💔 just read about Mary Earps' retirement from international soccer and it's bittersweet for me 🤕...I mean who needs to deal with pressure to perform when you're already feeling trapped? 😩 her story shows that even accomplished athletes need to prioritize their mental health, but what about the ones who can't afford to take time off? 🤑 the reality is, many people struggle to balance their personal and professional lives, and it's not always easy to know when to quit or keep going...and I'm just thinking, what if she didn't make that decision and what would be her story then? 🤔
 
OMG I'm literally so inspired by Mary's story 🤩! She's like the ultimate role model for me, you know? I mean, I've always been obsessed with goalkeepers in soccer (🏀 is more my thing but goalkeeper skills are EVERYTHING) and now I can see why she's one of the best. The way she spoke up for herself and prioritized her own needs over the team's expectations is like, SO empowering 💪! I need to take some notes from this girl, you know? Like, how did she even do it? She went through all that pressure and still managed to be so confident and strong. And Sarina Wurst too, what a cool manager 🙌! Anyway, I'm definitely going to pick up Mary Earps' book ASAP ⏰📚
 
I'm low-key so done with the pressure to conform in sports 🤯. Mary Earps' story is like, totally relatable for anyone who's ever felt trapped or stuck in a situation that's not truly yours. I mean, can you imagine having to put the team first all the time and suppressing your own needs and desires? 😩 It's crazy to think about how much self-awareness and confidence Mary had to tap into just to break free from that toxic dynamic.

And let's be real, it's also wild how much of a impact Sarina Wurst had on Mary's career... like, what even is the message there? 🤔 That if you stay loyal and devoted, everyone else will see your value? No thanks. I think we can all agree that self-preservation and prioritizing our own growth is way more important than some arbitrary idea of "staying true to the team". 💁‍♀️
 
I'm so inspired by Mary's story 🙌, you know? She had to find the courage to speak up for herself, even when it meant disappointing those around her. It's like, we all need to remember that our own happiness and well-being are super important 💕. I think it's awesome that she was able to learn from her experiences and use them to grow both as a person and an athlete 🏆. Sarina Wurst is also a great example of someone who can support and empower another person, even if it means letting them go 👋. Mary's story is like, totally relatable and I'm sure lots of people will be able to connect with her struggles and triumphs 💪.
 
You know when you're stuck in a situation that's just not right for you but you feel like you gotta keep going 'cause it's expected of you? 🤔 Like Mary Earps, we've all been there. But sometimes, taking that risk and being honest with yourself and others is the only way to truly grow and find happiness. It's easy to get caught up in what others think you should be doing, but at the end of the day, it's our own hearts that need to guide us. If Mary Earps had stayed in England just 'cause she felt obligated, would we've seen the amazing player she really was? I don't think so 🙅‍♀️. We gotta learn to listen to ourselves and trust our instincts, even when it means making tough decisions. 💪
 
I'M SO INSPIRED BY MARY EARPS' STORY!!! 🤩 SHE'S SUCH AN AMAZING ROLE MODEL FOR ALL THE YOUNG GOALKEEPERS OUT THERE. IT TAKES A LOT OF COURAGE TO SAY NO TO SOMETHING YOU FEEL TRAPPED IN, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO SOMETHING AS IMPORTANT AS YOUR CAREER.

I THINK IT'S SO KEY THAT SHE HAD THE CONFIDENCE TO FOLLOW HER HEART AND DO WHAT WAS BEST FOR HER. IT'S NOT ALWAYS EASY TO PUT YOURSELF FIRST, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE MARY DID JUST THAT AND LOOK AT HOW FAR SHE'S COME! I'M DEFINITELY GOING TO BE READING MORE ABOUT HER STORY - SHE'S DEFINITELY A HERO OF MINE!!!
 
I think it's awesome how Mary Earps is using her story to help others reflect on their own values and priorities 🤔. As someone who loves sports, I can imagine how tough it must have been for her to face those challenges on the pitch, but she came out stronger on the other side 💪. It's really inspiring to see someone be so honest about their doubts and fears - we all need a little reminder that it's okay to take risks and prioritize ourselves sometimes 🌈.
 
You know how back in my day, we used to watch these female footballers play for like 5 minutes without anyone talking about their feelings or whatever... 😂 it's crazy how much more open and honest everyone is now. Mary Earps' story is like that, you know? She was playing for England, but she felt trapped and couldn't express herself freely. I'm like, girl, I get it, we all feel that way sometimes 🤷‍♀️

And Sarina Wurst, her manager, she gave her the confidence to be her best self on the pitch... which is awesome! But then Mary realized she was being given the wrong message and felt like she couldn't take care of herself. I'm just so proud of her for speaking up and taking control of her own life 💪

I think what's really cool about this story is that it's not just about football, it's about being true to yourself. We all need to learn from Mary's example and remember that our values and priorities are important too 🙏
 
