The biggest thing is being able to share my story with others.
And so I came up with what's called the gold medal mindset.
And I do go to a lot of business leaders and I share what helped me on the field to succeed.
What is that gold medal mindset? What is that athlete mindset that then
translate into the business world? Because it's really not, it's not any different.
Welcome to Mick Unplugged, the number one podcast
for self-improvement, leadership and relentless growth.
No fluff, no filters, just hard hitting truths,
unstoppable strategies and the mindset shifts
that separate the best from the rest.
Ready to break limits? Let's go!
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another exciting episode of McUnplugged, and today we are in
for a banger. One of my favorite athletes of all times.
We're talking about a three-time Olympic gold medalist, a trailblazer in women's soccer,
and a fierce voice for equity in sport.
From dominating the pitch to shaping the next generation of leaders, she embodies resilience,
fierce leadership, and unapologetic authenticity.
Please join me in welcoming my friend,
the dominating Heather Mitzfiele. Heather, how you doing today? I love it. Thanks,
Mec. I'm great. Thanks for having me on. I'm so excited to be here. I'm the
excited one. You know, we were talking offline. Most people don't know, but well,
everybody knows I'm a Tar Heel. Everyone knows I'm a UNC Tar Heel. Most people don't realize how
dominating UNC is in women's soccer. And literally my first week on campus, I went to a UNC women's
soccer match and I have been hooked since 1996. Like literally one of my favorite sports of all
time is women's soccer and one of my favorite players of all time is women's soccer.
And one of my favorite players of all time
is Heather Mitzvili.
Heather, this is an honor.
Truly mean that.
Oh, that's so sweet of you.
You know, I think UNC is like where it all began, right?
Anson Dorrance, Nikki Gamm, Cindy Parlow,
so many greats that went there. It's a great place to fall in love with soccer, that's for sure. Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric,

Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Cedric, Ced Orange that may or may not have just won the national championship in basketball.
How did you arrive at the University of Florida?
You know, there was a couple schools that I was looking at. Florida was probably the one that
was a little further away. Becky Burley was just starting the program and she just showed me a lot of interest and I decided to go down there on
my recruiting trip and really had no intentions of going there but I was blown away kind of
by the balance, the academics and the athletics of the school and their passion for what they wanted to create.
I knew it was something new.
So that was kind of exciting for me too,
to be a part of something that's building up
from the ground.
So when I went my freshman year,
we were only in our second season
and never would have expected for it
to turn out the way that it did.
I love it. So Heather, for you, when did soccer become a passion for you?
Probably the first time I went out in the backyard with my brother.
He was 18 months younger than me and he was actually way better at soccer than I was from young
age. Was actually traveling overseas and doing it's called corber soccer so he
was going over and doing these little demonstrations. He was really technical
with the ball, great with the footwork, so we would go out in the backyard and
just have these 1v1
battles, you know, that would end up me most of the time just trying to get the
ball away from him. They would, we would, you know, always end up in a fight and
one of us heading home into the house. And I said I basically owe my brother
for the fact that not only my love of the game, but also, you know, my toughness.
I was in the backyard. I was trying to get the ball away from him. Hence why I kind of
probably gravitated towards a defensive position. I was always small, but I was always tenacious.
And so, you know, that's where it all began was in the backyard.
And that is literally why you were one
of my favorite players, right?
Like, everybody that knows me knows, like, I like gritty.
Right?
Like, you give me gritty and scrappy,
and that's me all day long.
And that was you.
Like, before saying someone was a dog was a great thing,
like, you were a dog, Heather.
Like, you were the person that, like you were the person that like,
I say set the tone defensively. Like if there were a comparable, Heather was like the Draymond Green
of women's soccer, right? Like without the technical, without the red card.
Yeah, yeah. Hard nose to putter. That was it. That was it.
Yeah. Yeah. But you sacrificed a lot too. I mean you you've overcome injuries even when people
didn't think you were going to come back from that. Like what was that drive like? Like what was that
like? I'm not giving up spirit that you had and I'm not even going to say it's proving people wrong.
It was just I think you were just proving to yourself that I'm not done right. Like what was
that like for you? Yeah, I mean I look look back on my career, I had a million injuries.
I was only 5'4", like 120 pounds soaking wet.
So I was tiny and I was playing defense against much bigger and stronger girls.
And I was a dog, you know, I was throwing my body everywhere.
So, you know, but I learned a lot about myself through those injuries.
My ACL injury was probably the biggest one. You know, it happened at a not great time.
It was right before what would have been my first ever Women's World Cup where I was starting.
