You'll find 101 secrets from someone 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. 

Each one of our journeys is different, but you will be able to take something from her words and make them your own. If not, draw 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. By listening to her struggles that every player has at some point - from sitting on the bench and feeling discouraged to battling negative female player stereotypes to problems she hopes no one has to go through, like hip surgery - she hopes that you can give yourself the best chance of making it as a professional soccer player in a world where they encourage anything but.
