Who we are

We’re two former Division I athletes who grew up in the thick of it. Club soccer, travel teams, injuries, college recruitment, the politics, the pressure, and everything in between.

We were passionate athletes who wanted to compete at the highest level available to us. At the same time, we were trying to make the right moves with families doing their best to support us in a system they didn’t always understand.

Now, we’re building what we wish existed – a place for families to get honest perspective, and the clarity that is often missing. No fluff. No sales pitch. Just real, transparent conversations.

Throughout our journies, we’ve built a network of athletes, coaches, parents, and mentors, all people with real stories and hard-won lessons. This is our way of pulling all that together and sharing it with the next generation.
