“It's a tough world, it's not easy. Everyone's battling with something. But my battles definitely come from feeling I'm not where I want to be, but I need to look back because it’s just like climbing a ladder" - Chelcee Grimes

I’m pleased to announce another special episode of This Way Up. I was very privileged to talk with singer/songwriter, footballer and presenter Chelcee Grimes at the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity.

Chelcee has written songs for the likes of Dualipa and Kylie Minogue to name just a few. She's also a professional footballer playing for Fulham FC ladies and a presenter for BBC Sport and Copa 90. And she is currently covering the Women's World Cup with her own show on BBC Sport #chelceeaway.

It’s during our conversation that Chelcee opens up about the ups & downs of football life as a young women, how she went from unknown artist to writing songs for Dua Lipa and Kylie Minogue and releasing her own singles but also the creative process behind her songs and how being a footballer has prepared her from the brutal world of music.

We talk about not fitting into boxes and following your own path and how Chelcee is such a positive example of exactly that.
Please enjoy this empowering and honest conversation with the kick-ass Chelcee Grimes.
