You can have a rough plan, but so much is out of your control. You know, you can work towards what you want. You can't decide when you're going to get on somebody's radar what they're going to be looking for. You know, I think it's the same with, say, for example, an actor. An actor can do the best audition of their life, but they might have brown hair and the person is looking for blonde hair.
And so they see this great audition, but that's not what they were looking for on that day. And so I started to believe that if I looked a certain way, that that would give me, that that was my plan.

That is how I would get there because all these women looked like figure competitors and they were beautiful models and, you know, it was... Just a regular average looking girl with a bit of a pair of biceps on me and decent set of shoulders. But like at the time, you know, there was there was enhancements that were standardly involved in the hiring process.

and uh and and so i thought well if if i have abs and if i'm ripped then if i look in this way then they'll want me and so i kind of compare it to the uh survivor song and on the eye of the tiger and you you change your passion for glory because then my my focus shifted from just how i looked and how that would make if i change how i am to make them want me as opposed to being true to myself.

Well, it didn't last very long because I completely destroyed myself. So I started bodybuilding then. I was like, oh, let me sign up for this bodybuilding competition. And if I can do well in this bodybuilding competition, then they'll see that. just the logic that goes through my head. They'll see that. And then they'll be like, oh yeah, let's sign her.

I was 19 then. And I mean, maybe it would have worked if I committed to it. But anyway, the point was, I didn't know what I was doing. I was with this lad who had never trained a girl before. He was a bodybuilder himself, but he was a giant man. And a giant, giant man and who had done many competitions. And he was training me and my diet, then my diet was all over the place.

And then he put me onto this other guy who gave me this other diet, which then I just became a messiah. And I was trying to wrestle around Japan and all this stuff.
