“If I could just fly in for camps and have holidays in between things might be different.
“It’s not just about ‘can you go for another campaign’, it’s everything in between that, that’s difficult.
“Another campaign is another two years of everything in between that and do I want to do that is the question.
“Right now, it’s like I’m leaning towards I don’t want to do that, but like I said, things can change in a heartbeat in football.
“We could go through all this, it could be major heartbreak and I could be stubborn, I know that about myself.
“We could go through this, and it could be everything I’ve always wanted and I could be like, ‘I’m not going to beat this’.
“And so we’ve got to take each day and each game and each emotion and give it the respect that it needs and go from there really.”
Fishlock started her career at Cardiff City, making her debut at the age of 16.
She made her Wales debut in 2006 and has since gone on to play for clubs in the Netherlands, Australia, Scotland, Germany, France and in the US at her current side Seattle Reign.
A mural of her was painted in July in the Llanrumney area of Cardiff where she grew up and Fishlock says her achievements so far in football have still not sunk in.
“Yeah, I would have laughed at you [if you had said I would have a mural].
“There’s no way, there’s no chance, we’re not going to have that much pedigree.
“People who have lived in Llanrumney for years, people who know our family, people who take their kids down there.
“You don’t realise really and I never thought that would be the reach of my career.
“It was never a thought process that this is what it could be or this is what the end might look like, it was just always about me doing something that I loved and then whilst doing something that I love, fighting for better environments and better treatment and more respect.
“It’s a little bit surreal really.”
The final episode of Iconic: The Rise of the Women in Red will be broadcast on BBC Radio Wales and BBC Sounds at 18:30 on Monday 21 October.
