Read by the author, Jodie Ounsley.

Be strong, be brave, be confident and keep smashing it with the nation's favourite Gladiator – Fury!

You might know me as Fury from the TV show Gladiators. Or you might like rugby and maybe you know me from when I played for England. Or you might have seen some of the work I do telling people what it’s like to live as a profoundly deaf person. You might not know me at all – and if that’s the case, it’s great to meet you. 

In her debut book, Gladiator, rugby star and champion of the deaf community Jodie Ounsley wants to show YOU that you can do anything you put your mind to – you just have to believe you can. Written with journalist Becky Grey, Keep Smashing It is full of stories from Jodie's life, advice and top tips that will inspire you to back yourself and believe in yourself, and smash the barriers that are in your way.

It will show you how to:

- Learn that our differences are our superpowers
- Smash the barriers that the world has put up
- Speak up for what you believe in
- Pick yourself up and try again
