The Olympics are right around the corner so on this special episode we talk to former Olympian Ali Krieger, a legend in the soccer world. As a former World Cup champion, U.S. Olympian, and National Women's Soccer League champion on Gotham FC, she redefined what the game could be, especially for women. But soccer was more than just a career for her—it was a critical component along her journey to self-discovery. On this episode of She Pivots, Ali talks about her love for soccer and competition from a young age; the struggles and triumphs of playing overseas in Germany after college; the feeling (and pressure!) of being an Olympian; how leading Gotham FC from last in the league to champions was deeply personal for her; and her journey to living openly and becoming a mother while still playing soccer professionally.

She Pivots was created by host Emily Tisch Sussman to highlight women, their stories, and how their pivot became their success. To learn more about Ali, follow us on Instagram @ShePivotsThePodcast or visit shepivotsthepodcast.com.
