Carli Lloyd is an Olympic medalist who spent seven years playing
with the United States Women's National Volleyball Team. However,
after her first Olympic games and two years into training for her
second Carli made the decision to walk away from the national team,
from the olympics, from everything she had worked for. You might be
thinking, Why? Well today, and for the first time ever, Carli is
opening up intimately about this decision and the powerful
realizations she’s had about herself, life, and purpose along the
way. Many of you have probably heard the term "more than an
athlete," well Carli is one of the most beautiful examples of that
phrase. We talk about past trauma, dealing with suicide and
suicidal thoughts, the challenges and downfalls of competitive
sport, allowing ourselves to feel, and what it means to SHOW UP AS
YOURSELF! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
