How do you win a game that isn't built for you? How do you make lasting change when it feels like you've missed your chance? And what do you do when your wildest dreams come true?

Be, unapologetically, yourself.

If you only know one name from the Lionesses team that changed women's football forever, it's Mary Earps.
The goalkeeper playing a once overlooked position in a once overlooked game. The woman who had been told time and time again she simply was not good enough. The change-maker who stood up to sponsors and the FA to fight for what she knew was right... and won.

Mary Earps who burst into the hearts of millions with the save seen around the world. But just three years earlier it was a very different story. Dropped from the national team, unable to pay the bills, she was branded delusional and told she was finished. So, what changed? What took her from the end of the road to the top of the game? It was what she had been doing all along...

This is not another sports memoir, it's a playbook for anyone who has ever thought they don't fit in and a blueprint for success on your own terms. This is a book about the moments that change everything, and the years of hard work, tough decisions, and relentless self-belief that make them possible.

Told in Mary's inimitable voice, this is her unfiltered story, lifting the lid on the reality of being an elite female athlete in a man's world and the lessons she learned along the way. Her ride has been an exhilarating one - and her ascent to the summit of a sport the world has fallen in love with has been as tumultuous and, at times, ugly as the so-called beautiful game itself.
