One of her fans asked her a question about whether her life goals changed after giving birth to her son. To which, Azarenka replied that since welcoming Leo into her life, she has started prioritizing less and is always busy with her son's well-being and his schedule.

"Absolutely, and a lot of I would say my things that I believed in as well. One of the biggest changes was for me how much myself started to be less of a priority in kind of everything and Leo's well-being and even his schedule and everything kind of go on the front for me. So, I had a little bit of trouble getting that balance right. I am not sure I've got it right yet but definitely gotten easier and better," said Victoria Azarenka.
