Oh, my God.
A lot of that.
Yeah.
No, because one, now I also feel like an enormous responsibility because for a long time, it was just me who was making all the decisions and I was, I didn't have any employees, so I didn't have anyone, or I did have an employee, but we were younger.
So there wasn't a lot of stakes, but now I have employees that have children that have mortgages that have, you know, things to pay for.
And like, there's a little bit more of a,
pressure from that but I also in those moments I have imposter syndrome where I kind of feel like this is obviously very ridiculous that this many people are here and I don't I don't I don't really know how it happened this because it feels very quick like it just kind of flies by and then you're you're there I'm standing on stage at MSG in front of a sold out crowd and you're kind of like what the hell did I do to get here I don't even remember and that's like that's a that's a you know a weird experience but
I don't even know where I was going with that, to be honest.
I do have imposter syndrome, but in those moments, a part of me is also like, I can't get scared.
I can't stop this because too many people are kind of counting on it.
And I think that I sort of owe it to myself in a way that I should keep pushing and seeing what I'm capable of.
Because really the only thing that I think holds a lot of people back is this fear of
Things like that, where you're like, well, either that's not for me completely, or this is good enough, or...
This is good enough is actually not what I want to say because I think that everything that I've been doing is good enough.
But I just want to know what my full potential is.
I want to know what I'm capable of.
There's still fear that lives in me that feels like you turn down certain opportunities or you don't do certain things because of fear.
I think all the time.
I mean, there's certain parts of it that...
There are certain parts of it that I'm afraid of.
