Go ahead. Google me. When you do, here’s what you’ll see: First American woman to win Olympic wrestling gold … Stuns Japan’s 16-time world champion and 3-time gold medalist … Historic Olympic triumph recognized by First Lady Michelle Obama.”

And all of it is true. But there’s something even truer that you won’t see. It’s a secret. Something you can’t Google, until now.

Come close; I’ll whisper it to you…

I’m afraid.

Really good read. Proves success is not one size fits all. Especially applicable to all parents, teachers, and coaches.

that goes to show that the human mind is an incredible machine..and often we mask our flaws and imperfections but we all share some things in common...its just how we deal with these obstacles that make us individuals.This was a great story and i applaud her for coming forward and sharing. She is a true champion and for that she is fearless.
