Team Member 87 - Khalida Popal

Team Lisa - der Podcast über Frauen im Sport

This might be the episode with most gravitas, the story that has touched my heart most: Khalida Popal flew her home country, life threats in order to follow her dream: to play football.

My dear team,

I know we’ve had a couple of English episodes recently but this one I am begging you to listen to until the end.

Before we go any further I must mention a trigger warning though because we do cover some really harsh, even brutal experiences she has been through.

But Our new team member has the single most incredible life story I’ve ever heard. It will make you think differently about life, motivation, perseverance and purpose. About society, refugees, and justice. and most of all: THE POWER of Sports!!!!

Maybe this is the most inspirational and meaningful episode I’ve ever recorded for Team Lisa. This is where we can learn, take the push from to do whatever we truly want to do because if SHE can follow her dream, WE can follow ours!

Please go check out the show notes for more information about her organization.

Reach out if you feel like sharing your thoughts on this episode and as always please follow us if you enjoyed what you heard.

Now get ready for our new rockstar team member. This is: Khalida Popal
