And 56 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 3: I built a career in brand of kind of figuring out. 57 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 4: My life in front of the people on. 58 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 3: The podcast in other ways, so it kind of went 59 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 3: hand in hand a bit to be a bit of 60 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 3: a mess, to be honest. But I also think there's 61 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 3: an element of lateness that's a bad anxiety too. It 62 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 3: is a little bit of social anxiety or just trying 63 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 3: to have control over your parameters of when you're going 64 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 3: to be comfortable to be somewhere. And I don't think 65 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 3: I think I try and get compassion, particularly for people 66 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 3: not like yourself, but for other people that might Oh god, 67 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 3: I don't. 68 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 4: Are we going to meet up with you? 69 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 3: It's always a bit awkward, And I'm like, okay, I 70 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 3: know that that might also come from a place of 71 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: just a bit of social anxiety. 72 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 4: So I think there's two parts there. 73 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: You're good. I've never thought about that. But then I 74 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: know that I get all the signs when I know 75 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: I'm running late. My heart starts raising, my palm starts sweating, 76 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: which all physical signs of slight mild anxiety. Yeah, so 77 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: like it'd be interesting to unpack. Although this podcast, I 78 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: am interview you, but I'm pumped. I'm so pumped to 79 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: learn more because I'm fascinated by the mind, hence why 80 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: this podcast even exists, and human behavior and very pro 81 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: therapy and having a therapist. So before we get into 82 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: your story, there was something I went down the rabbit 83 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: hole of researching everything you've done. And I want to 84 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: talk podcasts. I want to talk out all started. 85 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 2: But are you a nighter graduate. 86 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 3: I did a screen a screen actor's course for a 87 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 3: year Amazed. 88 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 4: So it was a one day a week. It wasn't 89 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 4: a full time I wasn't the full time three year degree. 90 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: Did you have to go into night. 91 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, so every Saturday I went in and did 92 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 3: I studied screen acting. 93 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 2: It's pretty cool. 94 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 4: Yeah, it is cool, isn't it. I mean I didn't 95 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 4: actually finish it in the end. 96 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 3: I did three terms and met my husband now husband, 97 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 3: and was on air. 98 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 4: At the time as well. 99 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 3: So it just got to a point where I needed 100 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 3: to prioritize a little bit and felt like I had learned. Actually, 101 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 3: I've become good friends with one of my tutors and 102 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: he kind of said, look, I think you're good. And 103 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 3: so there wasn't a certificate or graduation ceremony or anything, 104 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 3: but yeah, it was incredible actually, and I felt very 105 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 3: very uncomfortable really talking about that, to be honest, because 106 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 3: I have friends that are actors, and there's such this 107 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 3: this persona with acting and I started with this label, right, 108 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 3: and I was just really intrigued by the craft and 109 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 3: really wanted to kind of hone in on yeah, just 110 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 3: on different parts of expression and different ways to tell stories. 111 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 3: But I kind of kept it to myself a little bit, 112 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 3: to be honest. 113 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: Do you know I've started acting school. I know I've 114 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: been doing six months of it. But Neider is like 115 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: the Holy grail if people listening are like what you 116 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: keep saying, Nia, it's National Institute of Dramatic Arts. And 117 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: I've done the night audition twice and got rejected. 118 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 4: From the Big three year Bachelor one. 119 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. 120 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember I walked into the audition studio and 121 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: they're like, be a crocodile now. So there's a lot 122 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: of that. But then screen acting is very different, which 123 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: is what I do now, and that feels a lot 124 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: more like real life, but with cameras around. 125 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 2: Yeah generally, yeah. 126 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you find you know, I always thought I 127 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 3: said to a girlfriend who was an actor before I 128 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 3: did that, I said, I love doing the kind of 129 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 3: sketch videos that I did with the Thinker Girls for 130 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 3: many years. 131 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 4: I love that expression. 132 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 3: But I don't think I could possibly be other characters 133 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 3: other than you know, kind of blown up versions of myself. 134 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 3: And she said, that's what acting is. There's different versions 135 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 3: of yourself, know it. Ah shit, Okay, I think I 136 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 3: could do that. So then that's when I went, I 137 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,679 Speaker 3: went inquiring and yeah. 138 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 4: It was great. 139 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: That's I love that you said that, because they say 140 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: in acting school it's a sense of finding truthfulness within yourself. 141 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,679 Speaker 2: And then that truthfulness within each character. 142 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's almost like you're dealing with this shit 143 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: without realizing totally. 144 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 3: And if you've been through a lot like I have, 145 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 3: I have so many tools in my to be. 146 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 4: Able to pull from. 147 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 3: So it actually felt quite quite invigorating to be like, oh, 148 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 3: watch this, I've got something. On this, I've got something 149 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 3: because most other parts of life you often feel you 150 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 3: can get a little bit victim, like, oh it's happening 151 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 3: to me again, whereas enacting you like it's basically your toolbox. 152 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's really a positive way of looking at 153 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 1: it as well. So I do want to talk like shop. 154 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: I do want to talk podcast world, I do want 155 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: to talk like life. But before that, when I researched 156 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: you Holy mackerel, like you're doing a lot of stuff 157 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: all on your own. Yeah, Like, yeah, you're writing, we're 158 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: talking book here. 159 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 4: Yeah. The Brink will be out mid twenty twenty. 160 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. 161 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 2: Can you say what it's about. 162 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's a wellness book for singles, essentially encouraging 163 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 3: people to stop wishing away that time in their lives 164 00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 3: and just giving real practical guides to that. Because I 165 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 3: think we're often told you need to be by yourself. 166 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 3: You need to be comfortable alone, and you need to 167 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 3: follow your gut. You need to kind of figure out 168 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 3: what works for you. And then we're left to figure 169 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 3: that out ourselves with absolutely no tools or instructions of 170 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 3: how to do that.

