Simone Biles had the global spotlight on her when she took a brief break from Olympics competition while in Tokyo as she sorted out the "twisties" that caused her to slip up in one event.

Since then, Biles has spoken up about mental health and what she was going through during the Olympics. She also had to relive the trauma of the Larry Nassar investigation when she testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee to talk about sexual abuse at the hands of the disgraced former USA Gymnastics team physician.
