Yeah, I don't play for the fame.

I play for the king.

Yeah.

Every step on the field, let the heavens ring.

Got Jesus in my heart, so I run with a purpose.

Yeah, this is sports spectrum.

Faith on the surface.

What is up?

Julie Earts.

So fun to have you on Sports Spectrum.

And thanks so much for making time today.

Oh my gosh. I'm so excited to be here. Well, so cool. And we're just honored to have you on ahead of the World Cup and excited to hear about your own experiences, your faith, and the incredible work of International Justice Mission and what they're doing. But it is summertime. And I know you got three little ones to keep busy. So what's something fun you're doing with your family this summer? You know what? Before it gets way too hot in Arizona, we are outside 24-7. I think it's more for mom sanity, but they also love it too. So it's like, great. We're outside all the time. But we will be at a couple World Cup games too. So I'm super excited because I'm actually

going to take my oldest son. So it's going to be a really special moment for Zach and I to like

kind of show him. I mean, that seems insane, right, to like be on such a big stage that it's here

in the United States. So I'm really excited for it. And how old is your oldest son? He will be four in August, so a little over three and a half, yeah. Wow. Early going and he's already going to be at a World Cup game. That is so special. What a cool moment to share with him. But I know you got a lot of that going on World Cup and taking care of the kids, but you've also started a podcast with Kalea Watt style of play. What are you excited about this for the podcast? I'm really excited. And Kay is such a great partner for this, too. The men's World Cup is right now. And then after that, you got one year until a U.S. Women's National Team World Cup in Brazil. And so, you know, being retired now, it's fun to have a very holistic

perspective, I think, on women soccer. And so we obviously will be talking soccer, but it's also

just like what makes a professional woman athlete great. And there's so many different stories.

There's never two stories that are the same. And so to be able to share that and different

perspectives and different people from other sports as well,

it's a really cool way for us to share those people in our life on and off the pitch.

And gosh, just what makes sports so great, right?

Like that's what connects us.
