Carli Lloyd: Forged through Failure
from The Pressure Lab · host Philadelpha Union Foundation
Carli Lloyd’s legendary career was built by learning how to lose. Carli and host Keith Wilford sit down to explore the mental work behind one of the most decorated players in the game. Carli looks back on getting cut from the U-21 National Team, questioning whether she wanted to keep playing, and rebuilding her confidence after setbacks. They get into the pressure she carried into the 2015 World Cup, learning to compete against herself, and how failure became feedback instead of something to fear. This is a conversation about pressure, identity, and what it takes to keep going when things get hard. Because the real work of being an athlete happens after the mistake.