I was so excited to arm an ACL. I ended up going online mistakenly and reading some of
the comments when the
announcement came out that I would not be playing and some people were like, you know,
she shouldn't have been starting anyway.
She'll never make it back, you know, when she's competing against these much younger,
much talented players.
And there's this quote, it's telling me I can't then watch you work twice, it's hard
to prove you wrong.
And I just kind of, that was it.
You know, I just kept grinding and grinding and grinding.
And really that gave me an opportunity during that break to focus more on the things that
I wasn't as good at to become more well-rounded.
Even though it was a little bit further into my career and they say you can't teach an old
dog new tricks.
It's not not true I started to focus on the things that needed
improvement in my game and then kind of when I had an opportunity to play again
it was like this is it and I knew how much the sport meant to me so I was just
I was trying to survive and get a spot and I would not only end up getting a spot but
playing every single minute of
2000 and
Eight Olympics which ended up being one of my favorite memories just because when I stood up there on the podium
It was like wow you did. Yeah, you did it. You never gave up and this is what it's all about
Yep, you know Heather. You did it, you never gave up, and this is what it's all about. Yep.
You know, Heather, I don't know personally
many three-time gold medalists, right?
Because a lot of you don't exist.
Like, it's hard to really gold medal three times, right?
In the same event, right?
Like, you know, there are different sports
where you can medal every year.
But for soccer to medal three times,
what was that experience like when you sit back
and like look back at that achievement?
Because again, there's not a lot of you that exist, right?
How's that make you feel?
You know, it's still surreal.
I actually had an event this past weekend
where I was throwing out a first
pitch at my little my both of my little son's first league or what is it it's
called it's like minor league baseball or like totally messing this up. Can you cut none of this?
I got you, I got you. Little league? Little league! why can I not remember? Oh, okay. Little League.
And I had my medals on and it was just like,
I don't take them out very often.
I don't even think about it that often
because I'm a mom now.
Like that's my main focus.
That's what I'm completely set and focused on
is just being a very present mom.
And so it's not till it's events like that
where I actually take my medals out,
but I'm like, this is pretty cool.
You know, you get to share them with the kids
and you get to show them this one's from Athens,
this one's from Beijing, this one's from London.
They all get bigger and bigger as they go.
And you know, you're reminded of that journey
because it does seem like an entire lifetime ago.
And sometimes it doesn't even seem like it existed
because it was so long ago.
That's amazing.
That's amazing.
So I have a lot of athlete friends.
And they all tell me the hardest part is knowing
when to walk away.
Because there's a lot of times when your mind is like,
I've still got it, but your body is like, no.
And then I have a couple that are like, my body was good,
but my mind was like,
I can't go through the grind of preparation.
Because people don't understand what professional athletes
said at a high level like you,
the mental grind, a lot of times is 10 times tougher
than the physical grind, just knowing the preparation
that you have to go through.
So I want you to talk about that preparation aspect first
and then I have a follow-up question.
Yeah, I mean, you're right.
It's a lot on both.
And I think the one thing that I am so grateful for
is that I always had the mental side of it.
That is what helped me to achieve my goals.
Clearly as you know, my body was probably like, please, please stop.
And eventually I knew when it was time,
it was in 2012.
And 2011 was like a really hard year for me.
It would have been my first World Cup to start and play.
I had an injury earlier in the year.
I barely made the roster.
And so after the World Cup,
they actually cut down the roster from 21 to 18.
And so I knew that my chances of making that roster were pretty slim.
And so I actually thought about retiring.
I had told a couple people that I was going to retire because I just didn't, I didn't
think I was going to make it.
And I was at the time afraid of failure.
And my husband also, we had this agreement,
like you play in one World Cup
and then we're gonna start a family.
And so I knew that's what he wanted.
I was getting older and he knew I wasn't ready.
And so he said, all right, give it a go.
And so from that moment on, I just, I did everything. I made that
team. Luckily, we won gold. And so then when I stood up there in
that podium one last time, I was just like, we did it. This is
everything that I ever dreamed of. And now I can walk away on
my own terms, I can start of and now I can walk away on my own terms.
I can start a family.
I can do whatever's next.
I know how fortunate I am because I know a lot of athletes don't get to do that.
But I'm so thankful for the opportunity to have been given by those coaches to even be
on that roster for my teammates to help me win that gold
You know, it's
It's a dream come true. I love it. I love it
So then you kind of answer my follow-up, which was I was gonna ask you
How did you know officially it was time and like no looking back like line of the sand? I'm retired
I'm moving forward a lot of it had to do with my age. Yeah. You know it's
it's tough I think even tougher being a female because for me I I knew had a lot
of teammates that could do the juggle but I I knew I didn't want to and I just knew how tough it would be.
