got the chance to live that life.
And if I do move overseas in the future, it'll be a very different experience because I'll be moving overseas as someone in her 30s that has her own business.
So I wouldn't be going into a workplace and experiencing that.
And also I have a husband now and it's a little bit different than moving overseas when you are young and you have nothing
holding you tethered to your country you don't have aging parents all those sort of things and my life would have probably looked really different and I would have had so much fun if I'd like lived in New York lived in London but on the flip side the reason why I was able to make peace with that

I got to really build out my business.
I got to focus on just building that up and building up my money and buying property and setting my roots here.

You're local.
And I got to spend so, so, so much quality time with my family and my cousins and my friends that I grew up with here.
And if I move overseas, that will be amazing.
But I've also had such a great experience.
And I don't know if that makes sense or not, but rather than being annoyed that I didn't move overseas when I was younger, I think I just had to be OK with the decision that I made and go, well, there's lots of pros and cons to both.
And my friends that did move overseas
will complain about how they don't have roots and how they wish they had bought a home when they were still in New Zealand and how they had all these great experiences.
But it would have been nicer to have, you know, spent more time with their family.
And so you kind of just realize that the grass is greener where you water it, which is honestly one of my favorite quotes.
