Should I meet with other people?

And he's like, you ever heard of Dick Wolf, David Chase?

You're in good hands.

And I'm like, it's the thing you like literally ask Santa Claus for in your head like all the time.

And she got it.

So she goes on the couch and water bottle tour, which if you don't know is when you go to L.A., your agent will set you up with a bunch of general meetings with like random executives and people who own production companies.

And you just sort of meet and talk about your life and see if you guys vibe and maybe you guys come up with projects.

It very rarely turns into anything.

Oftentimes, you know, you're lucky if one or two of those meetings become anything three years down the road.

But she meets with HBO.

And this is where I feel like the milk rises to the top.

She does get this credit because she knew exactly what she wanted to make.

And when she was asked, she was ready.

So there is luck, but there is also the idea of like you're ready for what's being thrown at you.

So they ask her in this meeting, what would you like to make?

And she says, sex in the city was about being a woman in New York, already established and looking for love.

But what about the phase before when you don't even know enough to know what you're looking for?

The New York I know isn't glamorous.

We graduated during a recession.

We're the first generation that can't reasonably expect more than our parents had.