So I knew when the time was for me to come to an end.
And I think it helped that my body just wasn't cooperating at the end.
I was just doing everything just to kind of manage to even get on the field half the time. So all the stars were aligning
and I knew when it was time to walk away.
Love it.
So again, things that I always say,
you retire from the sport,
you don't retire from being an athlete.
Right. Right.
Like, there is still an athlete through and through.
The dog mentality is still there.
You took that very well into business and leadership and now being a sports
nut, I tell folks all the time, the parallel between sports and leadership
is so strong and dynamic because if you were a leader of your team, leader
doesn't mean the most popular leader doesn't mean the highest score that usually the fancy in every locker room in every field and every team in
every huddle there's a leader and I know that you were that how did you take
those skill sets and then transform them out of sport into the business world you
know I think the biggest thing is being able to share my story with
others and and so I came up with what's called the gold medal mindset and I do
go to a lot of business leaders and I share what helped me on the field to
succeed. What is that gold medal mindset? What is that athlete mindset that then
can then translate
into the business world?
Cause it's really not, it's not any different.
Right.
You're doing the same thing and it does come down
to mentality, but I think it comes down
to giving yourself permission to imagine a positive outcome,
to dream and even figuring out with that dream,
those a lot of times we think we dream as kids,
but we have to continue to dream as adults
and to set our goals.
Set our goals high, make them scary and unattainable,
what they seem like, because then you're to be surprised.
I did that when I was playing soccer
and I achieved all my dreams. And then I had to be surprised. I did that when I was playing soccer and I achieved all my dreams
and then I had to set new ones
because we all need to continue
to dream throughout our lifetime.
And learning what you can control
because in this crazy world that we all live in,
in the business world,
there's things that are completely
out of our control all the time.
But instead of focusing on those things,
figure out what can I control?
And then you're surrounding yourself with positive people.
They say we are the some of the five people
that we spend the most time with.
And that blows my mind.
Because at one point in my life, my five were great,
but now they are amazing.
And I feel like once I went to college,
I found those athletes around me that were just driven
and successful and positive and caring.
And so I learned that that was helping me to become a better,
not only athlete, but a better person.
And that's something that we all need to continue
to try to focus on is who those five people are,
because they have a big influence
on our lives every single day.
Totally agree.
And I believe in checking those five
on a recurring basis too, right?
Like I'm always leveling up.
And so sometimes, you know, one or two of the current five,
I need to move this five over
and go attain a little bit more.
But Heather, like I just, I learned something
I wanna unpack a little bit
because as your biggest fan in the world,
I didn't know that your five wasn't always good.
So let's talk about that.
Let's go back in time a little bit.
So tell me about, tell me about that, Heather.
Thanks.
Yeah, how do I say it? My dad always used to say I'm the reason that he had gray hair
and very little of it later.
I was a handful in high school. I really was.
I was not hanging out with a great group of kids. My parents divorced and I think
that was very hard and I just was trying to kind of navigate that whole thing and I wasn't handling
it correctly and I wasn't motivated. I was cruising on my natural ability but I wasn't motivated. You know, I was cruising on my natural ability, but
I wasn't surrounding myself with positive people. And it wasn't until one of my best
friends in high school ended up dying in a car crash. Because he's under the influence that I realized that that could have been me, that
I could have been in the car, you know, and so that really kind of was like my aha moment.
I think losing someone that's really close to you at such a young age is, is it's a wake
up call perspective, right?
We can choose the right choices or the wrong choices.
And it's up to us every single day.
It's positive or negative. And luckily, you know, by going away to the University of Florida,
I went away from those friends. And I look back on it, I realized that soccer saved me,
you know, it gave me something to focus on that I was really darn good at,
and that I really hadn't been putting in my all in it.
And so it gave me an opportunity to kinda refocus.
And here I am.
And I'm glad you're here.
Totally glad that you're here.
So let's fast forward now to the gold medal mindset.
What are a couple of pillars to the gold medal mindset. What are a couple of pillars
of the gold medal mindset? I kind of went through two of them giving yourself a permission to imagine
a positive outcome to dream. Learning what you can control surrounding yourself with those positive
people that we talked about. I think finding a great coach or a mentor or taking a class
to kind of get you ahead and be surrounded by those people
that have been through it, that want to help you succeed
and maybe see something special in you
that you might not even see in yourself.
