Like I felt like this negative energy was trying to take me down, whether you call it the devil,

bad juju, whatever you want to call it. It was in my ear and it was getting louder. And as I was

driving, I just had the thought. I was like, I could just hit this bridge really fucking hard right now.

And end all of this.

I wasn't thinking about my husband.

I wasn't thinking about my baby, my mom, nobody.

And we're back.

Before we get started and keep going, I want you to pause the show for 30 seconds and go to review this show on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. It allows this project to keep going from passion project to keep growing

as a business. When you share it with your friends, you can share on social media, you can send

them a text message, share the link. That way you can spread the word and allow the visibility

of the show to be bigger, right? So don't forget your Apple Podcast review this week. I want to shout out. I believe her name is Catherine. And she left a review saying, welcome back, Carla. Glad to hear from you again. I feel like I go ghost. And I talked about it last episode. It is the fear of being behind this microphone again myself without helping others. I found passion

being behind the scenes. But I also feel like it does help everyone, including myself first when I get

on this mic and kind of just let my thoughts out. But let's get into the episode. So this week,

the topic is going to be surrounding around being a mom, an entrepreneur,

and then our mental health with all that being encompassed.

So our guest has been on the show before when we were still shit on 30.

It's been a minute now. I don't even know.

I will figure out the number of the episode that that was.

But she is a wife, a mother, a friend, a daughter, a sister, and also a self-made, self-taught,

if I'm not mistaken, chef.

Right?

She's just a wonderful woman.
