0:00.0	I'm Natalie Lou and you're listening to the baggage reclaim sessions.
0:17.0	Hello hello hello.
0:20.0	How are you doing?
0:25.0	Happy new Year to. Can we still say that, when it's nearly three weeks into January?
0:28.0	Yes, of course we can.
0:30.0	Welcome to the first episode of 2023, because of course I've been on my annual break for a few weeks.
0:37.0	It is, however, also the second last episode ever of the baggage reclaim sessions.
0:47.0	Yes, you heard that right and I know that there will be some of you listening who are shook by what I just said
0:56.8	or some of you might be like yeah actually I can see how that could happen and to be clear
1:08.6	This is a decision that has been lingered around for a little while but it really crystallized for me over the last few weeks and it's not a decision just about the

2:02.2	And of course that is the case sometimes for some people but that's not it for me.
2:07.2	I've realized that it is it is time for me to show up in a different way. It is time for me to move on to something else and it has been a hard decision and it is one that I think has been calling at me for quite some time
2:27.6	actually but at the same time as it been hard like this is one of the hardest things I've ever had to say,
2:34.8	at the same time it also feels right.
2:39.0	So I want to talk a bit about this decision, not as a justification, but because I'm giving you an insight into my world and how I've arrived at this decision because I know that even if it's not about something to do with work, something to do with your creative life,
3:04.0	that there are other things that you may struggle with,