I've done something wrong. Where it's like, no, no, 327 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 1: different humans just need a process in different ways. 328 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 3: And no matter how much you evolve in that with 329 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 3: you know, trying different things with different relationships, there is 330 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 3: still an element of getting to know each other and 331 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 3: you know you need to. You know, the biggest thing 332 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 3: I learned from the first year or two of this relationship, 333 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 3: it's only two and a half years old. Is that 334 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 3: you sometimes need to trust before they've shown you, and 335 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 3: that's really hard, hard, it's very hard, Like you need 336 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 3: to put your hand out before they put their hand 337 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 3: out to you. And I think girls often expect the 338 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 3: guys to always have their hand out first. And I 339 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 3: also think that if you have had trust issues or 340 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 3: issues with I don't know men, particularly from talking from 341 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 3: my perspective as a chick, you know, it is really 342 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 3: difficult to just completely lose any of that history and 343 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 3: not not you know, not subconsciously assume that there's a 344 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 3: chance something like that could happen. Even when you know 345 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 3: this is different in your gut total your mind gets 346 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 3: in the way. And also you're very conditioned to what 347 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 3: you've experienced before, so that doesn't go nowhere and it 348 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 3: comes up again even if you meet someone amazing, you know. 349 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 3: So yeah, I learned big time that I had to 350 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 3: learn how to put my hand out first. And really 351 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 3: I wanted to meet him in the middle. I didn't 352 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 3: want him to just be pulling me all the time, 353 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 3: you know. 354 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: Incredible. 355 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, we had that so hard. Oh, oh my god. 356 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 3: I think vulnerability is life's biggest work. But I think 357 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 3: I really didn't understand the level of it until I 358 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 3: had an experience in India and I did a yoga 359 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 3: nidra is do I say, into class and I went 360 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 3: really deep. It's kind of like am for those playing 361 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 3: at home, like a bit of a really deep meditation, 362 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 3: but it's guided, and it's almost like for me, it 363 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 3: almost goes hypnosis kind of. 364 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 4: It's really deep level. 365 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 3: And I remember waking up and generally speaking, if I 366 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 3: do guided classes and things, I can kind of remember 367 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 3: or at least have some form of consciousness. I didn't 368 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 3: when I came out of this meditation or this yoga class, 369 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 3: and it really threw me, like I must have totally released, 370 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 3: like my whole body, my pal was everything that you 371 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 3: clench your jaw, everything was dropped so far under the ground. 372 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 3: I was so vulnerable and I just couldn't stop crying. 373 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 3: Like it was just a really moving experience. And I went, okay, okay, 374 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 3: I hold on like I'm tired. I'm in control all 375 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 3: the time. And so I started to do that work 376 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 3: and I felt like I really got somewhere with it. 377 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 3: And then I met Ben and I was like, this 378 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 3: is a whole new level, you know, I. 379 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: Mean, I love that you've just talked about yoga nidra 380 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: because it's. 381 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 4: Not that no known or cool or it's a bit 382 00:17:59,000 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 4: niche isn't. 383 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 2: It's different. Yeah, it's different to meditation. 384 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: It's different to yogur it's almost like this whole body 385 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: you focus on each body part and just let go 386 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: of it. But you can lose consciousness, not in a 387 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: sleep way, like in a way where you're just like, 388 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: oh my god. It's where it almost feels like I'm 389 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 1: not to talk too hippy and woo here, but something 390 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: almost astral happens where you're like. 391 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 2: Where was I and what was going on? 392 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 1: Yeah?

