Summary
Matildas fever swept across the country during the 2023 World Cup campaign, filling stadiums beyond capacity, uniting communities and inspiring the next generation of world-class athletes - and at the centre of it all was Mackenzie Arnold. In one of the iconic 'where-were-you-when' moments in Australian sports history, Macca faced down the French in an epic shootout, sending the Matildas through to the semifinals for the first time ever. We'll never forget the steel-eyed focus, the outstretched arms, the roar of victory.
But heroes don't just fall from the sky. Storybook endings often belie a lifetime's work, and the making of Mackenzie Arnold began well before that electric night in August.
Macca's story is one of dizzying heights and hard-won lessons. Whether it's facing down her doubts and fears to find the courage to be her truest self on and off the pitch; using her temporary setbacks to inspire others; or shouldering the hopes of a nation to deliver moments that transcend sport, Mackenzie Arnold has packed a lot into her life so far.
Honest, funny, brave and inspired, Macca shares her story here for the first time: the family and first-believers who supported and challenged her from the beginning; the coaches and mentors who pushed her beyond her comfort zone and provided the blueprint of a champion; the rivals and teammates who transformed the Matildas into a global force to be reckoned with.
And for her next act? Heroics and storybook endings are best left unscripted, but if Mackenzie Arnold has taught us one thing it's this: Don't blink.

Just a shame the audiobook isn’t read by Mackenzie herself, however I really enjoyed it, worth a listen nonetheless

Funny, raw, emotional and real.
Absolutely loved this from Mackenzie Arnold.
What an amazing book for a beautiful Human with character to prove her groundness and authenticity.
