She looks amazing.
you know you'd think that carrying a secret with you and having to be on the move all the time would just kind of like age you and keep a you'd have a chip on your shoulder etc i almost feel like she's an example of like if you walk around this world with like loving kindness and that's the longevity key right there there's just something about her where i'm like wow i could probably approach people a little bit kinder um right and
Yeah.
And I think that is something, you know, when we go back to like, how did this change you?
I really, that was, I think a lesson I've personally needed.
Right.
It's just like when to, when to let go, when to let other people have their story and just know who Tanya has always known who she is.
And I think that and what she did and all of these things, right?
And she has never wavered on that.
And despite what other people have said about her, she has never let that influence her opinion of herself.
And I think that is tough to do.
And then I think for me, you know, you'd ask like how it changed me as a storyteller or whatever.
I definitely felt this was the first... I've always... I have struggled as a writer sometimes when I think a story is...
even if I think a story is really amazing or crazy or whatever, it's not all the time that I get to feel so personally connected to my sources who are helping me tell a story or just kind of some of the themes in a story in general or the protagonist in the story.
While, of course, I'm trying to toe the line between being a neutral reporter
in this story, I also found ways I feel like throughout my writing to insert myself.
And I think that as you listen to it, it's,
clear that I get more emotionally invested in the story as it goes.
And I'm really grateful that Glass, Sony, you, Ben, were game for that.
Because I don't know if there was a way I could have told this story without inserting my own human journey in telling it.
