And I'll also say another thing that, another topic that I explored at Behavioral Scientists that continues to be really intriguing and important to me is this question of technology addiction and how do we, how do we decouple from our devices and from the often kind of addictive behavior that comes from overuse of our phones. fun piece that I got to do.

And that was also in an audio piece that I recorded. I really enjoyed those two topics in particular come to mind.

So I opened the book with this question of whether or not to divorce my husband because that was one of the biggest personal factors for me that led me to want to write the book in the first place. And I'll just back up a little bit and tell folks what was happening.

At that point where, you know, when the book opens, I'd been with my husband for about five years dating, but we'd officially been married for only a few months. And what was happening at that point was really a confluence of a lot of factors. For years, I'd had doubts about my relationship with him. We loved each other, fundamentally, we expressed care in different ways.

And to me, care was all about validation. To him, care was about critical exploration. And that difference for us led to a lot of fighting and hurt on both sides. And at the same time, we had this connection over inquiry and a willingness to explore uncomfortable questions. But that connection, unfortunately, could also create a lot of tumult and conflict.

Part of me thought that getting married would somehow absolve me of the questions I had about our relationship. But unfortunately, it just seemed to amplify those questions. The other thing that was happening at that time and in that kind of scene that we drop into in the first part of the book is I had recently left my job to work on a creative project, but it wasn't panning out.

So I was burning through my savings. I was in this place of not knowing what to do next, of not knowing what I was going to do next. I felt deflated that this project hadn't worked out. And at the same time, my husband was, he was working at the startup that was really demanding a lot of his time.

And at this basic level, I didn't feel like he was giving me the care I wanted and needed and he felt the same way. And so it was this perfect storm. And so when I opened up, I was in the book. I was questioning about whether or not we should stay married, what I was doing with my life, whether I'd ever have the success as a creative person that I was craving.
