Because I think your goals also change, right? I mean, your goals change and maybe your goals is actually to create more balance because you have a new kid.

And I love that, Topaz, because I think we're putting a lot of focus in Leap Academy and the programs themselves to really ask these questions. And how do you find clarity?

I would tell myself, so first of all, ask for help. I was the person that would never ask for help no matter what. I thought that I'm very strong if I persevere through things.
