Julia, I don't know how I can live up to this. I'm shaking in my boots.

I'm so honored that you get me so deeply because it takes all of those qualities you like in me are in you. And that's how we make that connection. I know that's the truth. And I've seen them in you. So thank you for honoring me with that.

I really do.
I really do.
Absolutely. Proudly 74 as of November last year. Nice. Nice. And how old do you feel, Bonnie? Oh, my God. Probably 50. Uh-huh. Maybe. Maybe. You know, the wear and tear on joints from being active and injuries here and there and all that stuff. You know, just wear and tear from age is the only way I feel a little bit more comfortable.

I wouldn't say less vibrant, but it takes a little bit more to get up off the couch. You know, I can tell that the parts are getting a little worn. Creaky? A little worn. I'm trying to keep the soft tissue and the spirit still gooey. Okay. That's smart.

Yes. And I work at it. I mean, I try to do yoga at least three times a week and I hike and I move around and try not to sit around too much. But it's, yeah, 74 is different than 64. And, you know, we'll all have to keep lifting each other up through these rough times because that's the part that beats us down more than gravity, I think. Yeah.

You know, the cruelty and the suffering and the war and the endless stupidity and what? Are you kidding? I think that wears you out. Beats down the spirit. It's harder to get up off the spiritual couch when you get that pounding you down. Oh, I like that. I like that.

I really think that you're more relaxed about the things that could bother you a lot more, the triggers. You recognize that you get reactive and trigger, and it's just not worth the agita. It's not healthy for you. It doesn't end up harboring resentments, harboring anger. And keep stuffing it and not saying how you really feel that works to get you in the world.

But somehow I can't separate the fact that I've been I'm in a tremendously lucky position of having enough power to be self-powered, you know, in the business. I mean, I run my own ship with a great team, but. I don't work for anybody and I don't have to answer to anybody. And I'm living in a time when women can carve their own destinies a lot more than my mother's generation even.
