I get so nervous, like really nervous, but I’ve sort of found a way to control them during my skate.”[31]

Assigned to compete at the 2025 Four Continents Championships in Seoul, South Korea the following month, Everhardt delivered two clean programs, placing third in both the short and free program segments of the competition, and capturing the bronze medal overall.[21][32] In an interview following the event, she said, "It's kind of hard to put in a words, I am a little speechless. It’s the first ISU championship and I get a medal, so it's really cool. I'm glad I was able to fight and skate well."[33]
