This Is A Token // Episode Seventeen - Elyse Perry
An unstoppable Australian sportswoman who has represented her country in both cricket and football - the inspirational, pioneering and incredibly down to earth Ellyse Perry joins Alex on our ‘This is a Token’ podcast for a chat about her most meaningful pieces of jewellery. From early undefined memories of a Polly Pocket charm bracelet to her treasured Alex Monroe Peacock Feather necklace which her wonderful and supportive mum gifted her on her 18th birthday!
Listen in as Alex and Ellyse have a fascinating conversation about the joys of being able to ‘play’ rather than ‘work’ for a living, her passion for encouraging girls to stay engaged in sports as they grow up, and how those fleeting moments of ‘flow’ when she is performing at her best, are what life is all about!
