I have a lot of lessons I learned. We got incredible things. I had incredible opportunities. I made some good friends out of it. And, you know, there are parts that are really, really fun. And part of what was sad about last night when I made my statement, I was like, there's a lot of things I'm going to miss. But it wasn't, you know, for me, something I wanted to chase that feeling of...

the anxiety, the mental headspace that you have to be in in those moments. And it got dark, as you saw on the finale. And I didn't want to be in those moments. I feel like I've done a really thorough job of going through my life and trying to eliminate as much negativity as I can. And so for me, it was like, where are the good feelings? And let me chase that.

I love what I do at Female Founder Collective. I love talking about my book and having my podcast. I love designing. I love being with my family. Let's chase those feelings. And so that was where I had to say, it doesn't matter about money or it being amazing for my business. If it causes those things to my heart, it's not worth it.

I was fully warned. So I went open with eyes wide awake. I was happy to share anything that was asked or questions that were brought up if they were done with the right intention in certain topics, which I'm sure you're going to ask me about. I don't think I was prepared for the media situation. to twist my words like what they did over and over again.

That surprised me that I could take something that was positive or funny. And then it's like, I think I said on an interview, like I literally was with Jenna Lyons saying like, haha, wouldn't it be funny if we were rivals? It was a joke. Even in the interview, I say it's a joke. And then the headline is Rebecca tries to produce fake scene with Jenna Lyons. I was like, are you kidding me?

You know, like just that was really shocking to me. And it made me want to not open up because you're like, now what are people going to say? So that was hard to navigate. I'm sure from this interview, people are going to twist my words again. And I'm like, OK, here we go. Let's see what they come up with now. So that's a fascinating thing to see how reality can be twisted like that.

You know, I think in the moment when I was going through a reunion whack-a-mole, as I'll call it, it was something that came to my mind. I was like, wait, there's a lot of things that people aren't talking about. And there are a lot of things that were done and reshot by some other cast members when they weren't happy with the outcome. Why is this just on me?

But I think I don't know what goes into the minds of who gets the favoritism or the free pass and who doesn't. But I think that Certain people were allowed to not talk about things and that was OK for them to have those boundaries.
