We had been childhood high school sweethearts.

We were not meant to be married.

We're actually very good friends today, and we should have always been friends, but we went and got married.

He was gone onto a second marriage, but they weren't married yet, but he was going towards it.

And

I had these four little kids and I was working full time and I had not gotten clear with myself about my values or how I want to live.

And I was just trying to do it all, all at the same time.

And I ended up going to give a speech in Hawaii and I brought two of my children with me and it ended in an epic fail with the kids breaking out of a hula dancing class where I had warehoused them and running up on stage while I was giving the speech.

And this was, as I said, 1995 or so.

And thank God there was no cell phones for somebody to videotape this and there was no Twitter for people to put it out.

But actually, the other thing about it being 1995 was that this was all men and they didn't think this was amusing at all.

And they didn't clap and they didn't laugh and they just got up and walked out of the speech.

And I was up there on the stage in my bow shirt and my little gray suit with my kids clutching at my legs thinking, I'm a loser and I can't do this.

I can't.

I thought I was going to be the one woman who did it all all at the same time.

And I came up with this idea that I was going to start...

living my life one decision at a time.

I just had to slow this freaking locomotive down.

And instead of like riding on the back of the locomotive and holding on by my fingernails, I was just going to start to understand life with a totally different construct, which was that everything in life was one decision after another.

And instead of letting the decisions just make themselves, I was going to stop every time there was a decision.
