I hate the cliche of 'just have fun,' but what I've seen in today's sports, especially with parents, is they put so much pressure on the kids.

Nobody really knows who I am, where I came from, what's in my heart, why I believe in the things I believe, what I see behind the scenes and they don't see.

A lot of people think I'm naturally confident. I am not naturally confident!

I put all of my energy into building the game and giving women opportunities and, to put everything into it and then to be deemed selfish or not a good team player or outspoken, it's been hard. But at the same time, I'm going to get the critics and I know that.

I try to live my life one day at a time, and if I look too far in advance, I get really stressed.

I still don't buy the idea that I'm a 'sex symbol.'

My life goes in four-year cycles. The World Cup is every four years and the Olympics are every four years.
