Show Notes
Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson East was 20 years old and a star gymnast when she decided to leave her sport in 2012. More than a decade later, she experienced the Olympics in Paris with kids and to her – it was better than any gold medal. Shawn joins the Bright Side to talk about what life has been like in her current chapter of marriage and motherhood and how retiring led her to see herself as someone who has value outside of gymnastics.
