She'd need to finally acknowledge her complete lack of skills in the striking department. She'd need to recognize that this huge gap between her and the likes of Nunes, Shevchenko, Holm, GDR exists, and that it always existed.
She'd need to accept that she'd been deluded by others and herself, and that she's wasted some of her training time on things that clearly weren't working. She needs to understand sunk cost fallacy, and avoid committing it.
From there, she needs to find a trainer capable of helping her close that gap. Take two years, and focus almost entirely on striking. She only needs to be good enough to get what she's still the best in the world at in fights; her aggressive judo and submission game.
This would be a huge task, but it's far from impossible. She used to talk about being remembered as "the best ever". Well, a comeback of this magnitude would speak more to that than a run of continued dominance would have.
Currently, her Hollywood career is dead. She's limited to guest roles on middling network TV dramas. If she wants to get back to where she was, she needs to give fighting another go. Otherwise, she'll soon be retired from both sport and entertainment.
