Host Erin Foley welcomes Clelia Castro-Malaspina, a children's and YA author, literary agent, and founder of Mossy Pines Creative. Her new book Girls with Goals: How Women's Soccer Took Over the World explores the rise of women's football from its humble and embattled origins to its global dominance today.

Foley and Castro-Malaspina discuss how women's soccer evolved from a banned pastime to a global powerhouse, the game's early trailblazers, its biggest turning points, and how their fight for equality continues to shape the sport today.
