Fighting Depression
Exhibiting a lack of defeat During her longest fight to date, Rousey has fought against her own personal demons. She learned everything she knows about judo from her mother, but she was never taught how to deal with the disappointment of losing a battle or how to deal with situations in which she is disappointed. When she was in her late 20s, she was confronted with those feelings. She allowed herself to sink into a despair that lasted for two years. She remembers Browne holding her and pulling her through everything, even though she was crying a lot and isolating herself much of the time. According to what she said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, “I couldn’t have done it alone.”
