Renee is the Founder & CEO of Amazi Foods, a mindful tropical-fruit food company that works directly with small businesses and farmers groups in Uganda to make these delicious snacks that are bringing some much-needed excitement into the dried fruit category.

She shares with us her journey in finding joy in sport and building confidence and how this not only led her to an incredible career with the USWNT from 1987-2004, but it also led to the eventual foundation of the leadership academy that she runs today for young women athletes. In our conversation, Julie emphasizes the importance of leadership that transcends the sports field; we see this in her discussion of the ongoing fight for equal pay in sport and her partnership with CLIF that supports her activism efforts. Julie Foudy is an inspiration to young women athletes everywhere, and her confidence, joy, and determination are truly gifts that we all can learn from.

She's famous from her team's history changing Women's World Cup Title in 1999.

As she's done since she was still a player in 1998, Julie will cover this year's USWNT in New Zealand and Australia as they go for an unprecedented third World Cup in a row.

If laughter really is the best medicine, please sit back and allow this conversation between Lisa McCaffrey and her former Stanford soccer teammate Julie Foudy cure whatever ails you. Foudy is a two-time FIFA Women's World Cup champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist, but the Hall of Famer's ability to effortlessly roast her old pal with stories from their playing days is almost as impressive as anything she accomplished on the pitch. Speaking of which, Foudy has some poignant reflections on what the United States' first Women's World Cup win in 1999 did for the sport [15:45]. But she also wonders why that watershed moment didn't catapult the growth of and investment in women's soccer at a faster rate. Foudy gives a great primer on the upcoming 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup that kicks off next month in Australia and New Zealand [24:50]. Hear her describe the challenges the US Women's National Team will face as they try to make World Cup history with a three-peat.
