We don't answer emails very well, very bad with texts.

Can't seem to kind of organise our lives.

But I have, like, you know, I have a manager and a tour manager and they just, like, they tell me where I need to be at what time and then I'm there.

I'm usually running through the airport late to the plane, but most of the time I make it onto the plane.

So I've been very lucky in that regard.

But I think if I was to have, you know, a normal job, like a nine to five or whatever, I would...

really suffer, but it's kind of made me more compassionate about certain things, like, I just, I get very overwhelmed, um, with too many things coming at me at once, and I find it really, really hard to prioritise, um,

And I think my manager over the years has like gotten to know that, um, I will often just go through phases where I'll be like, I can't do this.

I've got to, you know, I'd cancel this, just clear the schedule.

Like I'm, you know, I'll, I'll get really emotional and just say no to everything.

And just like, and then a couple of weeks later I'll be like,

actually it's fine i'm fine you can you don't have to cancel those things or i can do them and um i'm very up and down like that and um i can get very like exhausted and reclusive and i'd have like really low social battery

So I've learnt, I've just, I guess I've just learnt things about myself, like oh, I can actually only do that much of this, and then I, and then that'll put me out for days.

Yeah.

And that's okay.

Yeah.

Um, but it means probably the reason why I'm really good at this thing is because I just can hyper-focus on it, and oh, actually that's what I did my whole childhood, is I just hyper-focused on music, and so that's my superpower, I guess.

like everything else fell to the wayside and I fell asleep in every other class at school.

But like, I became really good at music probably because of my neurodiversity.

So yeah, it's made me look at it like that.
