I want people to stop saying “just go to therapy” as if therapy is cheap, as if it’s easy to find a therapist you’re compatible with, as if there isn’t cultural baggage/stigma tied to therapy.
Let’s make therapy more affordable/accessible before we chastise people for not going

Just me being emotional as hell and over sharing on TV 😭😭😭
Few words can describe the emotion from @annacockrell48 after qualifying for the #TokyoOlympics.
So, turn the sound on, listen, and celebrate her. #TrackFieldTrials21

Y’all see the smile, but you don’t know the full story. For the majority of this year, I’ve been depressed. This is my truth.
#USCGrad @AnnaCockrell48 opened up about her journey in a moving speech at Student-Athlete Graduation. #FightOn

On a serious note though, im feeling overwhelmed with gratitude and overwhelmed by the love and support being sent my way. Winning both 100mh and 400mh has been a dream for so long. Realizing it is surreal

Delayed but just wanna express my deepest gratitude to everyone @GoTrackTownUSA who worked so hard to make NCAAs and Trials happen. Everyone—volunteers, officials, camera crew, etc.—was so professional & friendly. It’s not the facilities that make Hayward magical, it’s the people

USC Black student-athletes & allies have come together to form a new organization called the UBSAA. Today, on behalf of our org, I emailed this statement to @USC_mikebohn . Black athletes will not be silent, and @USC_Athletics needs to change.

So honored. This was the best academic year I ever had because I actually set healthy boundaries, asked for help when I needed it. Very thankful to my MPP cohort and practicum group
Congratulations to @AnnaCockrell48 on being named the 2021 @CoSIDAAcadAA Women’s Track & Field Team Member of the Year!
Another accomplishment to add to the Olympian’s long list.

My grandma was on the phone and said “my granddaughter came visit me before she go back and… do whatever” and it will forever crack me up that she really has no idea what running professionally means 😂😭

Since my 2019 grad speech, I've gotten a lot of questions about the journey to that moment. It took a a lot to get there and I've come a long way since then. This is my story. @PlayersTribune

It’s v weird when grown adults with massive platforms choose to use that platform to whine about being blocked on Twitter??? Like Naomi is allowed to block negative people
Poor @naomiosaka blocked me while taking a shot at me (guess she’s only tough on the courts). She is apparently arguing that she shot her many covers b/4 publicly claiming she was too socially anxious to deal w/press. Truth is she just doesn’t like Qs she can’t control. Admit it.

Walked around the village for ~20 minutes today and let it all sink in. Really unbelievable and got a little emotional about all of this.
(I am a cancer moon so I'm always emotional but still)

People always ask me what’s so special about being a Trojan. It’s hard to put in words, but this video will give you a little taste ✌🏾
5⃣0⃣ All-Americans.
1⃣2⃣ NCAA Individual Titles.
7⃣ Conference Championships.
2⃣ National Championships.
Just another YEAR IN TROY! #FightOn

Hi time to overshare: I’m back in therapy & it’s been great & I’m so thankful I have a therapist that has already helped me so much in a pretty short period
when I reflect on how transformative therapy has been for me it makes me upset that it’s inaccessible for many in the US

Deanna is the heart and soul of this team. Constantly motivating us, working crazy hard, and always there when someone needs her. I wouldn’t have been able to handle this year without her. I’m gonna miss her so much, but I know she’ll find success no matter where life takes her
USC senior Deanna Hill helped lead USC to the 2018 NCAA T&F team title by being the only athlete to earn 4 All-America honors at the meet. Hill scored in the 100m, 200m, 4x100m & won with the 4x400m relay, clinching the meet. Hill is now retiring to pursue medical school.

So so proud of this project and of USC Athletics for not only listening to Black student athletes, but also following through with tangible actions!!
This year’s student-athlete backpack, inspired by the #BlackLivesMatter movement, was designed by student-athletes Candice Denny, Anna Cockrell and John Thomas, in conjunction with the Trojan Athletic Senate, United Black Student-Athlete Association and AD Mike Bohn. #FightOn

Thinking a lot about Naomi Osaka & wishing her rest & healing. After talking about my depression, it became a topic in every interview & started to feel traumatizing to discuss. She’s on a WAY bigger stage, can’t imagine what she’s feeling
Black girls deserve peace

It’s time for universities to be more responsive to Black student athletes and the Black community at large. I PROMISE every Black NCAA athlete has a story about a racist fan, booster, professor, teammate or coach. Colleges and athletic departments gotta step up

I hope y’all are doing well. There’s lots of confusing/frightening/stressful stuff in the world & it’s okay to have an emotional response. Personally the last month was pretty rough for me but I’m better now. I got a milk frother & a weighted blanket & they bring me small joys

Aye in 2019 let’s focus on taking better care of ourselves. Let’s forgive ourselves when we make mistakes, be honest about our feelings, and stop comparing ourselves to others

This is a kinda random observation but there’s quite a few people with disabilities (physical disabilities, Deaf people, etc.) working Trials and that’s really cool

Idk maybe the existential “threat” to women’s sports isn’t trans women but a lack of funding, a lack of easily accessibly coverage, and disrespect for the women playing them
