Season 2 Episode 7
In this episode I chat with Candice Fabry, head coach of the Kansas City Courage who plays in the United Women's Soccer League, founder of the female mentorship platform Fearless and Capable, US Soccer Coach Educator, and so many other amazing "hats"!! Candice is open and honest about her soccer playing and coaching journey. From her days as a youth player near Chicago, to her time at the University of Toledo, and then the completion of her 'D' coaching license and the many stops and experiences that has brought along the way! Candice speaks on coaching and living with holistically. And this is apparent throughout the chat ... she shares positives of her life, as well some struggles, personal and professionally. Being a female coach, and many times the only female coach in situations, has given Candice some great insight on what can and should be done to help support females in the world of soccer. She is an advocate for females and understand the need for more structured opportunities and experiences to be available to women, young and old. Candice speaks about being solution driven and problem solvers rather than just pointing out all the issues to be fixed. Candice speaks on the balancing act of being a mother, wife, coach, mentor, and leader. She talks about the support of her parents and husband throughout her coaching journey. Leadership and mentorship is very important to Candice and she shares her thoughts on creating leaders who recognize others have weaknesses, but that they are there to help find ways to improve on those weaknesses.
