#182 - Sophia Wilson speaks on her WNT comeback, motherhood, and cookies

Sophia Wilson is back on the field for both the United States Women’s National Team and the Portland Thorns after giving birth to her daughter Gigi back in September. Her comeback has been highly anticipated, and we get a chance to connect about her comeback on Episode 182. Wilson was on as part of her partnership with Mondelēz International, which includes some limited edition cookies as well as a sweepstakes to win some cool prizes. But in addition to cookies, we talk about the soccer and what she’s learned about herself as she worked her way back onto the field. We also discuss the USWNT and what they need to do in order to prepare for the Concacaf W Championship this fall, which serves as Women’s World Cup qualifying and Olympic qualifying. Finally, we talk with Sophia Wilson about her connection to young fans all across the country and how she embraces the responsibility of being a role model and leader very early in her career.
