It's something that you're growing.

And when you don't pay attention to it, it stops growing.

And it loses and it becomes fragile again.

And actually somebody else might pick it up.

I mean, like when you reached out to me and I was like looking at your course and I was just like, holy crap, like I accidentally made something happen there that like we helped each other.

And then a load of other people got helped in the meantime.

As well, that like there's a load of people out there now doing more DIY, making their own stuff, making their own homes.

Like, that's what I wanted the film to do.

So I never made loads of profit or anything from herself.

Like I made about 25 quid last year when they showed it on RTE, right?

Like I didn't make any money off that thing.

But my God, what it's done for other people.

I looked up something.

I ended up on a journey with Dominic Stevens, meeting Sinead in Women's Aid, then meeting all these women who have been through so much stuff.

I also had the benefit of having worked in prisons in the UK where I was working

realizing that 80 to 90 percent of women in prison are only there because of domestic violence actually they either commit a crime because they've had to leave home and they're on the streets they've had to do something like i swear to god the root cause of so many women in prison and probably a lot of men in prison can always go back to domestic violence

Domestic violence is a cancer in society that I swear to God is the cause of so much stuff.

If there's domestic violence in the home of kids, it affects those kids in a way that can lead them to crime, drugs, escape, all sorts of stuff, right?

It literally is this weird little cancer that affects the rest of society.

And when I learned that, then had stuff happen to me in my own journey, and then it all came together in this weird symbiotic moment.
