Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Mel Barcenas and Kristen McNabb are Underrated Besties
Q: How has resting and recharging changed your approach to training over the years?
Resting has become an integral part of training, helping to extend careers and maintain mental and physical health; it's about giving the body and mind the time to recover so you can come back stronger.
Rooting for the Underdog with DiDi Haračić
Q: When did you first realize you might go pro, and what was the pathway like back then?
The path was much tougher and less stable; I wasn't drafted initially and had to prove myself through lower leagues and training stints, eventually earning a pro spot after persistence and networking, with a pivotal moment when Rooting gave me my first NWSL chance.
Becoming a Pro with Mimi Van Zanten
Q: How did your sister influence your path to pro, and what was it like to navigate the recruitment and transfer decisions?
Her sister played a central advisory role, helping assemble questions to ask, weighing pros and cons, and guiding the process with insider knowledge from her own pro career, which helped Mimi make informed, confident choices.
Becoming a Pro with Mimi Van Zanten
Q: When did you start thinking seriously about college soccer and going pro?
She notes that eighth grade conversations with colleges and early attention from schools like Harvard marked the start of a target, but the decisive shift came from realizing the opportunities at Florida State and the dream of becoming a professional, which led to her early departure from college.
Becoming a Pro with Mimi Van Zanten
Q: What was your first memory of kicking a ball and how did you get started in soccer?
She recalls an early backyard ritual with sisters, a community rec league, and a landmark moment when a coach used the word cupcake to motivate her, which became a playful cue that sparked her love for the game.
