Soccer was my first love. Growing up, I was obsessed with Mia Hamm and the U.S. Women’s Soccer Team. I still vividly remember celebrating my 9th birthday watching the Boston Breakers, heading straight to a Harry Potter movie after the game, and blasting Avril Lavigne’s “Sk8er Boi” on the car ride home. 🤘🏻🤣 Ah, the early 2000s vibes.

Fast forward to attending the sold-out NWSL Championship and meeting Megan Rapinoe felt like living out a childhood dream. Megan has always been someone I’ve admired—not just for her tenacious style of play or her iconic goal celebrations (“Most Spirited” high school me LIVED for this 🔋)—but for her courage and conviction off the field.

Whether she’s kneeling in solidarity with Kaepernick, fighting for equal pay, or dropping truth bombs with Sue on A Touch More, Megan uses her platform with unapologetic purpose. She’s a constant reminder of the power of being bold, outspoken, and fearless in the pursuit of what’s right. Meeting her was a full-circle moment—and proof that the things we love as kids can shape the people we become. 💜

📸 Huge thank you to the women behind the scenes capturing all of these special moments:
