that was very much a time of I guess that chapter's over because if you haven't got the commitment to go and train and your new career is pulling you so much more, it was it was time.
That's that's a great question.
And um
I think I'm one of the lucky ones in truth.
Because I have a career that I'm going to that is far more rewarding than anything I've done in the past.
Possibly not on a, you know, a front in terms of media and attention and
I I just love I absolutely love my job and every day being with birthing women and seeing new life and sitting with a patient who may have lost a baby or who has been got a new c cancer diagnosis is just
incredibly I feel so privileged to be in that position.
And don't get me wrong, I I loved my sport and there are definitely days where I get nostalgic.
