Today’s show is all about Abby Wambach, a US Olympic Gold Medalist and her #1 New York Times Bestseller book titled, “Wolfpack.” She is a beast (in all the right ways) and has much to say about women taking the lead and empowering each other.
In this episode you will hear:
- How Abbey’s insights into taking the f#*ing ball as a woman and what that means for you
- Why you should not be afraid to say, “Give me the F#*ing Ball” at the top of your proverbial lungs
- How having your own wolfpack of women can lead towards teaching each other assertiveness as a whole
Questions from Shereen:
“Where in your life are you avoiding demanding what you deserve, where can you take back the ball? Where in your life are you giving up too much power?
“After you have thought a little about where you can take back the F#*ing ball, will you email me and let me know? I want to hear about it, that would make my day!”
