Breaking down barriers is a hallmark of Alex Scott's incredible career as a professional footballer turned popular sports presenter. In this fireside chat with our Arena host and award-winning broadcaster Charlene White, Alex will talk about some of the racial and sexual discrimination she and others have faced in football and punditry, what more should be done to tackle bias, and how she refused to let limiting beliefs curtail her success. She will also talk about her experiences of online abuse, how it impacted her mental health and how she's learned to cope ' and what she'd like to see done to protect herself and others.
