Um and just kind of pulling yourself back in and you have to realize why you're doing this , why you keep playing , you're not playing for the success of it all you're playing for yourself . Um So I think that was definitely a challenge . I think injury has been a huge part of just my entire career .
If I was happy , I wanted to get on the field . Um So finding other things that motivate you through life to just keep going other than your sport , I think that was just a really tough challenge for me . And honestly , something that I'm still working on today , injury is always gonna happen .
Um , confidence can make or break your game . Um , confidence can rise or fall just based on outside factors , which is something that I realized a lot this year . Um So I think that just making sure you're mentally sound before you're putting your role in the fields .
Um just realizing there's more so recruitment was definitely a tough , it was a really tough time and I even see I have two younger sisters that are going through one of them just ended their process and the other one's just beginning it um recruitment process . It's , it's , it's a long hard process that you're questioning a lot about yourself . You're questioning a lot about your worth .
I had recur reoccurring ankle sprains since I was 11 years old . Um And struggling with that was i it's one of the hardest things is coming back from injury . Um Just the mental aspect of it having to take time off from like the thing that for some people and for me , it was one of the things that truly like was my drive through life .
