Living the dream.

But then opportunity knocked again, didn't it?

Well, it's funny because I didn't see it in that way at the time.

So I was doing that job for 20 years, loving it, made a really good living, had really good clients.

And then I'd done a couple of spots on Off the Rails and Head to Toe before that.

And they asked me, would I consider presenting the show?

And I said, absolutely not.

That's a stupid idea.

Why would I do that?

Why did you say that?

Because I just actually I probably felt this is a terrible thing to say.

People are going to tune out.

But I kind of felt it was beneath me.

I was like working at a really high level, elite, luxury.

And I was probably a bit full of myself.

And I thought, why on earth would I do makeovers?

And that's a good thing to be full of yourself.

Do you know what?

It's interesting because I took a risk at that moment and that, you know, you talk about the things that made me, that was a pivot point where I leaned into risk and courage in a way that I'd never done before.

And I kind of, after grappling with it for a few months, I thought, well, what's the worst that can happen?
