Kiera Austin | Australian Netball Player
About Kiera
Joining the GIANTS Netball team in 2018, young athlete Kiera Austin built a reputation as one of Australia’s most promising goalers and a multi-talent, playing across both WA and GA positions. Since then, Kiera has been thriving. She was named GIANTS Netball MVP in 2020, took on the position of Goal Attack in the Suncorp Super Netball Team, earned a selection in the Australian Diamonds Squad, and subsequently won Constellation Cup in March of 2021.
Following those ecstatic highs, Kiera faced an ACL injury that put her out for the season and found herself having to refocus her energy on recovery and rehabilitation.
During the lockdown, as we all did, Kiera found herself craving one of the best elements of being active. The community. As a professional athlete, Kiera has thrived in a team, excited to train every day and be around like-minded people who keep her accountable.
This is how she discovered PUML.
On the PUML Better Health app, Kiera found a community of her people — some also facing ACL injuries. As she told us, “It’s hard to stay motivated alone. But, joining a community makes it easier.”
Inspired by the community on PUML and the idea of a blockchain-based platform that incentivises users to train, Kiera came on board with her very own ‘Train With Kiera’ campaign.
What is the PUML Train With Me Campaign?
Supported by the Queensland Government’s ActiveKIT program, Train With Me is a campaign to connect people with their favourite athletes to participate together in challenges that encourage health and wellness. Committed to our’ Women in Sport’ movement, PUML is working with female athletes to drive these challenges to support their community and elevate the standards of health and wellbeing.
Through PUML’s blockchain-based platform, users have a unique opportunity to compete with their favourite athletes while also earning rewards, like PUML coins and NFTs. Digital assets with actual value as a reward for getting active.
We all know that gamification on apps helps people to stay engaged. At PUML, we take that up a notch. PUML Coin incentives participants to stay healthy and active. With your Coins, you can redeem products and services from our built-in marketplace. These Coins can even be donated to partner charities, offering them real, impactful donations.
One of the best parts of being an athlete, according to Kiera, is getting to train every day. She lights up when talking about how her body responds and how much she radiates after a good training session. She understands the connection between mental wellbeing and physical wellbeing and wants to encourage and support others to feel better in their bodies. To feel healthy and strong, inside and out.
Big results start with small steps, and Keira’s Step Challenge is designed to build gradual momentum at a skill level accessible to everyone. Recovering from an injury recently, Kiera is encouraging everyone to train with her to get active and feel the inner effects that health brings.
Another important part of her recovery was being mindful of what goes into her body. Despite not training, hydration remained important for keeping her body healthy. Through her Hydration Challenge, Kiera is cheering others on to keep their body in full health, beyond the exercise.
Through training and healthy activities, feeling how your body feels when it is strong and healthy, you can better understand how precious your body is and what it can really do for you.
