Even Though I Was Painted, Even Though

There Have Been Times In My Adolescence Where I Gave Up. I Was Like, 'i'm Just Never Going To Be Pretty. I'm Never Going To Be Like One Of Those People On The Front Of Magazines.' It Always Seemed Really Strange To Me That The Projection Of How People Are In Advertisements Looked Nothing Like The People Who Were Actually Buying Them. You Know What I Mean? I Never Understood That Mismatch, And Now I Really Start To See That The People You See In The Media Are A Lot More Like People Actually Are.

Whenever People Call Me The First Female This Or That, It Doesn't Make It More Special Because No One In Front Of Me Wanted The Same Job. I've Always Wanted Weird Stuff And Enjoyed Things Differently Than Other Girls.

In Mma It’s A Lot Less Intimidating Because It’s Not Like You Get One Shot At A Title Every Four Years. You Get A Title Shot Every Couple Of Months ... With The Olympics, You Don’t Always Have This, So There Is So Much More Pressure Involved.

It's Your Purpose To Leave The World Better Than How You Found It.
