The NWSL has just agreed to a set of media rights deals totaling $240 million over four years.

My favorite story of the Women’s World Cup is these women succeeding in spite of the lack of resources they have. Their country needs to get behind them financially. The success of women in sports is often undermined by lack of investment.

Jamaica had to launch a GoFundMe to help pay for their trip to the Women’s World Cup. They just knocked out Brazil — and are headed to the Round of 16 for the first time in the nation’s history.

With a bachelor’s degree I worked part-time at Subway, as a receptionist, and as a cashier at a department store. I sold mattresses with a master’s degree. I also am human enough to know that your job does not dictate your value.
