    Serena noted that she is "prepared" for her eventual retirement from tennis, saying, "I am prepared for that day, I've been prepared for that day for over a decade. If you've seen King Richard — you know that my dad always said you got to prepare, so I've been prepared for that. You know, at the end of the day, I think it's really important to always have a plan and that's kind of what I did. I always had a plan."

    "It is a balancing act and some days it's harder than the others," Serena added about her many business ventures. "It was definitely more tough because I'm still a mom and I'm still a wife and I'm still, you know, I want to be able to spend time and I like to be good at things."
