Because I think for some time, I tried to get better in certain areas that I didn't necessarily need to.

Like we had a fantastic team.

I had a fantastic partner in you that complimented me on a lot of those areas that were lacking in me.

You were really your strong suits, a lot of yours.

So for me, it was kind of like...

Why not lean more into the stuff that I'm good at, which also feels good when you are working on something that you actually genuinely enjoy, you feel good at, you get a better outcome or whatever.

Still obviously want to grow and get better at the areas that I don't feel as confident in.

But like not, that's not the be all and end all and don't forget about still working on the stuff that you love.

are good at, that's important too.

So yeah, I don't know.

I think try and network and find other people or learn about other people that are in a position that maybe you either aspire to or think they're doing a great job and maybe have similar strengths to you.

And just really try and see yourself in that.

And what we've said so many times on this podcast before is speak to yourself as you would a friend.

Like if you'd come to me and started talking to me about all of your weaknesses or whatever...

I wouldn't necessarily dismiss them, but I'd be very quick to tell you everything that you're good at and like just focus on that, babe, because you're doing a good job, right?

So I needed to just change that narrative and that's kind of what I worked on and worked through and helped me redefine, I think, that narrative.

And for them, and also the industry at the time, that was the utmost important thing.

That's right.

Exactly right.

That was what got them jobs or whatever.