📰😊 I'm loving the layout of this article btw... simple yet effective. Anyway, what really resonated with me is Mary's story about self-awareness & taking risks. We all go through moments where we feel trapped or like we're not being true to ourselves. It's so inspiring that she had the courage to speak up and prioritize her own needs. 👏 It made me think about how important it is to listen to our inner voices and make changes that align with who we are, rather than just following what others want from us 💡
 
🤔 I love reading about athletes who aren't afraid to speak their minds and take control of their own lives. Mary Earps' story is like a breath of fresh air - it's so inspiring to see someone who was feeling trapped and stuck, but instead of giving up, she found the courage to be honest with herself and others. 💪 The part that really stood out to me was how Sarina Wurst initially gave her the confidence to shine on the pitch, only for Mary to realize later that the message wasn't quite right. It's like, you can give someone all the praise in the world, but if it doesn't align with their true values and needs, it's not gonna make a difference in the long run. 😊 What I think is really cool about Mary's story is how she uses it to inspire others to reflect on what's truly important to them. It's like, we're always being told to push ourselves to be better, but sometimes that can come at the cost of our own happiness and well-being. 💖
 
I'm not buying it 🤔. How can we trust this autobiography when it's based on just one person's account? What about alternative perspectives from other teammates or coaches who were involved in Mary's career? The article doesn't mention anyone else, which seems suspicious to me 🤑. And what about the timing of the book release? Is it a coincidence that it comes out now, after all these years? I'd love to see some sources from Mary's personal journal or notes that support her claims 💡. Otherwise, I'll take this story with a grain of salt ⚖️.
 
omg i'm totally obsessed with mary earps!!! 🤩 I mean can u believe she went thru all that drama w/ sarina wurst?! it's like she was stuck in a situation where she couldn't be herself on the pitch 😩 anyway i love how she finally gathered courage to speak up and prioritize her own happiness 💖 it's so inspiring! i think we all need to learn from her story and remind ourselves that our values & priorities matter 🤝

Mary's growth as a person and player is goals 🌟👏
 
I'm telling you, something fishy is going on with this autobiography thing 🤑... I mean, why did Mary decide to retire from international soccer now, after all these years? It's like she's trying to tell us something, but what? And Sarina Wurst, the manager, seems way too perfect for her own good 😏. Maybe they were playing some sort of game behind our backs? Like, what if Mary wasn't really retiring, but just needed a break from the whole team drama? And now she's out there inspiring people to be more confident and self-aware? Sounds like an agenda to me... 🤔
 
🤔 I mean, think about it... Mary's story is more than just about quitting the team or finding confidence in herself. It's like, what does it even mean to be fulfilled? Is it when you're on the pitch, scoring goals, or is it when you're being true to yourself, even if that means making a tough decision that others might not understand? 🤷‍♀️ I feel like we're so caught up in trying to fit into this societal expectation of what it means to be successful that we forget to listen to our own inner voice. And Mary's willingness to take a risk and prioritize her own needs is, like, really inspiring, you know? It makes me wonder... what would happen if more people took a step back and really examined their values and priorities? 🤯
 
Ugh, I'm actually kinda inspired by Mary's story 🤔. She took control of her career and prioritized her own happiness - it's not always easy to do that in a high-pressure field like soccer. At the same time, I can see how frustrating it must've been for her to feel trapped and not be able to express herself freely. It's like, you want to give it your all, but sometimes you gotta listen to your own gut 🤷‍♀️. I love that she's speaking out about self-awareness and confidence - we could all use a little more of that in our lives 💪. But, on the other hand, I'm also thinking about how tough it must've been for her to leave England's team behind 😔. It's like, you're giving up a huge part of yourself when you do something like that. Anyways, Mary's story is definitely making me think 🤯...
 
omg I'm so inspired by Mary's story 🤩🏆 like she went through some major growth & self-discovery stuff and it's amazing to see how she took control of her life & career 💁‍♀️ Her honesty about feeling trapped & unsure is super relatable tho - we've all felt that way at some point, right? 😂 I love how she talks about the importance of having confidence in herself & being true to her own values 🌟 it's so important for us to prioritize our own needs & desires, especially when it comes to something as big as a career. and omg Sarina Wurst sounds like an amazing manager who helped Mary realize her potential - I wanna know more about their partnership 💬
 
🤯 just read about Mary Earps' decision to leave England's national team squad and I gotta say, I'm low-key impressed by her courage 🙌. She was totally feeling trapped and needed to prioritize her own needs over the team's expectations. It's not always easy to speak up, especially in a high-pressure environment like soccer ⚽️.

I love how she's using her platform to inspire others to reflect on their values and priorities 📝. Self-awareness is key, and it sounds like Mary learned that lesson the hard way 😬. She's an awesome example of how taking control of your life and being true to yourself can lead to growth and success 💪.

I'm also loving the emphasis on confidence and risk-taking 💥. It's easy to get caught up in fear or doubt, but Mary shows us that sometimes it takes courage to step outside your comfort zone 🌈. We could all learn a thing or two from her story 👏
