00:00:00
as a young athlete put into the scene on
00:00:03
TV and everything at 18 years old it was
00:00:05
it was quite a lot for me and a lot of
00:00:06
people sort of seeing that and possibly
00:00:08
objectifying it at the age of 18 19 was
00:00:11
quite a tough thing to go through at
00:00:12
such a young age I remember chilling and
00:00:15
soone at the time came in and had chat
00:00:17
me and they like hey like you've got a
00:00:18
million views on YouTube and I was like
00:00:20
oh cool like of my poll warning that's
00:00:22
awesome I go on there and it's just
00:00:23
someone objectifying me on YouTube and
00:00:26
it was yeah very icky and makes me feel
00:00:28
quite uncomfortable especially from that
00:00:30
young age and then sort of as I got
00:00:31
older sort of learning how to deal with
00:00:33
that and going from being a teenager
00:00:35
into being an early 20s athlete like
00:00:37
that does change and I think getting
00:00:40
stronger more powerful slightly bigger
00:00:43
belt I struggle with that for a little
00:00:45
bit because it's not your typical female
00:00:48
body and that has had to change the view
00:00:50
and the outlook on it over time and I
00:00:52
really hope that a lot of other you know
00:00:54
girls and women are able to feel
00:00:56
confident in their body being strong
