Women’s soccer is growing at an unprecedented pace, yet many talented athletes still fall through the cracks between youth, college, and professional play. The system rewards short-term performance but often fails to support long-term development, wellbeing, and access.

In this episode of Invst Guru, host Jeff “fuzzy” Wenzel explores how TLH Reckoning is building a new model for women’s soccer that prioritizes people, community, and sustainable growth.

The conversation dives into the real challenges facing women’s sports today, including limited access to capital, broken development pathways, and the lack of infrastructure in non-metro and rural regions. You’ll hear how TLH Reckoning is addressing these gaps by creating a holistic ecosystem that supports athletes on and off the field.

This episode covers:

⚽ Why the traditional youth-to-college-to-pro pipeline leaves many players behind?

⚽ How community-based teams can unlock access and long-term loyalty?

⚽ The importance of player care, including mental health, workload management, and advocacy.

⚽ Why women’s sports represent a powerful investment opportunity, not a charity case?

⚽ How facilities, academies, and local partnerships drive sustainable growth?

⚽ What success looks like beyond wins, losses, and headlines?

This is a must-listen for anyone interested in women’s sports, impact-driven entrepreneurship, community ownership, or the future of athletic development.

Whether you are an investor, founder, athlete, parent, or fan, this episode offers a grounded and thoughtful look at how women’s soccer can be built differently and built better.
