Summary
Today is a seriously cool moment as I am sitting down to talk with women’s soccer icon Carli Lloyd. I played soccer growing up, so I’ve admired Carli as an athlete for so long. I get the chills remembering all the times I watched her and the USWNT in awe. For episode 168, we talk about everything from how she deals with unsolicited feedback and the haters to the way she’s managed her recovery from a tough knee injury a few years back. She also offers advice on the importance of self belief, gives us some insight into her mostly organic diet — we were actually connected by her sponsor at Gone Rogue Protein Snacks — AND can’t forget her stellar book and podcast recommendations.
