1:40 Taking in the Moment with Jordan Bender: The American in Latvia

We recently sat down with Jordan Bender, a 22-year-old American soccer player now making waves in the Latvian First Tier with FK Metta. A former U20 USA national team player, Jordan's professional career began with a homegrown contract at Orlando City SC, where he played and trained alongside legends like Kaká, Nani, and Pato. His career also saw him try the jerseys of Charlotte Independence and Cape Town City in South Africa, each experience contributing to the player and person he is today.

Jordan candidly shares the ups and downs of his professional journey, discussing moments of doubt, nights contemplating quitting, and how he rekindled his love for the game. We explore topics like achieving flow state, handling outside pressures, overcoming low points and so much more. It's an inspiring and truly honest look at the resilience and passion required to thrive in professional sports. This is Episode 1:40 Taking in the Moment with Jordan Bender: The American in Latvia.
