AceShowbiz - At the Teen Vogue Summit 2024, Olympic gold medalist Jordan Chiles discussed her plans for the future. "The future holds endless possibilities," she said.
"Well, whenever that happens, I'm going to go into real estate," the gymnast revealed. "I love building. I love being creative. I love seeing things just be designed in different ways. That's one thing."
While she plans to venture into real estate due to her passion for design and creativity, she also aims to establish herself as a brand. "I want to continue to brand myself and make sure everyone understands that Jordan Chiles is not just an athlete, but a multifaceted individual."
Chiles also spoke about the evolution of her definition of success. "As a child, it revolved around academic achievements. Now, I see success as encompassing all aspects of life, including community involvement and personal growth." Despite her Olympic accomplishments, she remains humble and believes she has more to achieve.
While competing in the Olympics brought immense pressure, Chiles has learned to channel negative comments into motivation. "I use any criticism to fuel my journey," she said. Her self-confidence is reflected in her personal mantra: "When I look at myself in the mirror, I say, 'I am that girl.'"
Chiles does not intend to pursue gymnastics coaching but sees a future in real estate. She also aspires to explore acting and singing, emphasizing that her current focus is on building her brand and empowering herself as an individual beyond her athletic achievements.
