It's rewarding to know that I have young people in the gym who have the same goals as I had, and now I can help them reach those goals.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I like to tell young people to work hard for your goals and live in the moment.
That's pretty rewarding in itself coming from where I started. Obviously the next goal for me is to make the Olympic team.
Goals enable you to do more for yourself and others, too.
Other people's success spurs me on to do well and gives me motivation.
I realized I love motivating and I love empowering and I love inspiring people. I did that as an athlete for 18 years, and I am able to do that as a motivational speaker now as well as doing work on television.
I sat down with my trainers to check my past seasons and to see what could be done to keep me motivated and in good shape. I had to find a new motivation, a new momentum.
I'm not in the best shape, but I want to prove to myself I can do something that seems insurmountable and inspire others by showing them no matter where they are in their fitness goals, they can do it, too.
Even though I am extremely blessed to have accomplished many of my goals at such a young age, I am still reaching, still striving.
The young guys keep me motivated. Youngsters coming up behind me.
I have always let my motivation guide me, and that has served me well. Climbing has taught me how to thrive and created a life that I feel incredibly lucky to have.
