Welcome to Sky Sports Editions<\/a>, where we meet remarkable sportswomen as they direct their very own cover shoot. Alongside all of the live women\u2019s sport coverage on Sky, this new Sky Sports series provides a space for these extraordinary athletes to tell their personal journeys, in their own words. Before the Natasha Jonas Edition shoot, the boxer shared her thoughts with us on making history, motherhood and everything in between.<\/em><\/p>\n

Moving past society\u2019s expectations of women requires grit. Boxer Natasha Jonas<\/a>, spotlighted in episode two of Sky Sports Editions, attributes her success to her willingness to go against the grain. \u201cI have always had this innate desire to prove people wrong,\u201d she says. \u201cI never wanted to fit into the stereotypical boxes people put you into. It wasn\u2019t always easy, but I believe I\u2019ve stayed true to myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now a two-weight world champion, Natasha realises her own influence, with a new generation of girls looking to her for guidance. Her mission: to propel women forward in the boxing industry. \u201cWe\u2019ve made huge strides in terms of progression in boxing,\u201d she says. \u201cBut like with many female sports, we\u2019re nowhere near the finished article. Visibility is the key to most things, especially in sport.\u201d<\/p>\n
