Hello, welcome to her. Welcome back to Trinidad to Care. I'm giggling because I have to confront the reason why I wasn't here last week, why there was no episode. And I wish I could sit here and tell you it was because I was off on a tropical vacation, you know, trip and mitre. I wish there was some really incredible opportunity that I just

couldn't miss out on. But unfortunately, the reason why I wasn't here last week was because I had

15 cancarsore in my mouth and I couldn't talk. 15, not one 15. If you've even had one canker sore,

you know how terrible it is. You can't eat, you can't drink,

you can't talk, you can't do anything. It was honestly the worst thing that I've gone through

thus far, maybe not, definitely not, but it was really bad. And the first canker sore started my birthday weekend.

So from my birthday weekend, April 4th, until maybe a couple days ago, my mouth was

fucked up.

But we're back.

We're up.

Everything is going really good right now.

So I'm really happy to be back, but I just

wanted to fill you in on why I wasn't here. Unfortunately, it wasn't anything that exciting or

thrilling, but I'm back. I do think sometimes the universe puts me in these like really

uncomfortable,

unbearable situations and kind of like forces me to slow down when I'm not listening to my body

and I'm not taking a necessary break. I think recently I have been kind of overworking myself.

And I don't mean that in a pity way. I do love what I do, but I think I've been

putting work above everything else and I haven't been taking the time to take care of myself and

just do the things that bring me so much joy and tap into my creativity. And when I am in that

headspace where it's like work, work, work and nothing else, I end up in this

funk and I'm just really negative. I don't feel good about myself. I don't want to do anything.
