The best interview on the internet from a player that was "killing it" when she retired. Thank you for sharing your life, struggles and education not taught in a classroom, but lived. You are an inspiration for "humans" Mrs Holiday.

Lauren and Jrue’s children are the sweetest. I always admired Lauren for how she approached football and the pitch. This interview gives me such a more holistic viewpoint of Lauren.

I always felt like Lauren could have played longer, but I respect her decision to retire early. I view her as an even better person than a player. Great interview....

So happy Lauren Holiday had successful surgery. It's families like her and Jrue who provide the real basis of stability and also hope for human society.

Lauren Holiday aka Cheney one of the most underrated players to play and sad to see her retire so soon but understand why. God had a plan and she is such an inspiration. One of my favorite players of all time.

God bless Lauren for having the strength to fight the tumor. But I was crushed and looking for Lauren only to find out she changed her name to Holiday.. She was a with that amazing class of womens soccer that won those gold cups and medals.. just think how much better Alex Morgan and those guys would've been if she was able to hang around.

God gave the surgeon the ability, intellect, and calm under pressure to perform at a high level. The big man upstairs always gives and takes away

You realize she can praise both right? You think just because she praised God means she didn't praise/thank the surgeon?

It's unfortunate that many athletes don't see themselves as employees in the way that the average person is an employee. If any employee is let go from their job, there is no special treatment or exceptions made. I know that I wish that I had the opportunity to lobby for additional assistance when I have had to look for another job.

I totally agree! Her personal story is great and I respect her perseverance, but I’m not skipping over the way she doesn’t seem to admire Drew the way he admires her.
