Sha'Carri Richardson opened up about how struggling with herself led her to rediscover herself

In an interview with Essence magazine last year, following her Paris Olympics exploits, Sha'Carri Richardson spoke about the struggles of being herself. Talking about all the thoughts she had of sacrificing herself because of her career, Sha'Carri Richardson said:

“Coming into this level of fame—I definitely had moments where I felt as if I would have to sacrifice who I am, in order to have a career, in order to be what the world had basically deemed me to be,” Richardson said.

She further highlighted that the unhappiness from not being her authentic self prompted her to get back to her true self regardless of any criticism that could come her way.

"And those moments were scary, because I’m like, If I can’t be me, I can’t even give you all what you respect and love me for. I wasn’t happy when I wasn’t being myself. But the unhappiness is what got me back to myself," she added.

Sha'Carri Richardson made her Olympic debut this year in Paris after having an unfortunate experience during the 2020 Tokyo Games. She was set to participate in the 100m dash at the Tokyo Olympics; however, Richardson was banned due to being tested positive for marijuana. The American sprinter, who was dealing with her mother's demise at that point in her life, made her return to the big stage at the 2024 Paris Olympics with the support of her friends and family.
