I'm never just on the couch. Being busy is part of who I am. But it's hard juggling my family, my husband, balancing that time.

I think it's important to keep things positive. Sometimes you don't win, and that sucks, and you work on improving.

When I prepare for a match, it's like work, even the way I have to shower and put on my makeup.

I don't want to say names, but there are certain companies I won't work with because of previous people they've worked with. I don't want to be put in the same category as another athlete that I don't necessarily think is a good role model.

It's great to see women standing up in their own line of work and fighting for fair value.

Social media has come a long way. With the good has come some bad, and you always have a lot of people hiding behind their computers and being very critical of what you do on and off the field, of what you tweet, of what you say, of everything you do.
