But 431 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 3: even just thinking about it again now because I haven't 432 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 3: thought about it since it happened, and and I know, 433 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 3: I think just being such a public person and I 434 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 3: do forget that sometimes and I think I want to 435 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 3: speak up and be strong and speak up for what 436 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 3: I believe in. That sometimes being a public person that 437 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 3: can get me into a bit of trouble in that 438 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 3: I'm very outspoken and I like to speak my mind. 439 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 3: But I think in time I've learned to not be 440 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 3: scared of doing it. 441 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 2: But I think you've just got to think about how 442 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 2: you do it. 443 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 3: Like in hindsight, back then, I probably would have gone 444 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 3: up and just you know, made my presence known and 445 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 3: maybe gone up to them. 446 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,959 Speaker 2: And I don't know, I said something.

But yeah, 522 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 3: pretty confronting though. 523 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, So what was it? So you like you're on 524 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 2: a massive. 525 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: Hollywood movie really, Like what's the caliber of that? 526 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 2: Like, what's it all? 527 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 3: It's the best of the bets, like in terms of 528 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 3: the crew, and directors and directors of photography and actors, 529 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 3: and the cast was pretty impressive, pretty good and that. 530 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 3: So there's a bit of a backstory with that too. 531 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 3: So once I met George Miller when he with wonder Woman. Yeah, 532 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 3: so he cast me as wonder Woman and his film 533 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 3: never got made, which. 534 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 2: I saw the photos though. 535 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, you've got to google the fight that you look 536 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: like it was my costume. 537 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 3: Yes, we were so close to doing it. It's like 538 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 3: a three picture deal like it would have been, that 539 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 3: would be DC comics. 540 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, you are like designed for wonder Woman. 541 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 3: Have been fun, but yeah, it wasn't to be. But 542 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 3: when was that because of the writer's strike the writers strike. 543 00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 3: It was also because of I think during that time 544 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 3: when we were going to make that film and then 545 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 3: it got put on hold, Christopher Nolan ended up making Batman, 546 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 3: and then he I think had some there were some 547 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 3: issues between because we were going to have Batman in 548 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 3: our universe. It was going to be a different Batman, 549 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 3: like an active by the name of Armie Hammer. So 550 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 3: there was going to be two Batmans floating around, and 551 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 3: so it ended up getting very complicated and multiple reasons 552 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 3: why it didn't happen. But when George kind of had 553 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 3: to let everyone know, look it's not happening. 554 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 2: I'm really sorry. 555 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 3: He said to me, I still want to work with 556 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 3: you one day, and I promise you that we will. 557 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 3: And then he not long after that, well, when he 558 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 3: finished with Justice League ended up not happening, he threw himself. 559 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 2: Into Fury Road. 560 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 3: So it was years before it actually got made because 561 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 3: he was going to shoot it out in the. 562 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 2: Desert in Australia. 563 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 3: But then when it came time, so he was talking 564 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 3: to me about a role in Fury Road, but then 565 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 3: when it came to shoot, there'd been all this precedented 566 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 3: rainfall and it was all like wildflowers and didn't. 567 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 2: Look post A totally at all.

But I used to do, like jumping 784 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 3: on planes, you know, being in front of TV cameras 785 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:10,000 Speaker 3: on a movie set, overseeing a swimwear line, all these 786 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,240 Speaker 3: different things requires you to just go, go, go, go. 787 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,400 Speaker 2: Go jump at the opportunity. 788 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 3: Because I never had it when I was younger. So 789 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 3: there was that kind of I've got to just like, well, 790 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 3: I don't want to say yes to everything. All the 791 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 3: things that I do want to say yes to, I 792 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 3: want to do them, and as the universe would have it, 793 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 3: they often fall in at. 794 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:27,359 Speaker 2: The same time. 795 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 3: So I just would just go, go, go, go, go 796 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 3: make hay Bo the sunshine. I can rest later, and 797 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 3: I would do it the detriment to my own health. 798 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,800 Speaker 3: And so from that though, as I've gotten a bit older, 799 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 3: and especially since being becoming a mum where it's not 800 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 3: about me anymore, I have to check in with myself more. 801 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 3: I have to listen to myself more so I can 802 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 3: be the best mum. I can be the best businesswoman, 803 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 3: best partner, all of these things. 804 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,720 Speaker 2: So it's kind of kept me on that track of. 805 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:03,360 Speaker 3: Remind myself because this business constantly has this ethos behind 806 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 3: it and this messaging. It constantly makes me check in, 807 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 3: which is a great reminder. 808 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you want to live, breathe, walk, to talk. Absolutely. 809 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:15,360 Speaker 1: I have had so much fun researching your new business. 810 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 1: So what I love, Yes, the Mindful Life the amazing 811 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 1: skincare range for kids, super gentle and natural. 812 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:24,840 Speaker 2: But the Mindful Life Journal, the journal that's new. 813 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 1: And yesterday, just yesterday, you posted about breathing techniques. 814 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 2: A breathing technique the kids. 815 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's nothing, I guess groundbreaking or new.

