Momentum Season 1 Episode 2 - In conversation with Olympic boxer Tina Rahimi

Airdate: 2025-Jan-30

Episode summary:

ICYMI: Momentum's latest guest Tina Rahimi made huge waves last year - for all the right reasons. If she's not on your radar already, Tina is an Australian boxer who participated in the 2022 Commonwealth Games (winning Bronze in the Women's Featherweight Division), and later competed at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, where she won the hearts of fans around the world. Tina was also the first woman to represent Australia in a hijab in boxing (just casually). In a move that dominated headlines, Tina spoke up against France's ban on the country's female athletes from wearing hijabs at the Olympics - a move for which she was praised both in Australia and beyond. As well as doing all the above and killing it in general, Tina's also a makeup artist - honestly, could we have a more perfect guest on the show?
