Portuguese footballer Jéssica Silva is in the midst of the best season of her career, helping Portugal secure their first-ever Women’s World Championship bid when an unexpected and tragic personal loss changes everything. The loss forces Silva to take necessary time away from the sport and instead spend it with who she does it all for: her family.

Our series What Are You Working On uncovers the works in progress happening around the world as athletes navigate journeys in and beyond their sport. This season, we follow Portuguese football star Jéssica Silva as she works to balance leading her team to a historic win, without losing herself.
