Episode 215: Leslie Osborne

How do we measure success? If we want to look at long-term personal success, we can look no further than this episode’s featured guest Leslie Osborne. And to add to her many successes, she is now part owner of the National women’s Soccer League’s newest team in Northern California.

The former USWNT midfielder brings a lifetime of knowledge to the league, as a world-class footballer, business owner, broadcaster, entrepreneur, and mom of three young girls. 

On this episode, Leslie shares the story of her new NWSL team, what success means to her, a few of the life lessons she’d like to pass to the next generation, and more! This is an interview you want to catch! (9’)
