General
STAYING POSITIVE
She missed a total of about two years of competition after sustaining serious injuries between 2015 and 2017. "I was injured in 2015, 2016 and most of 2017. So I've got a lot of patience. I've been training all this time. So I've felt like I've been training a lot, but I've been competing so little. I don't have to work to find the motivation. That drive comes from inside. It's not something I have to pick up. However, I have had to work on holding myself back in training. I think that on the day I don't have the motivation, I won't be able to continue anymore." (vasterastidning.se, 11 May 2019)

FUTURE PLANS
She hopes to continue her studies or start a career in coaching once she retires from the sport. "In the beginning I never thought about it, but then when I got injured [between 2015 and 2017] it occurred to me that it might be naive to think that I can quit when I want to. Then I started to think more about what I would do if I didn't have the gym. These thoughts led me to read up on the natural science subjects from high school. I'm a little in the mood to read biomedicine or something later, and I would like to work with that. But then I always think I will have the gym, but I don't know if I just want to be a coach. I probably want to do something else too." (vasterastidning.se, 11 May 2019)

Her silver medal win on uneven bars at the 2013 European Championships in Moscow, Russian Federation, was Sweden's first medal at the European championships in 50 years. (intlgymnast.com, 15 Nov 2013)
