Period.
〰️ no one should be criticized for taking a break/pulling out competitions or speaking out for their mental health.
〰️ Over the years we've watched several athletes speak up and advocate for balance in sports and to see another great being criticized for HER choice is truly upsetting. Athletes are human too.
For all working in sports, athletes, and to everyone,
YOUR MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS!
please take care of yourself and know when to step away.
