I ordered the book.

Here's a clip of her skating on The Skating Lesson. It looks like she's practicing double axel, half loop, triple salchows. There were other triples, as well.

The thought I had watching this interview is that skating is too obsessed with carrying over what should happen on ice to off ice. What I mean by that is if you make a mistake on ice you should try to carry on, keep the character and get back on track. Keep pretending everything is fine, put it behind you and get the rest done.

This is fine for a short/long program performance. It doesn't need to be the attitude you carry off ice. It is preventing people from getting help they need.
