I feel like embracing . Feminine athleticism is something that I strive for and something that I want to share with the community , whether that's look good , feel good , play good , or doing something , connecting with your audience and letting them know that you can be beautiful and you can be strong at the same time is something that I want to achieve on the athletic side and with my community and letting them know and being a positive role model of that . Aspect .
And I think that's totally fine because I feel like there's so much out there and there's so much that I can do and so much that I can be and so much that I can learn . So I feel like just excelling in the academics so my athletics can come with that too . And so that's soccer and And what I learned and the intelligence that I create can combine and can create something amazing .
My name is Layla Armas . I play on UCLA women's soccer , and you can check me out on Next Level Prep .
And make them who they want them to be . They take their athlete , take the best traits about them , and , and let them excel in that . They don't try to make you something that you're not , which is um a really big reason why I love UCLA and also the environment .
One of the biggest challenges that I face as an athlete , and I know other athletes can relate to this too , is the injury part of the game because you have to sit out for a certain amount of time or you don't feel like you're all the way in with the team . That can be a really hard part of being an athlete . How I overcome injuries , whether that's little injuries where you're out for only a week or two , or that's bigger injuries where you're out for a year or two .
