Do they feel like they&#8217;ve achieved everything they can do?

Chantelle knows she can beat Katie. She&#8217;s experienced that hostile atmosphere which is always a concern when you&#8217;ve never walked that path before, and she&#8217;s done that now, and she came through it with flying colours.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We sat down at the beginning of this camp and said, &#8216;let&#8217;s watch it back together and see where we can improve&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Both of us agreed that she was not really as good as she can be herself.
