She toldParadein January 2026 that Odin means "God of chaos and wisdom."

"I love the dualities," she said, noting that he is nicknamed "Odie."

After winningSurvivor 50, Bracco said she credits her son with helping to shift her perspective on the game.

"I really think being a parent grounds you," she told PEOPLE. "It helps you realize that this is a game … and that you’re going to be Mom when you come home. You can go for broke and you can play the game that you were meant to play to your full potential."

She competed on three seasons ofSurvivorbefore winningSurvivor 50

Bracco appeared on seasons 32, 34 and 38 ofSurvivorbefore returning for 50 — and being crowned winner. She previously lost toMichele Fitzgeraldin a 5-2 final tribal council vote duringSurvivor: Kaôh Rōng— and Fitzgerald's strategy was something she considered while playingSurvivor 50.

"I’m here knowing that first time I played, I played with somebody who did make their big moves at the end of the game, and they went on to win that way," she said in a confessional.

Ahead of the milestone season, Bracco spoke to Parade about how she decided to return to the show, saying she was both "shocked" and "honored" she received the call to participate.

"There are so many incredible players. InSurvivor, I don't ever think anyone deserves anything. You earn it, and it's a lot of luck," she said. "And so I was shocked to even be called."

Bracco also explained why returning hadn't necessarily been on her "mind."

"I came to peace with the fact that mySurvivorjourney was over on theEdge of Extinction," she said. "I don't care what anyone says, theEdge of Extinctiondays count. From Days 105 to 111, I remember savoring each moment because I didn't think I'd be here again."