When having as much as Christie was, even 509 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 3: in my own friendship groups, you think that you were, 510 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 3: people would have started to assume that in my friendship 511 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 3: group I would have been the person to have these 512 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 3: kinds of conversations. 513 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 4: I wasn't. 514 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 3: I didn't, And that's why I found it so thrilling, 515 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 3: because I was like. 516 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,719 Speaker 4: Why aren't we? Why haven't I? 517 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 3: And then I was I found someone that had the 518 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 3: same sentiment behind it. It was more intrigue and this 519 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 3: kind of electric thing of conversations. And you've got to 520 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 3: remember we were both in regional radio roles at the time, 521 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 3: probably quite bored with the content we could pull out, 522 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 3: and I certainly know that I needed to be challenged 523 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 3: in different ways. So we used that platform as a 524 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 3: bit of an experiment. Never in a million years did 525 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 3: we think that the radio show we would land would 526 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 3: be we would be off the essence of that kind 527 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 3: of context we were. We were trying to water at 528 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 3: a down to get a show, So we were trying 529 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 3: to make it really commercial, radio friendly. We were told 530 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 3: there's no way this is going to be on it ever, 531 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 3: like not a chance, not a chance, and then we 532 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 3: closed the door to radio. It was me specifically because 533 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 3: Christie at the time, who was the other thinker girl, 534 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 3: she was on it at quite a good at quite 535 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 3: a good market, so like like a high end market 536 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,679 Speaker 3: in terms of radio talk, and I was like, fuck this, 537 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 3: I'm out. If we're not getting a job, I'm going 538 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 3: to go off and look at Tally. And the second 539 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,239 Speaker 3: I turned the other way, they were like, no, we 540 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 3: want the show that you're doing, like we want we 541 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 3: want that naughty show. 542 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: And that was Kiss FM. 543 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 3: Yeah. 544 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: So so almost when you kind of like let go 545 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: of it all together was when it came to you 546 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: energetically essentially. 547 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 4: Yeah. 548 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 1: And then how was like radio was like, especially KISSFM, 549 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:53,239 Speaker 1: And I know that it ended pretty horribly like the 550 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: words I've seen like traumatic and brutal as far as 551 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 1: the way of accings go. Yeah, but like when it 552 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: was good and when you were just like in the 553 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: moment and filming skits or like doing like what were 554 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,239 Speaker 1: what were like what was the golden moment?

Every show you had at least a moment 577 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 3: where you were like, this is unreal, you know, And 578 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 3: so it was. It was an awesome experience. I think 579 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 3: the trauma and I guess that tough time. It's funny 580 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 3: now that I think about it, and I do, I 581 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 3: can hear those girls like, oh God, I just kind 582 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 3: of cringe because I also know that this is radio 583 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 3: and I've read so many articles of everybody else experiencing 584 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 3: this before. 585 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 4: But at the time it didn't matter. You know, it 586 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 4: was our first time. 587 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 3: It was my first time being so blind sided at 588 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 3: something like that, And now I know that it happens 589 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 3: so regularly. I've seen it happen so many times in 590 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 3: between the time it happened to us and now, so 591 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 3: I kind of giggle at At the time it felt 592 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 3: so personal, but that. 593 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: Is and also you put your heart into it. 594 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, and yeah, and we were you know, I think 595 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 3: there were a few little specific facts of very misleading 596 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 3: promises and things that I guess are. 597 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: Getting almost promotion right. 598 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 3: So yeah, originally we were building for about eight months. 599 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 4: We were building a drive show for a year later. 600 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 3: And then the drive show became available much earlier than 601 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 3: they'd anticipated, so instead of putting us in earlier than planned, 602 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 3: they thought, oh no, we're not going to risk two girls. 603 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 4: Will put in two guys. 604 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 3: And it was just like we'd come so far and 605 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 3: the two girl thing just felt like it was so 606 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,199 Speaker 3: not We had a strong show. Didn't matter, you know 607 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 3: that we were two chicks, but it did. It still 608 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 3: did so I think it was disappointing to think that 609 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 3: we'd built almost like a legacy, and we'd kind of pioneered, pioneered. 610 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 3: I guess Women on Air were two women to some degree. 611 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 3: There were other shows that had happened over the years. 612 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 3: I'm not saying we're the only one that had done it, 613 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 3: but in this kind of way and the content we 614 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 3: were covering, And to think that then we ended up 615 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 3: not getting that slot because it was too risky still 616 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 3: and two guys got it, I think was also for 617 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 3: me personally, I found that that was a. 618 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 4: Big It felt like a failure. 619 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: To me. 620 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 3: It felt like we'd gotten so far and we'd broken 621 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 3: the ceiling, but we hadn't, you know, we couldn't get 622 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 3: we couldn't get any further. 623 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 4: And that was. Yeah, it was pretty heart wrenching. 624 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: Understandably first of all. But also don't like, and I 625 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 1: don't want to say it, but fuck you did good? 626 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean?

