It definitely feels good to be able to relax, watch some TV, and laugh a little bit.
But theres one recovery tool she cant live without.
I use myNormaTech bootseveryday after gym, she says.

Travel essentials
One thing Carey always has when she travels?

I likeThats Itfruit bars, and then I likeRX Barsthe oatmeal chocolate chip.
Those are kind of my two right now.

So that feels really good.).
But shes also found a new hobby.
Just for fun, Ive been getting into photography, she says.

Lucky charms
While were talking, I cant help but notice Careys simple-yet-stunning Olympic Rings necklace.
It was a gift from my mom when I made the team in 2020, Carey says.
Its really special and reminds me how proud my mom is of me and how happy she is.
This time, Im just really, really excited that shes actually going to be able to be there.
