This is the Ed and Marlon Show. Welcome back to the show, you guys. So this week's really special for me because I'm actually fanboying here a little bit.
Candace Cameron Bure 0:12
Really? Yeah.
Ed Mylett 0:14
Actually, a lot of bit. And so the woman to my left, she's an entrepreneur. You all know her from Full House. She's an actress. She's a producer. She's a bestselling author. She's an amazing wife. She's got all kinds of incredible things going on. I found out she's making tons of movies that we're going to talk about still. And so I cannot wait to pick your brain about your life because it's been so interesting. By the way, she's so nice and humble in person as well. So Candice Cameron Bure, welcome to the show.
Candace Cameron Bure 0:42
Thanks. Thanks for having me.
Ed Mylett 0:44
It's great to have you. You know what I wanted to ask you first? Because the audience is, everyone listening or watching today, they're all at some different stage of their life, probably trying to make some type of a dream come true. And I've followed you for all of these years. You've had staying power, but you've had to remake yourself, right? And so what would you say to somebody or how did you do it where you have one thing in your life and then it kind of ends? So you have Full House. You're known for that. I mean, that's a big deal. And then that's over. And for a lot of people, I think their career or something they've done and achieved becomes their identity.
Unknown 1:17
Right.
Ed Mylett 1:18
And so there's a lot of people today that just something's ended. You know, maybe a marriage has ended. A business has ended. Maybe they're an empty nester now. Their kids have moved out. So they're at this stage of life where something new is beginning, but something just ended. How did you deal with that? Or what advice would you give to somebody who's at that stage?
Candace Cameron Bure 1:36
I feel like the little engine that could. I have a drive, and I think there are a lot of people that are motivated with that. And sometimes you just don't know what the first steps are. But I've always been a driven person. And if you have that drive, and you're like, my life's not over. There's so much more living. There's so much more to do.

What challenges arise when your identity changes?

Candace Cameron Bure 1:56
Whether you've been in that field before and had success, or you want to try a whole new field, I'm the encourager to say, go do it, go try it. Who cares if you fail in the process? That's all part of the learning experience, right?
Ed Mylett 2:15
Yes, yes. That's easy to say though, don't you think? I mean, if someone's just had, well, like in your case, was there ever a dark period of your career or did you just go from project to project? Like when Full House ended-
Candace Cameron Bure 2:27
When Full House ended, I was 18 years old. I worked for a couple more years, but then I got married at 20 and had my first child at 22. So I then was out of the business for 10 years while I had kids. So I took a 10 year break. And then I came back in my early 30s and it was a new, I mean a whole new thing because While there was success, I was a kid. I was on television. I mean, I've been working since I was five years old.
Unknown 3:01
Wow.
Candace Cameron Bure 3:02
So from five to 18, but on Full House from 10 to 18 years old. Then you come back as an adult, as a 30-something-year-old, and you have to remind people why they liked you, what you did. Right. and but yet you're coming back in a new position as a new revelation to people as you know there's some qualities that are the same and yet there's maturity that's gone on that you have to tell people you know hey this is who I am today and so I had such a love and passion for the entertainment industry and storytelling and I had wanted to continue doing it so That's why I feel like the little engine that could because There's just been so many roadblocks along the way I can't even begin to tell you.
Ed Mylett 3:52
Maybe we'll talk about a few. It's interesting you say the little engine that could because I would think being gone that long, at least in my case, I've struggled with my confidence most of my life. Even the things that I'm good at, when I don't do them for a while or I'm starting over again, did you come back like I can, like with confidence? Or did you have to do something to rebuild that confidence again?
