“You don’t get more confident by thinking about being more confident. You get more confident by action, by doing things that prove that you are worthy of being confident.”
Welcome Rebecca Quin
We’re joined on the Starline by a woman who shares her journey from being “not your average , average girl in Ireland to becoming “The Man”, main eventing WrestleMania, motherhood, and everything in-between” in “Becky Lynch: The Man”. We welcome Rebecca Quin.
Becky, let’s go Beyond the Mic. In your memoir, you go from Limerick, Ireland to your art as a wrestler in the WWE and a bunch of drama and adversity in-between. How has adversity changed you?
You write “I hated the term “diva.” The very definition of “diva” is “a self-important person who is temperamental and difficult to please”—a connotation I would rather not be associated with.” How has wrestling given you the power to help others and eliminate that term?
You took a year of writing lessons so you could write this book, what lesson was the hardest to learn?
