Women Can Be Mothers And Athletes At The Same Time
Kimmy Fasani hopes that her pregnancy will reassure other female athletes that they don’t need to put their careers on hold to start a family.
“I am just hoping to shine a light on female athletes and our collective ability to remain ‘athletes’ while we transition into moms (if we want to). My hope is that by sharing my experiences publicly it will help other women and brands understand that this can be an option and we shouldn’t have to feel like we need to walk away from our careers to do so,” she said.
Even if female athletes retire to raise a family, athletics still play a huge role their lives.
