And I was like, I'm so proud of you for your composure.
You just saved a lot of kids down the line.
There's a 10-year-old and a 15-year-old who learned more from you in that interview than they did by watching you on the ice.
That's the human trick, is composure under pressure.
And she's really saying the right things.
She specifically said, I don't evaluate my performance by the outcome.
I evaluate it by what it feels like and what the process leading up to it has been.
I mean, that is like the healthiest attitude you could possibly have.
So, Alana Myers-Taylor is my person.
I mean, she has two young children.
They are both deaf.
And one of them has Down syndrome.
And in December, she was texting her husband saying, I don't think that this is where I should be.
I don't think I can do this.
And then two months later, she's wearing the gold and signing to her children, I did this.
I did it.
I mean, that is what I live for.
That is like my perfect story is a mom who didn't cut herself off, who didn't like put herself in a cage and say, this is as big as I'm allowed to be.
And then gets that moment of connection with her kid where it's like, I did it.
Because I want kids to see adults having great lives.
