Description
Naya comes from a family of track athletes and football players. She came to volleyball late but has had a stellar career spanning many countries and awards.  After discussing the pathway to professional volleyball (definitely not a typical one), Marcus and Naya dive into the unseen side of sport - abusive coaches, negative environments, and speaking up for what’s right despite pushback. Off-court topics include climate action, corporate responsibility, and the best and worst of humanity. Naya is a strong and energetic person who has a lot to give. You’ll love this episode! Enjoy.
