I found this paragraph on
Instagram and it really gave me a confidence boost, and I truly hope it can do
the same for you ladies.
It's super easy to put yourself down and let
negatively make you feel weak or insecure, but it's so important to combat that
by surrounding yourself with positivity and remembering just how strong you
really are.
For me, it's as simple as hanging a quote like this up in my
bathroom so I can start my day knowing I am strong.
Find what makes you feel
powerful and stick with it.
We are all such strong and beautiful women, never
forget that!

Takeaways pertaining to TiGirls:
What is needed to reach our 'impossible': →MISSION to pursue →MENTOR to guide us →MINDSET to see us through
Define this:
→Our MISSION needs to SCARE US! →MENTORS can we anyone: friend, teammate, coaches, advisors... Someone who is willing to help us MEND ourselves. Someone who is willing to help us learn and turn our failures into SUCCESS
→A MINDSET that will move mountains (literally). A MINDSET that will fuel our insatiable hunger to succeed and reach our goals. A MINDSET that is completely UNSTOPPABLE when faced with the greatest adversity.
Next Phase:
We met as a group at the end of the spring and have the beginning of all of this. Now lets take a moment to reflect-

TiGirls! Jane here- I Found this video and thought it was super sweet. I always love listening to children because they are always completely themselves and incredibly honest. This video has children describe what love is to an illustrator. Each child describes love differently, some are scared while others are giddy! I think that we all express our love for this sport and each other differently and this video is a reminder of that. I love my TiGirls and cant wait for this season!
Side Note: This youtube channel is awesome!! Check out this video on kids eating southern food-
Here it is... the 1st blog post of the summer. Even though we are all across the country this summer we are still training, representing, and competing for our goals in the 17-18 season. It's time for all of us to have a 'gut check'. Are you #AllAboard?
