On this episode of the podcast, Amanda Head talks with two-time FIFA World Cup Champion and Brazilian soccer star Paulo Silas Pereira for a powerful conversation about perseverance, faith, and life beyond the game.

Pereira reflects on his journey from growing up in Campinas, Brazil, alongside six sisters and three brothers, to becoming an international football star who played for legendary clubs including São Paulo FC, Sporting CP, and San Lorenzo de Almagro. He opens up about the influence of his parents, the heartbreak of losing both his mother and father, and the values that carried him through every stage of life and competition.

The conversation also dives into Silas’ transition from player to coach, his perspective on leadership and discipline, and the inspiration behind his new book, "Beyond Success," which explores the pursuit of goals, God, and glory. Plus, Silas shares his thoughts and predictions for the next FIFA World Cup and what today’s athletes are missing when success becomes disconnected from purpose.
