and trying to keep it together.

And, you know, my business partnership was so toxic.

Like there wasn't even like a hug, like high five, we did it.

I didn't really comprehend what happened or was happening.

I was in such...

like adrenaline mode for all those years.

And then, so I had a trip planned right after.

So I like literally left right away and went to France with some girlfriends that was planned and had like an amazing girls weekend.

And then was in Switzerland.

And I, I remember I like couldn't breathe in Switzerland and I was like, what is going on?

And I had so much adrenaline that I,

I could like it was pumping and I had nowhere to put it.

And it was like giving me this gasping, unbearable chest pain that like I couldn't breathe because I was like, I don't need all of this anymore.

And I have nowhere to put it.

So there was that initial physical response.

But I had a two year contract and I understood my contract that I continued as is.

And I

It was very awkward of like, what is my role?

How does this work in my like mama bear protect everybody mode?

So I went from like, you know, we were all a team and then I pivoted to mama bear mode.
