309. Ally Sentnor on Finding Home at Angel City, USWNT, & Mental Toughness

This week’s episode is presented by e.l.f. Cosmetics! We are joined by Angel City forward and U.S. Women’s National Team player, Ally Sentnor. Since Ally last joined us during her rookie season with the Utah Royals, a lot has changed. We sit down to discuss her transition to the West Coast, finding a sense of stability with Angel City in Los Angeles, and the excitement of playing alongside both familiar faces and world-class international teammates.Ally opens up about the importance of mental fitness, her experience working with sports psychologists, and how her "hands-on, hands-off" parents helped her establish an identity outside of the game. We also discuss her partnership with e.l.f. to keep young girls in sports, and what it truly means to feel like you belong on the pitch. Finally, we play a fun round of "Change the Game" where Ally shares some hot takes on NWSL rules—including why drawing a penalty should count as an assist!Whether you’re an athlete navigating change, a fan of the NWSL, or looking for inspiration on building confidence, this conversation with Ally is packed with invaluable insight.
