Season 2 Episode 8
In this episode, I am joined by Becky Burleigh, long time head coach of the women's soccer team at the University of Florida followed by a stint leading Orlando Pride in the NWSL! Becky is also one of the leaders of the What Drives Winning curriculum on not only the impact and importance of coaching, but how we go about our lives every single day! She also speaks about relationships throughout the episode, including those she has with her former players.
Becky shares her coaching journey, including her time prior to arriving in Gainesville, and the amazing people she met and worked with along the way. She speaks on her ambition to become a soccer coach and her parents feelings on this aspiration. Becky speaks on her move to the University of Florida, the making of the Gators soccer program, and gives some awesome insight into the UofF athletic program! She has been a part of the growth and development of What Drives Winning and now teaches a master's program utilizing the same curriculum at the University of Florida! She takes time to speak about her experience with the Orlando Pride and what the future for her may entail!
There is so much in this episode, and I am so excited to share this with you! Becky is the first #CoachesCornerChats Dream Guest to be on the podcast!
