Olympic champion, entrepreneur and proud mother Allyson Felix thinks it shouldn&#8217;t be that way. She tells the story of starting a family while fighting to change her former sponsor&#8217;s maternity policy &#8212; and paving the way for others to get greater protection and more support. Her message is a testament to the power of believing in and advocating for yourself. \u201cYou don\u2019t have to be an Olympian to create change for yourself and others,&#8221; she says. &#8220;Each of us can bet on ourselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you love watching TED Talks like this one, become a TED Member to support our mission of spreading ideas: http:\/\/ted.com\/membership<\/p>\n<p>Follow TED!<br \/>\nTwitter: http:\/\/twitter.com\/TEDTalks<br \/>\nInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ted<br \/>\nFacebook: http:\/\/facebook.com\/TED<br \/>\nLinkedIn: https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/ted-conferences<br \/>\nTikTok: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@tedtoks<\/p>\n<p>The TED Talks channel features talks, performances and original series from the world&#8217;s leading thinkers and doers.