And they can't 833 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 3: even look, just like they can't even speak, or they're 834 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 3: trying to speak. 835 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 2: And you just cannot understand them. 836 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 3: And I remember when he did it, when he was 837 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 3: a toddler and he was at a point where he 838 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 3: could talk and he could understand me, and I was like, okay, 839 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 3: and I was just thinking, I've got to get him 840 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 3: to breathe into his tummy and calm him down. 841 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:43,799 Speaker 2: It was almost like. 842 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 3: Something that just clicked in me, this maternal instinct to 843 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 3: just Okay, this is what you need to do. Look 844 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 3: into my eyes and just breathe. Breathe into my hands. 845 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 3: And he calmed down so quickly, and we could talk 846 00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 3: about it. And it's the same thing I use it. 847 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 3: He's done something where he's been a bit naughty and 848 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 3: I've told him off and send him to his room, 849 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 3: which he hates because he hates me being that. Yeah, 850 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 3: he'll start crying and I'll be like you, you go 851 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 3: to your room. And now he does it automatically, So 852 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 3: go to a room. Do you breathing, and then when 853 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 3: you've calmed down, come to me. We'll talk about it, 854 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 3: because no one can reason with a person losing their mind. 855 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 2: We all need to be. 856 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 3: Calm to have at amazing And he'll do it now. 857 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 3: And now Rosie does it, so she's obviously not as 858 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 3: advanced in it, but she will. She got upset last 859 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 3: night because she was. I told her to leave the 860 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 3: catalan and she wouldn't, and the cat ended up having. 861 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 2: A swipe at her. Didn't get her, but it shocked her. 862 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:41,879 Speaker 3: Now the first time the cats had to go at her, 863 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 3: and it broke her heart and she was crying and 864 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 3: she couldn't breathe properly, and I was like, sweety deep breaths, 865 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 3: deep breath for mama, and she did it, and she 866 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 3: sort of. 867 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 2: She's just dropped me. 868 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 3: And so you know, these things with parenting, you've got 869 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 3: to be very careful because you don't want to be like, 870 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 3: I know all there. 871 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 2: Is to know about parenting, listen to me. 872 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 3: But I think when you've got something that's worked for you, 873 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 3: it's good to share it because even if one person benefits, 874 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,840 Speaker 3: I was like, oh that's great, then that's worth it. 875 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 3: So you've got to trial these things and see how 876 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 3: you go. 877 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 2: Well, that's what I love about. 878 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 1: And I've spent a fair bit of time yessay on 879 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 1: the Mindful Life Journal and this idea that it's kind 880 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 1: of like there's no real hard and fast rules. 881 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 2: It's just a go to guide. Correct it's not a blog. 882 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, it could be as busy as a Blogergau. 883 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 2: As you know, it's just like it's hard, full on 884 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 2: and as constant content. 885 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 3: And I definitely also that it would have just sort 886 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 3: of be throwing stuff at people where it becomes overwhelming. 887 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 3: But by the same token, I think, you know, there's 888 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 3: so much out there with and this is part of 889 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,480 Speaker 3: the inspiration behind it. There's so many wonderful sources of 890 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 3: information with health and beauty and fashion and fitness, and 891 00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 3: I wanted to grow similar to wanting to grow the 892 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 3: space of natural and safe products for kids, I wanted 893 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 3: to grow the mindful of space. And that's for people 894 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 3: who whether they have kids or not. Everything that we 895 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 3: will put up on the journal has this kind of 896 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 3: undercurrent of mindfulness to it, whether it's mindful of what 897 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,759 Speaker 3: you're eating, mindful of your time management, mindful of how 898 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 3: you manage your business, mindful of how you move. 899 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 2: Your body, or parenting or whatever. It is. 900 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 3: So every now and then we'll pop something up and 901 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 3: let everyone know it's there, and it's got this. 902 00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 2: Really beautiful tone to it. It's like it's like health, 903 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,120 Speaker 2: well being, mindfulness. 904 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: And then I went down the rabbit hole looking at 905 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: all your amazing products, and I just love that there's 906 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 1: this Do you know of Dak Shepherd and Kristen Beal 907 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: and they've got a baby range together. 