Description

In that course, you'll find 101 secrets from someone who was in your place. Who went through the journey of becoming a Professional Soccer Player and made it. Now, she wants to give back to the game, by giving back to the girls. With this guide, you have everything you need to know and a few funny anecdotal stories from a girl who’s done it all before.

Although each one of our journeys is different, you will be able to take something from her words and make them your own. If not just drawing some inspiration from her story as she tells about making her way onto two national teams, two Division I University teams, and three professional teams—with more to come. Through her struggles that every player meets at some point, sitting on the bench and feeling discouraged to battling against negative female player stereotypes to problems she hopes no one has to go through, like hip surgery, she hopes that within that course you can give yourself the best chance of making it as a professional soccer player in a world where they encourage anything but.
