Like to screw up the numbers.

Well, excuse me, five children, that's a lot of children.

Where are you in the birth order of that?

You have two very right-brained parents, it sounds like, too.

And you have pursued a very artistic path in your family with the siblings.

Does it go either way?

There's some people that are strong in STEM and numbers people and other people that are artists?

One of the things that I love about you, not knowing you, we're meeting for the first time, is that there's something about the way that you are in your own experience, like your own body that's very grounded and very self-assured.

And it's kind of like you have it or you don't.

It's like this ineffable thing where you just, you make us lean into you, Rachel.

Like you're kind of yourself in real time and we all become very interested and curious about it.

Like there's not a grasping energy from you.
