Because you can't like think your way out of it. Like it actually hurts your body. And... you can't always talk to everyone about it. And I have a very loving husband who knows what depression feels like. And so, but I'm like, yeah, this isn't normal. We're just having coffee and I'm just crying. And that's part of the hormonal shift of just, you had a baby, it's gone now. But I don't know.

There's just like, it's just having a baby, like just motherhood in general is something that is so attacked. And women get maligned for if they do or if they don't. And then you got to spend your whole life defending why you didn't. These are such sacred personal topics and choices. And they're just fodder for people to just rip apart.

And so now that I've done this twice and I see how vulnerable it is and deeply sacred it is. It's actually given me this very clear understanding that whatever I do is great because it's the most I could do. And that actually extends to any other parent, mother or father. Whatever you're doing, short of feeding your kids cigarettes, is great, is enough.

i don't have the bandwidth to criticize or care like from a very deep place i'm just like you probably you don't make the same choices i do and i would not feed that to my kid but you're doing the best with what you have you know and i think that's for all humans like we're all just like for the most part probably trying to do the best we can

Well, I guess I can talk about crippling anxiety. I don't have it. It's a new thing to me. And I wonder if having kids also makes you feel like a little bit like you don't have your armor on.

I know we're all supposed to be like super mamas, but like even this podcast today, when I got the ask to come on it, I saw that you were a sports person and having nothing to do with you, my mind went to all the, so please don't take offense to this, all the horrible, press I had to do for sports radio stations in local markets. I'm so sorry. And, or just regular radio with guys.

And this is in my twenties. So this is like last year. But thinking, having to sit there and act like I cared about the Baltimore Ravens. All I'm trying to do is sell tickets for you to come see me at the Chuckle Biscuit. Having to sit there and pretend that I care about this basketball, you know? And then if you say you don't, it's like, well, she's a bit like just.

And all you're trying to do is like be a little funny on a commercial. And I was like, oh my God, like, I don't, I don't, I don't want to do that. I don't want to sit there and pretend. And then I listened to the podcast and I was like, okay.

But I was just like, oh God, now I know if I give it back to him, now it's an issue. Like I've had, I've had interviews, like guys walk out because they didn't like that. I was just like, you know, what's wrong with you or something. And so I just... But like, even to listen to the, like, there's just so many layers to it.
