Michelle Payne is an Australian horse racing icon and the first female jockey to win the Melbourne Cup in 2015, riding Prince of Penzance to victory and breaking barriers in a male-dominated sport.

Ten years on from that magical win, I speak to her about:
Growing up with ten siblings
Making history as the only female to win the Cup
The dark side of fame
Brain injuries from her career
Dealing with the loss of her sister
The role of faith
Her living and working relationship with her brother Stevie
Her new books & what she’s working on now
