Brandi is a retired soccer player, two time FIFA Women's World Cup champion and two time Olympic gold-medalist. She is widely known for the 'kick heard around the world,' when she kicked the winning penalty kick in the 1999 World Cup championship game and ceremoniously ripped her jersey off of her back before she ran to celebrate with her teammates. Frankly, I had her on the show because I watched that event live as a 12 year old girl and was deeply effected by it. She was one of my first ideas of strong women and female athletes. We covered her upbringing, her philosophy now as a coach and what she hopes to pass on to young women 20 years after she changed the landscape of female athletics for all eternity. Honored to have been on with her! Enjoy!
