There's a good chance you already know who Dominique Dawes is. She was a gymnast who competed in three Olympic Games, winning team medals in all of them - becoming the only American gymnast to do so. She was part of the “Magnificent Seven” at the 1996 Atlanta Games. And if that wasn't enough, she is the first female African-American gymnast to win an individual medal.
But these days, Dominique faces a task that she says is drastically more challenging than gymnastics ever was - motherhood.
Today, Jessica and Dominique get deep into what makes an athlete, and what life is like when the competition ends.