You 629 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: didn't get to see it come to fouish in the 630 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: way that you'd love to, but it's still pretty big 631 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: what you did achieve. I think it's messed up the 632 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: way that you got acts. Do you want to share 633 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: that story? 634 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 4: Well, it was funny because I'd met. 635 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 3: Ben so my whole real on EPISONA, and we were 636 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 3: pretty transparent. 637 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 4: What you see is what you get. 638 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 3: But essentially, when you do a rate show, you have 639 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 3: a bit of a list in the boardroom and you've 640 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 3: got an idea of the kind of stories that are 641 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 3: your stories and the kind of stories of your co 642 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 3: host stories. 643 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 4: The single storyline for me was very big. 644 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 3: Because I was the single girl and merce was the 645 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 3: in relationship girl. So it was only a few months 646 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 3: before that I'd met Ben and the storyline started to 647 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 3: change a little bit, and it was just things were 648 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 3: changing really quickly. It was really a bizarre time. Actually, 649 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 3: I was incredibly loved up and was really feeling quite confident, 650 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 3: but also not not caring. But there was an element 651 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 3: of and now I look back, it's not that I 652 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 3: dropped the ball, but I just all of a sudden 653 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 3: had different things in my life. 654 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: It had come up. 655 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 3: I'd worked the radio circuit for six years on air 656 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 3: before then and probably eight years including off air rolls, 657 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 3: so I had busted my guard and really focused on 658 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 3: that part of my life and career. So it was 659 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 3: actually quite refreshing to have a different focus, to be honest, 660 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 3: and something that was so nourishing and lovely and having 661 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 3: all these great sex and just you know, just having 662 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 3: different things to do than just work. So at this 663 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 3: point we were doing had our first fertility appointment and 664 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 3: on a Friday in October, and it was the very 665 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 3: first time we went in because my husband had prostate 666 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 3: cancer in his thirties and we can't conceive naturally. And 667 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 3: I said, look, I don't think we want to have 668 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 3: kids today, but because you know all of this history 669 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 3: about your cancer and your situation, I feel like I've 670 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 3: got some questions. So maybe we could go in and 671 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 3: ask a few questions.

I 700 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 3: found like there's all kinds of grief, there's all kinds 701 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 3: of sad, and there's all kinds of happiness, all kinds 702 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 3: of troubled emotions you. 703 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 4: Go through, but shock is a really tough one. 704 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 3: The people that I've lost in my life and lost 705 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 3: and look, you have different feelings, but the people I've 706 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 3: lost in my life knowing that they were going compared 707 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 3: to the ones that have gone through shock at just 708 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 3: such different griefs. 709 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 4: And so it was really for me. 710 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 3: The shock and that real betrayal, and you know, and 711 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 3: just thinking about all the board meetings and all the 712 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 3: things that you've been told and how they were all lies, 713 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 3: Like your real sense of trust in yourself goes too. 714 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 3: I was really shattered from that intuition point, which I 715 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 3: talked so much about in my work now. And I 716 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 3: really prided myself on being a person that followed my gup. 717 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 3: But there were signs that I mustn't have followed or 718 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 3: I didn't follow, And it's hard to accept that because. 719 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,719 Speaker 4: Because you want to see that coming. 720 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 3: And I really prided myself on reading the play. And so, yeah, 721 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 3: the shock was pretty full on. And to not say 722 00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 3: goodbye to your audience was going to tell. 723 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 1: So then you asked if you could go in and 724 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: say goodbye to your audience and do one more show. 725 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 3: Is that right, Yeah, we wanted to go in that 726 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 3: night and we said we'll be professional and you know whatever, 727 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 3: and the response was that we'd be too emotional. 728 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 2: That's messed up. 729 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: Do you would you say there's an element to radio 730 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: and television? I say television, well, because I feel like 731 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: the both are media. 732 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 3: That's you're disposable, yeah one, And it's and you know 733 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 3: now now that I sit here today thinking about what 734 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 3: my future is in that space and being back on 735 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 3: air recently and another show on another show with a 736 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 3: guy and kind of a different network and doing all 737 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 3: of that, you know, I'm aware that that's the case, 738 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 3: and I sign up anyway, yes, going in this time. 739 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 3: So I think you need to be aware of that. 740 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 3: But I wonder how you can possibly be aware until 741 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 3: you're royally fucked over, because until you feel that, then 742 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 3: you need to make a conscious decision of whether you're 743 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 3: prepared to go back again. And it took me a 744 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 3: long time to think about whether I wanted to do that. 745 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 4: And even if I am back on. 746 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 3: Air one day or when I was back on air 747 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 3: more recently, I'm a very very different person. 748 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 1: That's also understandable though, because there's been let go and 749 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: being replaced and then there's been completely disrespected and not 750 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 1: treated like a human being. 751 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 3: That's true, and I think they do say that different 752 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 3: networks have different kind of ethoses with that. Overall, the 753 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 3: industry doesn't have a great rep for you know. 754 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 4: There's not exactly a union supporting. 755 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 1: The reason why I ask this is the whole premise 756 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,319 Speaker 1: of this podcast is things aren't as shiny as they 757 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 1: look on the surface. 758 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:42,760 Speaker 4: That's right. 759 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 1: And you know, as much as I am about to 760 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: ask you this next question it's exciting and fun, I 761 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 1: want people to know that it was so messed up. 762 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 1: That's a really shitty way to be fired in any job. 763 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: Imagine if you worked anywhere and it was like, don't 764 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 1: come in tomorrow, you're replaced, see you later. Yeah, it's 765 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: just not the way a good human treats another human. 766 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 4: No. 767 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 3: No. And it was really tricky for me too, because 768 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 3: it's much more public now my kind of wellness of 769 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 3: my life and my work. 770 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 4: I'm a self care coach. 771 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 1: Now. 772 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:19,840 Speaker 3: I completely changed, not trajectories, because I still am doing 773 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 3: media stuff, but I just really became more public on 774 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 3: that side of my on myself. But at the time, 775 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 3: it is it was really hard for me to get 776 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 3: my head around because I was practicing a lot of 777 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 3: that wellness stuff behind the scenes in my own life, 778 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 3: and then was living this really kind of contradictory life 779 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 3: in the space I was in in that job. It 780 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 3: was just really a lot. It was very toxic in 781 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 3: many ways, totally. 782 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 1: Did that trigger the anxiety stuff as well, that kind 783 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: of environment. 784 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I got a drainal fatigue when I was there, 785 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 3: so and look, some of that was the environment. Some 786 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 3: of that was the pressure I think I put on 787 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,399 Speaker 3: myself and the controlling ways I had because it was. 788 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 4: My brand and my name and your baby. 789 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I learned a lot from that perspective, But yeah, 790 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 3: there was it wasn't It wasn't always a conducive environment 791 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 3: to feel safe, Let's say that much. But I think also, 792 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 3: would I go back and do a few things differently, Yeah, 793 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:14,359 Speaker 3: for sure. 794 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:15,879 Speaker 4: From my end, I take rest. 795 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 3: I'm very hard, not hard on myself, but I very 796 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 3: much think that everybody plays a role. I still think 797 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 3: if you're cheated on, there's a. 798 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 4: Role you've played. 799 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,879 Speaker 3: You know.

