Midge Purce has never been afraid to speak her mind.
The Gotham FC star joins Portfolio Players to discuss the business of women’s soccer, player advocacy, and the future of the NWSL. Purce shares candid thoughts on the league’s proposed schedule shift, why she believes players should have more leverage in negotiations, and her criticism of the so-called Trinity Rodman Rule.
She also discusses launching her new Vox Media podcast, Confessions of an Elite Athlete, producing the viral Off Season series with Alexis Ohanian, the growth of women’s soccer ahead of the 2026 World Cup, and what comes next both on and off the field.
Portfolio Players, presented by E*TRADE from Morgan Stanley, explores how institutional capital, cultural momentum, and strategic ownership are redefining the business of sports.
