320. Mastering Your Craft: Melissa Ortiz On Running Toward Big Goals & Translating Her Passion For Sport Into A Broadcasting Career
Manage episode 442748913 series 1967683
"Believe in the run" is the name of the game for today’s guest, Melissa Ortiz. She’s a former pro soccer player, Olympian, and current broadcaster and host who’s had her fair share of hurdles getting to this point. We talk about her career journey, the highs and lows of professional soccer, what it was like to get to the Olympic level and how she segued her passion for sport from the field to the big screen. Melissa shares her advice on how to show up day in and day out with confidence and the reward of working diligently to master your craft.
Melissa also completed her first marathon while in Paris and I am happy to report that not only did she finish, but she had a remarkable time and her Instagram recap is a must see.