908 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 2: I did not know that in America. 909 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:47,799 Speaker 1: Though, yes, yeah, but their story is very similar, Like 910 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 1: it's like we just wanted good quality products. 911 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:54,239 Speaker 2: They're not here. Yes, your Australia. You have Australia, they 912 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 2: can have. 913 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 1: But it's so nice to see it's coming from the source, 914 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,919 Speaker 1: like as in you're a mama bear. You know what's 915 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,799 Speaker 1: worked and what hasn't worked. You believe in it because 916 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 1: you use it. And again it's that idea of like 917 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:10,359 Speaker 1: walking the talk, and that's what I love about it. 918 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,919 Speaker 2: And even I was like, oh, man, like I wonder 919 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 2: if I can use this. 920 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 1: On me And the next minute I see a little 921 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,160 Speaker 1: video of you going the balm, which it is. 922 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 2: The barm One. So no, that's it too. 923 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 3: And I think for me when I had River there 924 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 3: was obviously wanted to be very conscious of what I 925 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 3: was putting on his skin, and there were some great 926 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,839 Speaker 3: brands out there, but I thought, there's not. I want 927 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,520 Speaker 3: to be spoilt for choice here and I want to 928 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 3: be I want to contribute to growing that space. And 929 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 3: so that's how it initially set out, but then I 930 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,799 Speaker 3: think with that whole message of mindfulness that came in, 931 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 3: not just mindful of how I'm making the products and 932 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 3: how the ingredients are sourced, but it was mindful of 933 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 3: how they're being used, not rushing through baftime and not 934 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:52,279 Speaker 3: rushing through those beautiful moments when you're bonding, which you're 935 00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,839 Speaker 3: often using these types of products. Yeah, and that kind 936 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 3: of was where the name was born and why I 937 00:43:57,600 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 3: love it. 938 00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:58,760 Speaker 2: I love it. 939 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:00,719 Speaker 1: And I was watching on it the other day and 940 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,839 Speaker 1: you were like, guys, start up life and you see 941 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: someone to place an order and I've got a product 942 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:08,360 Speaker 1: as well, and so you know, it's like if an 943 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 1: order gets missed and you track it on Australia Post, 944 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 1: you track it and everything, and you're like, where's this 945 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: order gone? And I hadn't had that in six months 946 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,399 Speaker 1: of yeah, which is probably like I've got a lot 947 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:23,240 Speaker 1: of great messages from some of my followers on Instagram 948 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 1: who are like, oh my god, had that happen with 949 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 1: my business?

Oh my goodness, we've got 963 00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:05,919 Speaker 2: five minutes left together. Okay, So my question is now. 964 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 1: Is we did say this was about failure or lessons 965 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: and you. 966 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 2: Were like, I've had heaps of lessons, No worry. 967 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: Is there any that we haven't touched on that You're like, 968 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 1: I did have this in mind. I wanted to chat 969 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:18,919 Speaker 1: about this theme. 970 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 2: There's a few. 971 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 3: I think that there was a few that I had, 972 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,840 Speaker 3: so I'll try and sort of whizz through them without 973 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:27,920 Speaker 3: kind of chopping out the essence of it. But I 974 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,799 Speaker 3: think going back to what we touched on when I 975 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:34,719 Speaker 3: started out with modeling, and it was a really hard 976 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,320 Speaker 3: slog for me. If my family and friends behind in Perth. 977 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 3: I went moved to Sydney from the age of nineteen 978 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,880 Speaker 3: and I was very much a small fish in a 979 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,920 Speaker 3: big pond, and it took me a lot of time, 980 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 3: a lot of money, a lot of effort, a lot 981 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 3: of energy, a lot of. 982 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:52,440 Speaker 2: Not backs to actually make it. And I think while. 983 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:54,560 Speaker 3: You could say, oh, you've failed for five years before 984 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,720 Speaker 3: you actually got somewhere, I think what that five years 985 00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,799 Speaker 3: of not being successful taught. 986 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,720 Speaker 2: Me was resilience and persistence. 