Figure out what makes you unique and hone that skill so you become known for it.
I think a lot of times we're into comparing ourselves when instead we should be focusing
on us and how we can be the best version of ourselves.
Demand more of yourself because who else is going to do it?
And don't ever stop until you're successful.
That's it. I love that. I love that. That parallels into a couple of things that
are my pillage, right? So I have seven but the two of my favorite and I picked
these up from sport is a great leader knows their team better than their team
knows themselves, right? Meaning you know how they think, you know the right positions to put them in and
you set them up for success by knowing them better than they know themselves.
And then the second thing that I think all great leaders do, and I got this from
Angelo Dundee, Muhammad Ali's trainer.
They know when to move the stool, meaning Ali was tired.
It was round 12. He was struggling. His opponent was struggling.
And Dundee made Ali stand up in between that round and said, face your opponent. And Ali
was like, where are you doing? And he said, if he sees that you're willing to stand up
and take this, right, then all of a sudden his mind is not on the fight anymore. It's
how are you doing it?
And then also by moving the stool,
he made Ali do something he didn't think he could do.
And I think that's a great leader.
A great leader knows when to make Heather
stand on her own a little bit.
Knows when to make Heather face that adversity,
to face that challenge head on,
because it's real easy to sit down.
It's real easy to, hey, I need a timeout.
Sometimes in life and sometimes in business,
you don't get that timeout.
And so again, things that I've learned from watching you,
my scrappy one over there,
and I put that into my pillars is like,
knowing when to move the stool.
Cause I feel like that's the lesson you learn as well too.
Yeah, I love those.
Those are great.
Yeah, yeah.
So let's talk a little bit about family for you now.
So, you know, you've got an amazing family.
AJ, you know, I'm a Patriot fan,
so, you know, there was a little bit of time,
AJ and I couldn't quite get along.
He played for another team that, you know,
we didn't like each other, but what's family life?
What's mom and wife Heather like?
You know, ugh, how can I like teary-eyed?
It's like the greatest, the greatest gift.
You know, I think about it all the time, how lucky I am.
You know, from the minute I had my first son,
I just feel like my life completely changed.
I was opened up to this different perspective
on just everything when someone depends on you.
And you have this opportunity to lead.
We're talking about leading.
I think there's no greater gift.
And so you learn a lot about yourself.
I've changed a lot, a lot through becoming a mom.
What I thought I was gonna be like as a mom
is not who I am as a mom.
I think I'm more tender now than I've ever been.
You know, I was always like that fight mentality,
the hustle, all those things.
And you know, it has definitely just softened me up
and trying to figure out the different personalities.
I have three kids.
So I have an 11 year old boy. I have a nine year old daughter, and I have a six year old son.
I'm just trying to figure out the best ways to connect with each one of them
personally and with their personalities and just to be extremely present. But I
also take lessons from both of my parents, you know, the things
that I loved about them and I try to incorporate into who I am and then say the things that
maybe I didn't think resonated as well. And just try to make sure that I'm doing a better
job of guiding my kids.
I love it. I love it.
Do you ever have that moment, I'm sure you do,
as a parent where it's like, why did you do that?
And then you realize, oh, I probably did that too.
I definitely did it.
You know, that's the funny part is, you know,
I see a lot of them in me.
And so they probably do get away with a little bit more because I'm like, you know, I turned
out the way I did.
Like, it's all a part of the journey.
So we're just kind of there to help them along, you know, and I want them to become their
own person.
I want them to be completely confident in who they are, to love them no matter what. So
it's a lot of fun. Yeah, I love it. So my next question, I'll make unplugged. I like to talk about
your because, that thing that's deeper than your why, right? Like I know your children are your why,
are your why, but it's the but why, it's the because, right?
So brilliant athlete, amazing mother, amazing spouse,
amazing speaker and leader, but what's your because?
Because we get one chance, you know, we get one chance on this earth to make an impact.
And there's no other way to do it than just to do your best and to try to live the most positive life that you can in the time that we have on this planet.
You know, my dad and I had an amazing relationship and he unfortunately passed off Alzheimer's
almost three years ago.
And so kind of watching his decline, he was the most amazing man, super smart, cardiovascular surgeon,
worked his whole entire life for his family, but never really got to do the things at the
end that he always wanted to do. So I think I realized from him that our choices that we make every single day make a difference and
you know to take advantage of the time we have you know take the trip do the
things that you've been saying you wanted to do but you you just never had
the time to do it make time for it so just making the most of every minute, every day.
Amazing, totally amazing.
