So that's when we decided to have a baby. And then I did feel good and I missed it when I was pregnant. So I came back, played in the Olympics that was delayed a year and then the World Cup in 23. And at that point, I was just like, I don't know that there's much more that I can give. And I don't know that there's much more that I'm going to get. I've fulfilled everything I've wanted to do.

I'm at a point now where there's a lot of other things that interest me. I'm building businesses off the field. I'm really busy. And... we're settled in San Diego and we're so happy. So throughout the off season, I was this last off season. I was like, okay, this is going to be my last year, I think.

And then me and my husband had like two bottles of wine one night and we just like, I just was super honest. And I think it was just like an epiphany. I was like, yeah, this is, this is it. Like, this is the last year, like regardless of what happens, I want to go, of course, I want to try to go to Olympics. I want to try to win a championship.

I want to do all the things, but it doesn't really matter what happens throughout the season. I'm done no matter what. Um, so I kind of just made that like commitment to myself. Um, And, you know, a lot of things didn't go planned. Baby also being part of that. It's weird to say I got knocked up after being with my husband for 17 years.

Yeah, it did definitely feel like I was trying to take in every moment and remember the small things a little bit more. And it's hard to say enjoy them more because I feel like I was in a constant state of stress and anxiety just with the two teams and anxiety.
