Junelle Bromfield has agreed with Usain Bolt and Asafa Powell about the selfish nature of Jamaican fans.
The Olympic 100m silver medallist reveled about being blessed as a black woman and looking back, God has been the guiding light in her life.
“I just feel like everything in my life is brighter now. I don’t have any darkness weighing me down, even within myself. I’m just at a different point in my life, where I’m not in survival mode, I’m in a loving energy,” Sha’Carri Richardson said in an interview with Essence.
“I love taking care of my family. I love taking care of my training partners. I just love the fact that I’ve been blessed to be in a position to show that divine energy.”
Sha’Carri Richardson has been in the face of adversity for quite some time but therapy has helped her build a better life and work on herself. Following her doping suspension in 2021, Richardson faced a lot of backlash but she managed to bounce back and claim the top spot one more time.
She claimed the gold medal at the 2023 World Championships then won a silver in the women’s 100m at the Paris Olympic Games. Richardson continues to grace the world with her unmatched sprinting prowess.
“I feel like therapy came from knowing that I needed it, and also being able to have a safe place to decompress—when I don’t have to worry about the world, or being an athlete, or being a friend, or being a daughter or anything. I could go into therapy and just be me,” she said.
“I feel like being with people who pour into me has shown me I’m everything that I know that I want to give out to the world and I know I’m everything that I feel in myself. There was a time I felt stuck, and now I feel like I love the softness and femininity that I’m able to walk in.
