Yes.
Well, first you go on YouTube and you watch how to become a nuclear energy influencer starting off as a fashion model.
I have no idea.
And quite frankly, I think if I look back in my life, you know, you did those exercises where you have to imagine where your life is going to be in five years from now.
I have never done it.
And now having had the trajectory that I've had, I definitely will never do it because I could have never predicted this turn in my life.
I guess it was really just out of necessity.
And one thing that has been pretty consistent
throughout my entire life is I try to be useful whatever that moment requires.
And in the case of becoming a nuclear energy influencer, I was trying to be useful and help solve climate change in whatever capacity that I could.
And so I guess you get creative when you feel the need to do something.
you know, about a really big problem that you have no idea how to begin to solve.
And I remember my desire to do something about climate really was inspired by seeing images of the Amazon on fire back in 2019.
And this was the same year that there were huge Australia fires and also California fires.
I think those are the original orange sky photos that went all around.
I think it was definitely climate anxiety.
And I think back then I couldn't have pointed at it and said, I have climate anxiety.
But even before then, I really thought I didn't want to have kids because why bring them into such a messed up world?
And in a world where we're all going to die together.
in a decade or whatever because of climate change.
