This week Andrew talks with soccer legend Carli Lloyd. Carli is a 2x World Cup Champion, 2x Olympic Gold Medalist, & back-to-back FIFA Women’s World Player of the Year in 2015 & 2016. In 2003, Carli was cut from the US U-21 national team—and thought her dream of playing for the US Women’s National team was over. Instead of quitting, Carli reshaped her mindset to embrace challenges, stop making excuses, & turn her weaknesses into strengths. She went on to play 17 years with the US Women’s National Team and played in more World Cup & Olympic matches than any US player in history. This conversation is for anyone who’s ever been knocked down, cut from a team, missed a promotion, or fallen short of a goal. It’s filled with insight to help you achieve championship level success in anything—and is a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we're open to change & willing to do the work.
