Jordan Jesolva is one third of Neighborhood Sports Club, the creative collective using football, fashion and art to build community for the people of Oakland, California. 

That’s pretty cool, but we don’t really talk about that.

Instead, Jordan shares the origins of her football love story, that playing professionally was the only option she ever saw for herself and how that dream was met with constant opposition from her body.

No bitterness in sight, though. She’s stronger for every injury and corresponding surgery, finds herself exactly where she’s meant to be and in a position to help those fighting the same battles.

All that and more, including breath work!

Over to Jordan
