She’s traded textbooks for sun, sand, and Spanish—making her pro softball debut just days after graduating college. But as always, nothing’s ever that smooth. From dragging furniture down three flights of stairs to gate-hopping with a U-Haul in a sketchy neighborhood, Rusty relives the chaos of Lacie’s post-grad move-out.
Now in San Juan, Lacie opens up about the culture shock, the loneliness, and the curveballs of adjusting to a brand new life with a team where English is not the first language. And right in the middle of the episode? Her coach texts: “Be ready in 5.” You’ll hear her bolt mid-recording. Real life, real time.
Rusty wraps it up with reflections on Lacie’s growth, her rough junior year, and why being “uncomfortable” might be the best gift she could get right now.
