0:05.1	I'm fucking fucked. I am exhausted. My brain is exhausted. My body is exhausted. I am fed up.
0:12.5	I cannot handle the new cycle anymore. I cannot handle how long everything is taking to open up.
0:19.3	I cannot handle the pressure of the world and I just
0:25.0	just so much is happening in my personal life right now. Everything is just sort of like being
0:30.9	rooted and moved around and this time is just increasingly stressful. Everyone is under so much pressure.

1:50.7	and super relatable, super open and talked to me about so many things across the span of her life.
1:56.6	She's made it quote unquote, you know become internationally successful at a later time in life.
2:02.8	And that's given her space to live a real life before getting to where she's at now. So often people
2:10.4	who make it younger in this industry, they suffer arrested development. I even me starting at 22,
