I mean, I directed it all, 429 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 5: and that might not have been the best thing. It 430 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 5: could have been a little more organic. I could have 431 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 5: let them do what they want. But I had learned 432 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 5: to do everything play a drum machine. I didn't realize 433 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 5: until I was really fifty six years old that I'm 434 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 5: a left handed drummer, and that's why I couldn't play 435 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 5: the drums. Oh wow, they're all set up and right 436 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 5: and We did well, but we didn't get the major deals, 437 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 5: you know, and that's okay. And then I got married 438 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 5: and I still wrote music and make money.

How did 453 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 3: your creative background and music influence your work in those industries? 454 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 3: And tell us what you're up to now left, left. 455 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 5: And right brain girl, Yeah, yeah, combination of both.

Yeah, I 458 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 5: put my life on hold, musical life on hold. I 459 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 5: did some, but it became a third priority right first, 460 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 5: which is okay. I'm not sad. I have three great children, 461 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 5: but it's uh. You know, I've owned a few companies 462 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 5: in digital average.
