Allyson Felix is already introducing her children to the world of sports.

The retired Olympian, 38, spoke with PEOPLE at the Glamour Women of the Year event and shared that after welcoming her second baby, son Kenneth Maurice Ferguson III, whom she and her husband Kenneth Ferguson call Trey, earlier this year, she's excited to show both of her kids how much fun playing sports can be.

"Baby number two has changed the game," Felix, who is also mom to daughter Camryn, 5, tells PEOPLE. "There are a lot of teachable moments, but I think the biggest one is, I'm so obviously an Olympic athlete, I'm used to structure and I had to throw all of that out the window and just go with the flow."

"And so I think my kids are teaching me to pivot and to see the bright side of things. That's important," she continues.

As for her plan to introduce both her kids to sports, Felix says she's excited to "show them everything."

"And we've been doing that with my daughter. She's playing tennis, she's swimming, she's having fun, she's being a kid. And so I just want her to try everything and maybe she'll find something that she enjoys," the mom of two shares. "All that matters is fun."

Back in April, Felix shared that she'd welcomed her second baby with husband Kenneth, 40, exclusively with PEOPLE.

"We are overjoyed to welcome our son Kenneth Maurice Ferguson III, who we will lovingly call Trey," Felix told PEOPLE in a statement. "Born April 10th at 10:55 pm, weighing 7 lbs., 11 oz."

"As a Black woman who already had been through a traumatic life-threatening delivery with my daughter, I desperately wanted a joyful birth experience I could celebrate. I'm so grateful I had a doctor who saw me, heard me and made me feel safe."

"I had a doula who supported, guided and believed in me. I was able to have the unmedicated VBAC I deeply desired. The entire experience was powerful, challenging, healing and so beautiful. My birth experience inspires me to continue to advocate for Black maternal health and the outcomes we can achieve when we listen [to] and support women," she said.
