  • Special Edition - Girlhood, Boyhood, and How Liam Payne's Death Made Me Reflect on Them Both
    Oct 24 2024

    In this episode, we explore the unexpected impact of Liam Payne’s death on girlhood and its connection to motorsport’s own challenges with exclusivity. I reflect on how One Direction's music shaped a generation of women, providing a sense of community, joy, and belonging. We also dive into the idea of "boyhood" and its exclusiveness, especially within spaces like motorsport, where women are often seen as outsiders. This isn’t about dissecting Liam’s life, but about how he—and the band—allowed women to celebrate both girlhood and boyhood, while questioning why the reverse often isn’t true. Tune in for a heartfelt conversation on music, motorsport, and the evolving dynamics of gender in these spaces.
