'I STARTED A MAGAZINE... at age 11!"

She might not yet be a teenager, but Abbie* from Her Way magazine is already giving Australia’s top journalists a run for their money – and exclusives!

The Sydney schoolgirl is the founder and editor of the digital magazine, which covers women’s sports the way it deserves.

Launching Her Way in 2021 during the pandemic, Abbie says she was driven by a desire to change the way Australian media writes about female athletes.

Since then, Abbie, 12, has interviewed Olympic gold medallists, tennis stars, AFLW and WNBL players and Paralympians.
