And so that was something that I struggle with . Yeah , so I overcame those things by , I really leaned on one of my coaches , and he was really willing to grow with me . He hadn't had a lot of people like go powerful and so it was , he was also learning and recruiting and like .
Like everything that you put in will eventually reward you . And I think even if it's little , like one thing at a time , it'll eventually come back and you'll realize that maybe not all at once , but slowly , you'll feel confident or gain just like little steps . And I would say that that's the best thing I've ever been told .
Like , there's so many girls across the country who are feeling the exact same way . And no matter what program you end up at , you will find success , and you'll find people who care about the game so much and have been through so many of the same things as you . And I think high school is like a really isolating time for Someone who's recruiting who's being recruited and doesn't have like .
You're doing the college process so much earlier than anyone else , and knowing that . In the reality of it , everyone who is going to the same place that you'll end up at also will relate to you and will have shared the same struggles , and you'll be able to laugh at it going into college now because it was such a stressful time , but now it's like such a funny thing to look back at . Some advice I would give to younger athletes is be yourself , like you really want to find somewhere that cares for who you are as the person too , because everyone's going to care about the soccer .
I'm on the women's soccer team at Northwestern University . I would say some of the best advice that I've been given is just work on your own . Like everything that you put in will eventually reward you .
