The Second Wind: Featured in Her Sports

I’m honored to be featured in Her Sports, a platform dedicated to elevating the stories of women competing at every level of sport.

This piece follows the arc of Second Wind Racing—from Coronado to Mallorca—and captures what it means to step back into elite competition at 41, while raising a family and building a business.

Highlights from the feature:

• The decision to return to Olympic-level sailing after nearly two decades

• Competing internationally again, including the Sailing Grand Slam in Mallorca

• The balance of motherhood, training, and travel

• Redefining what peak performance can look like

What makes this feature especially meaningful is the audience it reaches. This isn’t just a sailing story—it’s part of a broader conversation about women, identity, and ambition.

Because the reality is:
There isn’t a single timeline for when you’re allowed to go after something big.

And if anything, this chapter feels more focused, more intentional, and more powerful than the first.
