It felt urgent though, Calms.

Like I know sometimes when you beat yourself up for not carrying on, but I feel like if I was where you were at when we started...

I got why everything else was in flux anyway, whereas I felt like I was married with kids and settled, and it was a bit like there was a sense of urgency about it.

If I don't do it now, I might never do it.

Yeah, my husband's great, and they're...

Seven and 10 feels like, you know, I know you've got a four year old, but he's like, I feel like I'm just getting out of the real business end, you know, play dates or they sort of understand what's going on a little bit more.

But of course, you know, I had a year of things flying and then lockdown happened.

And then I came out of lockdown, quit work.

And so 2021 then got cancer.

So me and my agent, we have a joke.

When we say like, well, like Bubba Gump, you know, like everything I've been through and she's carried me through.

I was like, well, after this shrimp fishing was easy.

Do you know what I mean?

So I feel a little bit like things are good now.

Do you know, like, you know, so after, you know, trying to do stand up through teaching, trying to do it through parenting, trying to do it through lockdown, trying to do it through treatment, you know, sometimes I don't.

Yeah.

And so now I feel like life's good, you know, and I, I, I,

I consciously practice gratitude.

You know, it really is that sort of easy because it is so easy to be like, I want this and I want that.

And they've got that.
