We had two goals...One was to cherish every moment together, cherish the journey because the journey allows you to learn and grow. The other was to win a gold medal.

I want to be efficient and effective in everything I do. I start every day with a protein shake, with my vanilla Almond Breeze, and my kids start their day the same way as well. [Nutrition] is a huge piece of the puzzle. It's not just about working hard and being physical. It's about being smart and mindful of what's going in and out of our bodies. And also taking the time to enjoy things, and to appreciate the process.

I switched from indoor to beach I had been playing indoor for 12 years. And, to be honest, to make a living indoors you have to go overseas. I am such a family girl and just wanted to be home, so that didn't appeal to me.

I love that our sport is sexy. I think it is appropriately so.

I think the hard part is over. Now it's time for us to play.

I want our kids to know that we have to feel our bodies. And nutrition is a huge part of that.

I firmly believe that when you have a foundation of respect, love of what you're doing, and a shared vision, so much is possible.