It was the particular elements of it, you know, 889 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 3: the way that Ben and I actually did deal with 890 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 3: it very differently because there was so many articles I 891 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 3: was reading of it brought us closer together, and I 892 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 3: was like, well, no, it didn't. 893 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:45,640 Speaker 4: For a second for us. 894 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,760 Speaker 3: It was hard, and I think a lot of people 895 00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 3: share that stuff once the ribbon is all tied and 896 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 3: everything sorted, you know, So then in hindsight of all 897 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 3: of course I can say now. 898 00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, of course it brought us closer. 899 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 3: Together now, but I was as much as I did 900 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 3: delay a little bit of that sharing. 901 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 4: I wanted to share as much as I. 902 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 3: Could in the moment too, because that was the stuff 903 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,359 Speaker 3: I couldn't find. I could find everything with a oh 904 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 3: now we've got a baby, so now we're going to 905 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 3: talk about a miscarriage. 906 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 4: I wanted to fucking talk to the people that didn't. 907 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 3: Have a baby yet and that were in the trenches 908 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 3: with me, And so I shared that stuff, hoping that 909 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 3: potentially I was that for other people, and it helped 910 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:27,280 Speaker 3: me because. 911 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 4: Then people came forward and shared for me. 912 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,919 Speaker 3: So it was definitely a therapeutic thing for everybody. 913 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 1: I've seen you speak as an ambassador. Is it for 914 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 1: pink Elephant? And it's like one in four women miscarriage? 915 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 1: Is it before the twelve week month? 916 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 4: Yeah? Early pregnancy. 917 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's pretty for lo. 918 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 1: Like I almost feel like speaking about something like this 919 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,959 Speaker 1: is how we used to speak about mental health five 920 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 1: years ago, Like if there's still this taboo, like there's 921 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 1: something wrong with you or oh it's not going right, 922 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 1: Like it's weird because we celebrate pregnant women so much, 923 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 1: but this. I've never had a miscarriage and I've never 924 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: been pregnant, but I can only imagine when you really 925 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 1: want this thing and it's a celebration of love and 926 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:14,840 Speaker 1: you're both ready for this phase of your life. I 927 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 1: can only imagine that it comes with it like a 928 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 1: miscarriage comes with a whole hunk of grief shame. 929 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 3: It's so surreal because I think I often felt that 930 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 3: before I miscarried, and then once I miscarried, I really 931 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 3: understood why people don't share. 932 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 2: Really. 933 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is a very different version of grief. 934 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 4: It is very unique. 935 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 3: It is not something often you can articulate for starters. 936 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:48,879 Speaker 3: It is incredibly hard to explain to anybody. And that's 937 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 3: why often women that have miscarried can give each other 938 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 3: a glance and that's enough because you know that it's 939 00:42:56,239 --> 00:43:01,439 Speaker 3: the words aren't there. And the second thing is it's 940 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 3: so personal because it was in your body. Yeah, so 941 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 3: I once it happened to me, I went, okay, okay, 942 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 3: God if I'm finding this hard, and I'm a broadcaster, 943 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 3: and for my life, I guess my work and my 944 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 3: passion has been sharing, and I understand why people can't 945 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 3: do this like I can't do this right now, let 946 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 3: alone in anyone else, even with your family members. You know, 947 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:31,399 Speaker 3: it's just hard to put into words. It's a very 948 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,720 Speaker 3: very different kind of pain. It's just it's like a limb, 949 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 3: but not a limb with soul. 950 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:37,360 Speaker 1: Like. 951 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,319 Speaker 4: It's just a very very unique experience. 952 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 3: And because we don't talk about it on the flip side, 953 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 3: which is a bit of a double edged sword, right, 954 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,239 Speaker 3: it isn't it's kind of put in this box of 955 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 3: you are the miscarriater, you didn't and it's really you know, 956 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 3: it's kind of bulk, but it's like a bulk issue, 957 00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 3: and it's so so, so, so so unique because even 958 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,759 Speaker 3: if people aren't in touch with their intuition, even if 959 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 3: people aren't aware I thought it was a girl or 960 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 3: a boy or I don't want to name it, it doesn't 961 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 3: have to go a particular way for you to have 962 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 3: felt grief more than the next person. Innately, there's something 963 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:18,840 Speaker 3: that changes in a woman when they've experienced essentially a 964 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:20,280 Speaker 3: birth and a death in their body. 965 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:22,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, totally. 