Ep. #142 From Winning Gold Medals To Working With Gainbridge: Briana Scurry’s Mission To Empower the Next Generation, ft. Briana Scurry

by Caroline Fitzgerald April 8, 2025

In episode #142 of 🎙️The Business Case For Women’s Sports, presented by Ally, Caroline interviews U.S. soccer legend Briana Scurry.

One of the original 99ers, Briana helped cement the USWNT as one of the greatest American sports teams of all time — winning the 1999 World Cup and earning two Olympic gold medals with the team.

Off the field, Briana’s story is just as powerful — from facing a career-ending injury and financial hardship to becoming an outspoken advocate for mental health, concussion awareness, and financial empowerment for women athletes.

Now, she’s joining Caitlin Clark, Billie Jean King, and Annika Sörenstam as a Gainbridge ambassador to help financially empower the current and next generation of female athletes.

In this episode, Briana shares:

🧠 How the end of her soccer career nearly cost her everything — including her gold medals.
💵 Why she’s on a mission to teach athletes about financial wellness.
⚽️ What her new partnership with Gainbridge means for the future of women’s sports.
📢 Why investing in women’s sports is a business opportunity and a responsibility.
