Episode Details

What happens when the identity you built as an athlete shifts into something completely different - partner, mother, creator?

Seliana Sainristil (formerly Carvalho) knows that transition firsthand. A former collegiate soccer player at American International College turned NFL wife, mother of two, and content creator, Seliana has navigated identity shifts most people never see behind the highlight reel. In this episode, she gets real about what life as an NFL wife actually looks like, how motherhood reshaped her sense of self, and how she's building a homesteading and content creation journey on her own terms.

Whether you're navigating a career pivot, a life transition, or trying to figure out who you are outside of a title - this one's for you.
