Style of Play with Julie Ertz & Kealia Watt

Julie Ertz, Kealia Watt

Style Of Play is more than a way of competing. It’s the purest expression of how an athlete thinks, moves, and exists both in the game and beyond it. 2x World Cup winner Julie Ertz and former NWSL star Kealia Watt bring a fresh perspective on women’s soccer, from the USWNT to the global stage, shining a light on the athletes, personalities, and moments redefining what elite looks like today. Unfiltered, fun, and full of good energy, Julie and Kealia get real about life after the game, motherhood, and raising a family with spouses who play that “other football.” Featuring stars of the pitch and special guests from across sports and entertainment, Style Of Play celebrates the game and those reshaping culture and redefining greatness in real time.

Rebecca shares stories from her career, her love for Crystal Palace, and her journey toward the dream assignment... covering the FIFA World Cup. And of course, we tackle the million-dollar question: Will Cristiano Ronaldo be in Portugal's starting XI? But first, Julie and Kealia open up about life after soccer, sharing their personal retirement journeys, the transition into motherhood, and navigating identity beyond the game. They discuss the biggest challenges of stepping away from professional sports and what it has been like watching the next generation of USWNT and NWSL stars take center stage, including the highly anticipated return of Trinity Rodman, Sophia Smith, and Mallory Swanson.
