  1. So, you know, we walk around like, I'm doing what I want to do. I'm living my life. I'm making my dreams happen. I'm putting one foot in front of the other. I'm making it all go. And then you have these moments which actually came, I was journaling, I had broken up with somebody. We had been broken up with each other for quite some time. And somehow I was having a ton of anxiety about telling him, again, I'm going to repeat, we had been broken up for some time. I had anxiety about telling him I wanted to date other people.

  2. Well, it's interesting. I feel like as I've gotten older, I've become more myself. And the more I am myself, the more my life looks like me. And it's not the same as anybody else's. And so it's been this process of first coming to know myself, then accept myself, then love myself, not on every day, be kind to myself even when I don't feel like I want to be, and then ask myself all those questions of what I really want from my life. That's what I've been talking about. And it's such an intimate journey that has taken time. Like even after I've discovered the things I like, the things I want to do, my dreams, who I am, then the courage to actually walk towards those things is in and of itself its own journey.
