USWNT Icon Abby Wambach Opens Up About Retirement on ‘1v1 with Kelley O’Hara’

Date:

To kick off the new season of 1v1 With Kelley O’Hara presented by RBC Wealth Management, O’Hara sits down with USWNT legend Abby Wambach to discuss the sometimes rocky road to retirement.

First, the former USWNT teammates talk candidly about Wambach’s decision to hang up her boots and how she prepared for life after soccer. Then the all-time leading US goalscorer opens about learning to build a life off the pitch, before sharing some lasting bits of wisdom picked up along the way.

“It’s important to figure out what is enough,” Wambach reflects. “So often we can get lost in our lives because we don’t talk about it.”

Ultimately, Wambach says, it’s about facing one question: “What kind of a future do you really want and how are you going to spend the rest of your life?”
