The Space Between the Stars: Celia Jiménez on World Cups & Captaincy
In this episode of More Than an Armband, Anja sits down with Celia Jiménez — former Spanish national team captain, two-time World Cup veteran, NWSL champion with the Atlanta Pride, and now Founder and CEO of Nebula. Celia shares her remarkable journey from a small town in southern Spain where she fought for the right to compete at just six years old, all the way to the world's biggest stages in women's soccer. She opens up about what it truly means to wear the armband, how she navigated divided teams at the highest level, and why she believes peak performance is always a collective achievement — never an individual one. She also shares the leadership lessons that shaped her, from a veteran captain's pre-game pep talk before defending Marta at her first World Cup, to running fitness tests alongside a struggling teammate just to show her she wasn't alone. Now channeling everything she learned on the field into Nebula, Celia is on a mission to build better environments for women athletes everywhere. Key Takeaways: Leadership is about filling gaps, not having all the answers Checking in on a teammate takes seconds and can change everything Great teams acknowledge adversity together rather than pointing fingers Speaking different languages as a leader is the key to reaching every player Collective growth is the foundation of peak performance
