“The truth is, I've been on a team my whole life. I'm the youngest of 7...” — Abby Wambach Quote

The truth is, I've been on a team my whole life. I'm the youngest of 7, so I've been training to be an athlete my whole life.

If I can help a kid feel more comfortable in their skin because they're struggling with maybe the things I struggled with in high school, that's great.

I want my legacy to be about the soccer, and if I can help people be happier in life in any capacity, awesome.

I think, as you grow older, you have figure out the best way to utilize not only your body but your skill.

As an athlete and as a woman, I get my confidence from playing sports because it shifts your focus from what your body looks like to what your body can do for you. That's what we all should be doing. It shouldn't be about looking perfect.
