Growing up with a love for cricket and football, she faced the challenges of a male-dominated industry and the feeling of marginalisation that often comes with it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her passion for change shines through as she shares her dedication to transforming the sports landscape, particularly for women and women of colour. Her commitment to inclusivity isn\u2019t just personal; it\u2019s about creating a future where everyone can see themselves represented. Listen to discover how Shruti breaks down barriers and champions women in sport. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Volunteering as a Catalyst for Change<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shruti reflects on the role of volunteering, both as a means of personal growth and as a way to bring communities together. Her involvement with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecb.co.uk\/play\/volunteering\/dream-big\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dream Big Desi Women<\/a> project highlights the importance of fostering inclusive spaces. Teh project welcomes diverse participants and pushes beyond traditional barriers. In 2022, the Dream Big Desi Women campaign celebrated getting over 2,000 South Asian women involved in volunteering in cricket. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportengland.org\/blogs\/dream-big-desi-women-ensuring-diversity-cricket\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">You can find out more about the project here.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving Inclusivity Across Sports Organizations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shruti, Chris, and Imo discussed the broader implications of diversity within sports organisations. She highlighted the need for fresh perspectives and youth engagement to keep the industry relevant and inclusive. Her experience creating safe networking spaces &#8211; particularly for South Asian women in sports &#8211; demonstrates the value of building supportive environments that go beyond sports, addressing mental health and shared experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Looking to the Future<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Towards the end of the episode, Shruti shares her vision for an inclusive future. She hopes sports can act as a platform for empowerment and meaningful societal change. Her insights on navigating power dynamics with vulnerability and courage provide a hopeful roadmap for a more inclusive and equitable world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Huge thanks to Shruti for coming onto the pod. That wraps up season three. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to listen. Whether you&#8217;ve tuned in for one episode or all 17 of them! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe style=\"border-radius:12px\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/episode\/4w6uJN4FD6zHC2e9RYqmBk?utm_source=generator\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameBorder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can find\u00a0<span style=\"color: #8c91ba;\"><a style=\"color: #8c91ba;\" href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/\">TeamKinetic<\/a><\/span> on social media and listen to our podcast:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><span style=\"color: #1da1f2;\"><a style=\"color: #1da1f2;\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TeamKineticUK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/span> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <span style=\"color: #3b5998;\"><a style=\"color: #3b5998;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TeamKineticUK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <span style=\"color: #0a66c2;\"><a style=\"color: #0a66c2;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/teamkinetic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/TeamKinetic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <span style=\"color: #c32aa3;\"><a style=\"color: #c32aa3;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/teamkineticuk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<span style=\"color: #1ed760;\"><a style=\"color: #1ed760;\" href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/2qCaTamq77sAE9qmnCcQVe?si=161b47be46b64046\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Podcast<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>Have you enjoyed using TeamKinetic?