987 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 3: Which are two very big qualities I think of my 988 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:09,839 Speaker 3: personality that I think was born then and really got 989 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,359 Speaker 3: nurtured then because I was like so tenacious, like a 990 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,719 Speaker 3: dog with a bone, because I knew, I knew in 991 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,839 Speaker 3: my gut and I knew in my bones that there 992 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 3: was something bigger out there for me, and I just 993 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 3: had to stick at it. And I listened to that 994 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 3: and I was unwavering with my commitment to that, which 995 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:32,919 Speaker 3: from the age of say eighteen nineteen to twenty three, 996 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 3: I think to have Now I look back and I'm 997 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 3: going like, wow, I was just a baby then, so 998 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 3: to listen to myself and be quiet. A lot of 999 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 3: people going from like my mum and my dad, like 1000 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 3: we know we believe in you, but should you be 1001 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 3: thinking about something else. It's been quite a few years 1002 00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:51,320 Speaker 3: and you're burning through money, and yeah, well you're getting disheartsed. 1003 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 3: I kept going back to Perth, kept going back to Perth, 1004 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 3: kept borrowing money off mum and dad. It was very 1005 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 3: soul destroying, and they, I think from being parents, they 1006 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 3: were I think, really over seeing me so disheartened, and 1007 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:08,800 Speaker 3: I just kept saying, I can't explain it. I'm just 1008 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:10,439 Speaker 3: going to stick out it because I feel like it's coming. 1009 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 3: It's coming, and it did. So it taught me to 1010 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 3: be really persistent. Absolutely. 1011 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 2: I think another lesson I learned was with. 1012 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 3: My health and to really I and this is before 1013 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 3: I started on Mindful Life, and I think was one 1014 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 3: of the inspirations behind it, of being more mindful and 1015 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:35,400 Speaker 3: checking with myself on every level, whether it's my mental health, 1016 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 3: my immune health, my gut health, aside from a lot 1017 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,480 Speaker 3: of other areas. But I really burnt myself out in 1018 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 3: twenty sixteen when I was doing Top Model and now 1019 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:47,280 Speaker 3: I had the most grueling schedule. 1020 00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 2: I was flying back and forth. I was pregnant at 1021 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 2: the time too, which ended up miscarrying. 1022 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:55,160 Speaker 3: I was sick for most of that whole shoot, and 1023 00:47:56,520 --> 00:48:00,080 Speaker 3: I really just I didn't say no enough, and I 1024 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 3: just kept pushing myself and pushing myself, and it had 1025 00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 3: very bad repercussions from a health perspective. So that taught 1026 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,360 Speaker 3: me to check in with myself more. I could have 1027 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:13,319 Speaker 3: definitely done things too. I'm a doer and I like 1028 00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 3: to do things myself, and I find it very hard 1029 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 3: sometimes to delegate and I forget that I can, And 1030 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 3: so that taught me to take my load off a 1031 00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:22,399 Speaker 3: lot more. 1032 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 2: Still, be busy if you have to. 1033 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 3: If you've committed to something and you're contracted, you have 1034 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 3: to do it, but then try and navigate around that so. 1035 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 2: You can reduce your load. Don't feel bad about it. 1036 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 3: So I really learned from falling down in a heap 1037 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:38,880 Speaker 3: that I could have done it differently and done it better. 1038 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:42,600 Speaker 2: I think. Also, miscarriage is crazy, dude. 1039 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:44,880 Speaker 1: I mean as far as like the pain, the grief, 1040 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 1: all of that to be able to also emotionally a 1041 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 1: compartment not compartmentalized. But you're in the middle of that 1042 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 1: a big shoot, you're going through a massive loss a 1043 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:57,719 Speaker 1: part of you, and then understanding letting go of that 1044 00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 1: and then going. 1045 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 3: Okay and having to keep it to yourself because they're 1046 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 3: so private and you're a public person and you just 1047 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 3: wanted to deal with it first before it's Yeah, it was, 1048 00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 3: but it taught me a lot, and I guess the 1049 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 3: one last thing was I've learnt through and again we 1050 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 3: touched on it a bit earlier about listening to listening 1051 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,800 Speaker 3: to my gut more, especially when it comes to business. 1052 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:28,879 Speaker 3: And even if you can, I think put all those 1053 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 3: parameters and all those elements in place to safeguard yourself, 1054 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 3: still just sometimes there's been times where I didn't listen 1055 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,440 Speaker 3: to my gut with there's some warning bells where I've 1056 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,040 Speaker 3: been pretty good with it, but there were some warning 1057 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:42,839 Speaker 3: bells that I didn't listen to because I thought, oh, 1058 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:44,040 Speaker 3: you're not being trusting enough. 1059 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,120 Speaker 2: You've got to trust and let go.
