Pursuing My CBF A License in Brazil: A Journey with Incredible Supporters

I’m currently in Brazil working on my CBF A Coaching License, taking another important step in my coaching journey. This process has been both challenging and rewarding, and I’m grateful to have amazing people supporting me along the way.

Edu Pontes has been with me since 2011, and his dedication to women’s soccer in Brazil is unmatched. He has been one of the biggest supporters of the women’s game, always pushing for progress and better opportunities.

Nathan Bahia and Ednei, two former professional players, came into my life last year when we were all working on our CBF B License together. Since then, they’ve become more than colleagues—they are great friends and key supporters, always pushing me to be better.

Having male allies in the growth of women’s sports is essential for achieving real equity. Their support and commitment to the development of the women’s game inspire me, and I hope more men follow their example in helping build a more inclusive and fair sports environment.

I’m excited about this next phase of my coaching career and grateful for the people who believe in this journey with me!