966 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:27,280 Speaker 3: And I don't know if you know, if people really 967 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 3: understand that the process of a birth and then a 968 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,799 Speaker 3: loss like a death from the same being in a 969 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 3: very small period of time can be compared to anything else, 970 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,919 Speaker 3: you know, So I understand why it would be hard 971 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,840 Speaker 3: to articulate, and I've spent a lot of time articulating it, 972 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:45,719 Speaker 3: so I can put it. 973 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 4: Like that, But it really is like that. 974 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 3: It's essentially you birthing something and then losing it in 975 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,919 Speaker 3: a very small amount of time, and somehow not only 976 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 3: do you have to deal with that emotionally, but you 977 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 3: also have the physical ramifications of that as well. Totally 978 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,840 Speaker 3: talk about it physically for a moment like hormone or 979 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,719 Speaker 3: like hormone all, but also the actual loss of the 980 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,280 Speaker 3: little embryo, you know, so it either comes. 981 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 4: Out of you either have to go get surgery. 982 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 3: You know. For me, we didn't have a heartbeat, and 983 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 3: I had to wait and hope that it would come 984 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 3: out naturally, which it didn't, and then you make another 985 00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 3: decision to go to get it taken out. And I 986 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 3: said to the woman, is this the same as an abortion? 987 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 3: And she said yeah. And I just wanted to be 988 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 3: clear on that, just because I'm very inquisitive and I 989 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,439 Speaker 3: just ask lots of questions and I'm sure people don't 990 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 3: want to hear no, but I. 991 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 4: Was fascinated by that. 992 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 3: I was like, so this is the same surgery as 993 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 3: a termination, and she said yeah, and I go okay. 994 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 3: And that's that's confronting for you too, because then you're like, 995 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:45,400 Speaker 3: I don't want to choose this, but this baby's not 996 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 3: leaving me and I can't continue to live like this. 997 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 3: So there's so many other elements that then you have 998 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 3: to make decisions on that aren't even anything to do 999 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:55,360 Speaker 3: with the emotional. 1000 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 1: And then on top of this, your pregnancy wasn't the 1001 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 1: orthodox pregnancy because of it because of Ben's past. 1002 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:05,359 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, yeah, so not everyone with process cancer has 1003 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 3: the same deal as him, but Ben cannot ejaculate, so 1004 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 3: here we still have sex, and there's you know, all 1005 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 3: of the things work with different ways, sometimes with help, 1006 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 3: sometimes without, but in the end there's no there's no 1007 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 3: sperm that it's coming out of. It's not a sperm machine, 1008 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 3: so all of his sperm is frozen. So it's interesting 1009 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 3: even when you would do fertility appointments, when people would 1010 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,800 Speaker 3: say to you, oh, well, you're going away this Christmas, 1011 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 3: and you know, you never know, like if you relax 1012 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 3: and you have a good time, it might just happen 1013 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 3: and I'm like, well, Jill, if you're going to pack 1014 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,560 Speaker 3: a fridge and eskie and jump on a plane with 1015 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 3: the Stafiji and come and in search it at my vagina, 1016 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 3: then that's how. 1017 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 4: It will work. But no, there is no other way 1018 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:45,439 Speaker 4: for us, no other way. 1019 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:49,319 Speaker 3: So yeah, it was interesting because when we met, he 1020 00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,759 Speaker 3: was very amazing and told me straight up about that, 1021 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,319 Speaker 3: even before we'd had sex. It was this is the conversation. 1022 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:57,399 Speaker 3: He's in his forties and he was, you know, very 1023 00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 3: very straight up, and I think to some degree wasn't 1024 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,160 Speaker 3: even sure or if he would be able to have 1025 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,840 Speaker 3: kids if he'd meet someone that and it was just 1026 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:04,799 Speaker 3: a no brainer for me. 1027 00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 4: He was the father of my kids. It would just 1028 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:07,920 Speaker 4: was very innate. 1029 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 3: But the reality of what that entailed was something I 1030 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 3: don't think I could have possibly comprehended when I was like, 1031 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 3: it's fine, I love you, it's you know, it's all good, 1032 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 3: which it has become.

