For Flau’jae, her redefined perspective made her embrace more meaningful goals.

“Success for me is waking up every day doing what I love to do at a high level,” Johnson said. “I always knew that I would be here but now that I got older, my perspective kind of changed. So I would just say be a dreamer. I've always been a dreamer.”
