About this episode

Cynthia James interviews Diane Rose Kelly about her 'No Goalie' mindset and the impact of faith and creativity on personal and professional growth.

You don’t have to shrink to belong. You don’t have to choose just one gift. The obstacles you see? They’re not as final as you’ve been told. In this episode of Women Awakening, Cynthia James sits down with Diane Rose Kelly, visionary singer-songwriter, producer, writer, poet, speaker, and 6-time Hall of Fame athlete, to talk about the mindset behind her memoir, There Is No Goalie. Diane Rose scored 128 goals in college soccer not by being fearless, but by refusing to give the goalie her attention. That same philosophy has driven everything since: the music, the coaching, the 100+ songs, the stages shared with Gavin DeGraw, Train, and Melissa Etheridge. Diane Rose opens up about faith as a lived practice not a belief system to study, but a presence to embody. She and Cynthia share deeply personal spiritual moments and explore what it looks like when women stop waiting for permission and start leading from the inside out.You’ve been told to pick a lane, to be realistic, and to manage your expectations.
