I never imagined that saying "yes" would change my life so much. I came to the United States from Mexico, carrying more dreams than certainties, and with a huge fear that I wouldn't be able to adapt, that I wouldn't fit in. When I was asked to be the manager of a girls' team, the first thing I thought was: "How am I going to do this? I don't even know everything I'm supposed to know."But something inside me - maybe the love for my daughter, for the sport, or for learning - pushed me to give it a try. What you'll find in these pages is not the story of an expert or a perfect coach.
It's the real story of a woman who, with doubts, mistakes, and a lot of heart, achieved something she never thought possible. A story of breaking down barriers, of heartfelt hugs, of defeats that felt like victories, and of a love that was born on a softball field. Because sometimes, just daring to try can change your life more than you ever imagined.
