00:00I grew up in the sport of BMX racing so I'm already like a little bit out there
00:04and a little bit more male-dominated sport. I've always believed women can do
00:10anything that boys can do but yeah just when I was asked to do this I definitely
00:18my immediate response was no, no I can't do that I'm too scared and in my sport I
00:28practiced a lot of whenever I felt that fear it's actually like a sign to
00:34actually say yes you can do it and do the process and do things you can make
00:41it less scary and then go and be brave so I said yes and I'm here to do that
00:49for my daughters and yeah to be brave and show them that you can be scared and
00:55do it anyway