You know, another reason, Heather,
that I'm a huge fan of yours,
aside from playing the sport,
you're a huge, huge, huge advocate for equity
in not only sport, but also in business and in leadership.
And I don't need to ask how or why
that became a passion for you because I know that answer.
But talk to us about the fight that needs
to continue to happen for equity.
Yeah, I mean, we've just still got a long way to go.
It's night and day, what I experienced when I was playing
and I love to see the growth but it's just it's still not where it needs to be and you know I what I love the
most is that there's so many women that are so passionate about this so many of
my former teammates so many just friends so's, it's at the forefront and you know, it's a major topic and we're
all invested and so I know it's only a matter of time, but we still have
more work to be done.
Amazing.
And whatever Heather, not me, this for my soul, whatever I can do.
Don't ask you just tell me and literally consider it done.
Absolutely. All right. You ready for for your hot five Heather? Oh gosh. Hot five. You ready? Uh-huh.
question one it's a cheat day cheat meal what's your what's your cheat meal?
Handle's ice cream. Handle's ice cream. Yeah it's the best though so when you
come in Tylenol I'll treat you to it.
Flavor?
I'm usually pretty boring.
I do raspberry with chocolate sprinkles on a cone.
Okay, I can dig that.
I can dig that.
It's your P.B.
Mom Heather, it's time to cook a meal.
What's your go-to meal that you're cooking?
Probably meatballs.
Ooh.
Easy, everybody likes it.
That's the hardest thing when your mom is like
getting one meal that everybody's gonna like.
That's a crowd pleaser.
So that's my go-to.
I'm there for meatballs.
All right. That's one of my top five. Well, it's in the handles ice cream so that's my go-to. I'm there for meatballs. All right.
That's one of my top five.
Wellesley handles ice cream.
Next time you're in town.
I mean, not together, but.
Well, one, you know, what's your meatballs first?
Just messing with you.
Toughest player you had to defend and why?
Cindy Parlow.
I'm not just saying that because she went to UNC. Literally the
toughest player. I would say even more so than Abby Wambach. So obviously I had to
go against Abby a lot throughout my playing career being at University of
Florida together. I think I kind of learned the ways against Abby,
but Cindy, there was no one,
nobody else I would rather not defend than Cindy.
She was.
She was physical.
She was fierce.
Quick, yeah.
Oh, I'm having flashbacks.
Back to those UNC days.
Oh yeah.
Those UNC days.
All right, so putting you on the spot with this question, because everybody's listening. flashbacks back to those UNC days. Those UNC days.
All right, so putting you on the spot with this question,
because everybody's listening,
your favorite teammate of all time and why?
This is a hard one.
Uh-huh.
I've had so many.
I mean, I'd have to go back to college.
Those girls are still my best friends to this day.
So what we built at the University of Florida,
what we achieved by winning the national championship,
still one of my best friends, I would say Sarah Yoey.
Okay, Sarah, I like that, I like that.
All right, last question for you, Heather.
The book of Heather Mittfeili has been written.
The last chapter, the last paragraph,
how does Heather wanna be remembered?
As someone who
lived vigaciously,
who was authentic, passionate, loving,
and made an impact on this planet.
Love it. Absolutely love it.
All right, Heather, how can people follow and find you?
And before we do that piece, shout out to Rose at Players for Good.
Rose is the best.
How can people book you to speak? Because if you haven't heard Heather speak,
one, you're lost. But two, the energy, the passion,
like it is what you want. So how can people book you to speak first and foremost?
Well, if you go to players for
good, they have all of us listed including you Mick. So we're all there and that's the best place
on social media which I'm you know not that busy these days on, since I'm so busy with my kids.
I was gonna say, you're at Little League all day every day.
My main places that I'm active are on Instagram,
HMits2, and on Facebook, HeatherMitsFanPage.
There you go.
Heather, I know how busy you are,
but like I told you when we first started,
this means the world to me.
One of my, you know, Cindy is my favorite soccer player of all time, but my number two was having Ritz, I promise you.
You've been up there. All right, I love it.
No, you were my number two. Even Mia went to UNC, but she was there before I got there.
So, you know, Mia's number three. You you were number two. And I mean that sincerely.
Wow.
The true honor.
Thank you so much.
Absolutely.
I really enjoyed our time today.
I did too.
Anytime you want to be on, you just tell me.
And again, I mean this from my soul.
Whatever you need, whenever you need from me, consider it done.
You're an advocate.
Thank you for your time, for having me on,
for everything that you do. You're an amazing man. You got it and for all the
viewers and listeners remember your because is your superpower. Go unleash it.
