So I think all of those things are kind of what may be.
made me a little different the combination of those things no one thing over the other but set me apart from some of my peers you're the right woman for the job when it came along that's what it is it's really like the universe put you in that position because most people wouldn't be as uniquely disciplined about chasing this down as you are
Like there's always something.
There's always some story.
There's always someone.
Actually, I know you're similar, right?
Where like the messages I get daily from parents, from coaches, from young female athletes who this is happening to, who they don't know what to do.
I should talk to the girl.
I don't know if you saw this video.
It was the basketball game in Massachusetts recently where you've got this like six foot something guy who injured three girls before halftime of this game, causing the team to have to forfeit because they didn't have enough players left to play the game.
Talking with this team and this girl, like she's 13 years old and she's getting pummeled to the ground by this guy.
And she's online reading the comments and stuff, which I never advise, but she is.
And there's people calling, you know, this girl a wuss and saying that she's being a baby and she's fine.
And she reads that and it's really hard for her.
Guarantee those people don't play sports.
