Casey Sablowski is a wife, mother, teacher and Australian Olympic Games legend. Casey’s stellar career in Women’s field hockey included representation at the national junior level competing in junior World Cup tournaments, before solidifying her spot in the Australian Olympic team the Hockeyroos. In this role, she represented Australia at 3 Summer Olympic Games, and 2 Commonwealth Games, winning the gold medal at both Delhi in India and Glasgow in Scotland. After making the squad for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Australian coach Frank Murray described her as potentially the best female field hockey player in the world. And so began the Australian team’s prominence over the next 8 years before she retired after the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio De Janerio, Brazil. 

I could go on and on about Casey’s athletic accolades, but fundamentally, she is the epitome of hard work and dedication. A person that values camaraderie, team spirit and working towards common goals. Values she transfers into her personal life and teaching career.

In this week's episode, Casey is with me to share her journey, experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.

You'll find a particular kind of honesty in the conversations on Terrible. Happy, a podcast that sounds like a late-night chat in a backyard after a long day at the skatepark. Host Shan sits down with a rotating cast of characters from the Australian skateboarding scene and beyond, but the talk rarely stays on just tricks and terrain. It naturally veers into the messy, funny, and deeply human stuff that happens off the board: the struggles with fitness, the odd jobs that pay the bills, the mental health ups and downs, and the pure, alternative comedy of everyday life. This isn't a polished production; it's the raw audio of community, capturing the specific voices and stories that make this culture tick. Listeners will hear genuine interviews that feel more like catching up with an old mate, punctuated by the occasional chaos of THT Radio segments. It’s about finding the connection and the laughter in the grind, whether that's on four wheels or just trying to get through the week. The result is a uniquely Australian show that’s less about sports commentary and more about the shared, sometimes terrible, often happy reality of the people within it.