Once I started to realize this is 1035 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 3: actually going to be more about my body than you am, 1036 00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 3: and that's really a tough pill to swallow. 1037 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 2: And also like even in the lead up, like you're 1038 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 2: injecting yourself with hormones. 1039 00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, towards the end I was. 1040 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,800 Speaker 3: So we did i UI three attempts.

From my end, I 1115 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 3: had a real strategy to get us on air, and 1116 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,879 Speaker 3: I knew coming from I did radio in a very 1117 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 3: small little town called Shepherd and the ice capital of 1118 00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 3: the world, and it's rough. 1119 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:21,560 Speaker 4: And it's small. 1120 00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:24,359 Speaker 3: So for me to go Shepherd in to Sydney from 1121 00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 3: a radio perspective was a pretty big jump. And I'm 1122 00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,400 Speaker 3: a big law of attraction girl, so I believed and 1123 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:33,799 Speaker 3: backed myself. But it was a very strategic affair.

But I think often I 1148 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:46,680 Speaker 4: used to think helping or. 1149 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 3: Charity work was the way that you give back, And 1150 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 3: now I've felt I feel much more confident giving back 1151 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:55,200 Speaker 3: in the way that I know my purpose is so 1152 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:58,840 Speaker 3: using my media and using those kinds of trainings and 1153 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:03,240 Speaker 3: skill set and following to be able to then somehow 1154 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 3: get to a bigger audience to make people feel better 1155 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,680 Speaker 3: about themselves and find their own point of difference. 1156 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:11,759 Speaker 4: How that looks, I don't know. 1157 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 3: You know, I can see myself on stage, I can 1158 00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:17,200 Speaker 3: see myself doing a lot more talking, like speaking engagements, 1159 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 3: because I miss. 1160 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:22,239 Speaker 4: That live element that radio gives me. 1161 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 3: And I think I've got another book in me already. Yeah, 1162 00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:32,439 Speaker 3: but I don't know much more than that. I want 1163 00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 3: to be a mom. I want to be a good mum. 1164 00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 3: I want to have a couple of kids. I want 1165 00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:38,600 Speaker 3: to smash them out for a bit. And I know 1166 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 3: that things will be different for me in probably five 1167 00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 3: or six years, but for the next two I think 1168 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 3: it will be very much built on just kind of 1169 00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,399 Speaker 3: nourishing that family life and trying to find that new 1170 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:56,960 Speaker 3: balance of creating and keeping that essence of who I 1171 00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:01,000 Speaker 3: am individually as a woman, but also really just enjoying 1172 00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 3: being a mum. 1173 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 2: Do you know what you said? 1174 00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 1: And it was almost throw away, but I loved it. 1175 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:08,480 Speaker 1: You were like, I'll keep doing radio metality stuff. 1176 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:11,799 Speaker 4: If it feels right. Yeah, And that's to me. 1177 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 1: That means everything you do in those fields will be 1178 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 1: helping people, because you'll only be doing things that are 1179 00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:19,840 Speaker 1: aligned with your values. 1180 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:24,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, and not there's no ambition behind it now. It's 1181 00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:27,239 Speaker 3: still obviously nice that you'd like to earn. They pay 1182 00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:30,600 Speaker 3: pretty well from a monetary perspective, and that will help. 1183 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:34,239 Speaker 3: And there's also notoriety and ego and all those things 1184 00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:36,080 Speaker 3: that are built into those kinds of jobs. I'm very 1185 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:38,759 Speaker 3: aware of that, and those things feel good I do. 1186 00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 3: When I go to a radio station, I feel like 1187 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 3: I'm going to work. I feel like I've got my 1188 00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 3: job set like it does, feel like I did my 1189 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:46,520 Speaker 3: apprenticeship and that's what I know how to do. 1190 00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, so it does. There's something really great about the 1191 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:52,560 Speaker 4: radio studio for me. I love it and I feel 1192 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:53,280 Speaker 4: very at. 1193 00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:55,000 Speaker 3: Home and I feel like I'm very good at it. 1194 00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:57,200 Speaker 3: So yeah, it just is this essence. So I'm not 1195 00:54:57,239 --> 00:54:59,239 Speaker 3: going to say that that doesn't have all these other 1196 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,439 Speaker 3: things caught up, but it's got to fit my life now. 1197 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 3: It can't just be because I want to climb somewhere. Now, 1198 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:07,080 Speaker 3: it's got to be Okay, does this work to me 1199 00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:09,200 Speaker 3: this year and then again next year. And it was 1200 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:10,960 Speaker 3: just a bit of a bit by bit because I 1201 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:13,960 Speaker 3: guess that's what being a parent like this is crazy 1202 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:16,799 Speaker 3: to think. Even hearing myself back speaking, I was like, 1203 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,880 Speaker 3: I get really nervous thinking about saying things like I 1204 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,319 Speaker 3: want to be a mum, you know, and having that 1205 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 3: as the main center it's still nerve racking to think 1206 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,839 Speaker 3: that even next year I have to put together will 1207 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:31,400 Speaker 3: not have to but I want to put together an 1208 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 3: attorney plan to make sure I'm at home for a 1209 00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:37,479 Speaker 3: period of time. I've never not worked, you know, that's 1210 00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:41,240 Speaker 3: my life, so it is. It's still really nerve racking 1211 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:43,920 Speaker 3: to say for the next bit that's going to be 1212 00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 3: my main priority. 1213 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 2: And that's also exciting though. 1214 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:51,239 Speaker 1: And I was at a meeting before I came here, 1215 00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:53,839 Speaker 1: and what I love about you, which is the prerequisite 1216 00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:57,120 Speaker 1: for anyone that comes on this podcast, is you've just 1217 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:58,640 Speaker 1: got to march to the beat of your own drum. 1218 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 1: That's the only I need to be. I know, I'm 1219 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 1: a nutritionist. It doesn't mean to be health based or anything. 1220 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:05,200 Speaker 1: It's just gonna be someone that marches to the beat 1221 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:07,760 Speaker 1: of their own drum. And you've just articulated that perfectly, 1222 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:11,000 Speaker 1: have I You have because you'll take gigs if it 1223 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:14,720 Speaker 1: feels right. Yes, radio feels like home, but you're focused 1224 00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:17,440 Speaker 1: on nourishing your family. As fucking scary as that sounds, 1225 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:19,120 Speaker 1: so full on, do you know what I mean? Though 1226 00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 1: You're you're still marching is a bit of your drum. 1227 00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:24,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, because that was what where I'm at today?

