Allyson Felix opened up about how giving birth to her first-born helped her overcome fears

Allyson Felix had a very traumatic experience during her first pregnancy, with the Nike controversy and her suffering from severe preeclampsia during the birth. Reflecting on this experience, she recently opened up about how this pushed her toward finding her voice in her recent appearance at the women's sports reception in Davos, by 'The Female Quotient.'

Along with this, Felix also revealed another hardship, saying that her daughter was in the NICU for a month after her birth.

“I did the work. Didn't want to ruffle any feathers. Just very focused on accomplishing the goals that I had and it wasn't until going through very real-life situations that it pushed me from that and so I had my daughter and I had a really traumatic birth experience with her and I suffer from severe preeclampsia and my daughter was in the NICU for a month and that experience just changed me,” Allyson Felix said.

She added:

“I think it really helped me to find my voice and it allowed me to say, ‘Okay, it's alright to have an opinion on something. It's okay to push for change in certain areas if it's needed’. "

Allyson Felix retired in 2022, and the last competition of her career was the World Athletics Championships in Eugene, Oregon. She has had an incredible career, winning 11 Olympic medals, including seven gold, three silver, and one bronze medal.
