Finally home feeling every emotion under the sun after my time in Italy watching bestie take on the world and having my nervous system join her! There is so much to say and so many layers to this experience that stretched my heart in ways I didn’t know existed, but no words I can string together at the moment feel like they do it one bit of justice.
@sara_barracuda put it best saying “one word summary of Milano Cortina 2026: LOVE.” In every form.
Sharpe & Olympic fam, holy heck. So much love and gratitude for you all.
Cass, I am so proud of you. Not only for your absolutely electric performance that night, but for how you’ve shown up for yourself, your goals, and your people every day leading up to it, and the grace, humility, and (dark) humor you’ve carried in the days since. I know there is so much that has gone into this journey, far beyond what I can comprehend, and you’ve done it all while being an amazing friend, daughter, wife, sister, and raising the greatest kid along the way. We’ve all been ready to cheers and celebrate this insane accomplishment before you even dropped in, and I can’t wait to make up for lost (and well deserved) Aperol spritz’s when the time is right! I love you!
