Sher&Lil - Fearless in the World of Rugby League - Our Inner Sparks - Featured Stories (Episode 6)
How do you face your greatest fear?
In this episode, I invited my partner in Sher&Lil to share our story of being ambassadors of rugby league. On this journey together, we have discovered our passion, faced our greatest fears, learned many skills and life lessons, and strengthened our friendship. We are very excited to share our story with you and hope it will inspire you to follow your passion and become fearless.
Sherri and I were first introduced to the great sport of rugby league by the Toronto Wolfpack - the first and only professional rugby league team in North America. We have been promoting the sport of rugby league - the sport we have become so passionate about - for the past year. We have created video content about this great sport through fan and player interviews (national, international, and RFL) to create greater global awareness of this sport.
