A Casual Catch-Up with Maggie Nichols and Simone Biles
Maggie Nichols: Hey, Simone! Long time no see. How’s everything going in your hectic world?
Simone Biles: Maggie! It’s been too long. Things are just as crazy as ever, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. How about you? Still flipping and flying even off the mats?
Maggie Nichols: You know it. I may not be competing anymore, but gymnastics will always be in my blood. I’ve been working a lot with young athletes. It’s so rewarding to see them grow and find their passion. Plus, staying active helps me keep up with you on social media!
Simone Biles: Ha! Gotta stay on your toes, right? I love that you’re mentoring the next generation. Those kids are lucky to have someone like you who’s been through the highs and lows of the sport.
Maggie Nichols: Speaking of highs and lows, I’ve been reflecting a lot on our time in the sport. You’ve always been so strong and vocal about important issues. How do you manage to balance it all—the advocacy, the training, and just being human?
Simone Biles: Honestly, it’s all about taking it day by day and not being afraid to lean on the people around you. Advocacy is a big part of who I am, but so is self-care. What about you? How do you keep it all balanced?
Maggie Nichols: I’d say the same. It’s about finding your support system and knowing when to step back and breathe. I’ve also found that speaking out and sharing our stories can be incredibly healing. Remember those nights we’d just sit and talk in the dorms?
Simone Biles: Of course! I miss those heart-to-hearts. It’s amazing to see how far we’ve both come since then. Speaking of stories, have you been working on any new projects or anything outside of gymnastics?
Maggie Nichols: Actually, yes! I’ve been diving into some motivational speaking and sharing my journey. It’s new territory for me, but I’m loving the chance to connect with people on a different level. How about you? Any new ventures we should know about?
Simone Biles: That’s awesome, Maggie! I’ve been dabbling in some new things too, like my own business ventures and collaborations. It’s an exciting time, and I’m looking forward to the future.
Maggie Nichols: We’ve come a long way, huh? From gym mats to inspiring others in ways we never imagined. Here’s to more adventures and breaking even more barriers!
Simone Biles: Absolutely! Cheers to that, and to all the incredible things ahead. Let’s make sure this isn’t just a virtual catch-up next time, okay?
Maggie Nichols: You bet! A face-to-face catch-up is long overdue. Take care, Simone, and keep shining!
Simone Biles: Same to you, Maggie. Until next time!
