It's going to be really scary when, you know, especially in a country like the United States of America, people's entire identity has been tied to their work.

Often, you know, I don't know if this is outside of California, but wherever I go, the first thing I'm asked is always, what do I do?

It's supposed to be such a defining part of culture.

And so when you take that away from people, you just pull the rug from under their feet.

They haven't developed their hobbies.

They haven't had time to develop their hobbies.

They don't know where they want to go.

Yeah.

You know, there was a whole period of thousands of years in which we didn't have a place to clock in and clock out.

We had personalities and identities and passions.

And so I think the other side of that might be really beautiful.

But in the meantime, there's going to be a huge mental health crisis where...

It is.

It will be really, really crazy.

And I think I started pre-preparing for that years ago, the fact that I need to distance myself from my...

career as my identity and really start building up who I want to be because this shit's all going away.

And so I've been very, very focused in what the next chapter of my life looks like.

And it's very much so not, you know, I was coming up through the girl boss era and being turned into the face of a girl boss era.

whilst being someone who really hates working.

So being really confused by that.
