Gebilagin
