As an athlete, I've always been very proud to represent the United States.
As I've gotten older and grown more independent, I think for myself, and that's how it should be.
If you have nothing in life but a good friend, you're rich.
To represent your country is an honor and a great experience.
I needed to turn off the negative voice in my head - I was psyching myself out.
When I feel like I'm in a rut, I remember it's the little things in life that are important, like riding a bike with a friend or eating ice cream with my baby niece.