Yeah, 1233 00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:40,319 Speaker 3: I feel like I don't need to. 1234 00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 4: Know as much anymore. 1235 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:45,200 Speaker 2: Oh, you're empowering me. I'm a planner, yeah. 1236 00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:47,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I just feel like I want to let 1237 00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:49,640 Speaker 3: go of the plan a bit and just enjoy my 1238 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:52,719 Speaker 3: life a bit more. And if that stuff comes up, 1239 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:54,239 Speaker 3: then it's meant to come up. I've just got a 1240 00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 3: real trust now that the right things will find me. 1241 00:56:58,080 --> 00:56:59,959 Speaker 3: And like you said you on my website, I'm busy 1242 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 3: doing bits and pieces, and sometimes you fall out of 1243 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 3: a groove because you work for yourself and you think, oh, 1244 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 3: I could have done more this week, or you know, 1245 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,160 Speaker 3: when you're not working at a station or you're working 1246 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,719 Speaker 3: in a business. You know, sure, But I think at 1247 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 3: the end of the day, when you trust yourself and 1248 00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:17,440 Speaker 3: you do want to put stuff out there or you 1249 00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 3: do want to contribute, what you're doing at the time 1250 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:24,480 Speaker 3: is enough totally if it's coming from that juicy place. 1251 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:26,560 Speaker 3: It doesn't have to look the same as that nine 1252 00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:29,560 Speaker 3: to five person or the girl you were three years ago. 1253 00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:32,080 Speaker 3: You know, it will work itself out in the wash, 1254 00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:34,960 Speaker 3: Like I do love that saying totally works itself out 1255 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 3: in the wash. 1256 00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,400 Speaker 1: Do you know you had three failures planned to talk 1257 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,320 Speaker 1: about and we've just ended up talking about it. 1258 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:42,680 Speaker 4: I did have them, ready, Did we take any of 1259 00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 4: them off? 1260 00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 1: Well? 1261 00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:46,800 Speaker 3: I think I felt like at the time when we 1262 00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 3: lost the radio show, that was a failure. Like I 1263 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,880 Speaker 3: felt like there was a level of legacy and kind 1264 00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 3: of that real girl power thing that we had that 1265 00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:58,440 Speaker 3: I felt like we had fallen short of where we 1266 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 3: would have liked to have gone. But then all of 1267 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:06,000 Speaker 3: the places that I just explained I've landed couldn't have happened. 1268 00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 3: Still living in that strategy, I'm a completely different person, 1269 00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:14,160 Speaker 3: you know. I don't even know how it would have 1270 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:17,320 Speaker 3: worked to bring me to this point doing the show 1271 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:20,000 Speaker 3: I was doing. I'm such a you know, And I 1272 00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:23,040 Speaker 3: hope that that all took care of itself for both 1273 00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:26,440 Speaker 3: of us, because really we're on such different trajectories and 1274 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:30,040 Speaker 3: very different people that potentially, if we had have continued 1275 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:32,320 Speaker 3: doing the show, would we have not had that growth, 1276 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:34,000 Speaker 3: you know, or would I not have had the growth 1277 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:37,640 Speaker 3: that I've had. So yeah, at the time, it definitely 1278 00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 3: felt like it failed and I failed myself and I'd 1279 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:45,600 Speaker 3: failed my business and I've failed the audience. But yeah, 1280 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:49,080 Speaker 3: I don't, I don't know, I don't really have regrets. 1281 00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,640 Speaker 1: I love that. Do you know one thing that you've 1282 00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 1: just kind of said that makes me feel like this 1283 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:55,760 Speaker 1: is going to sound like a really weird way to 1284 00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:57,760 Speaker 1: talk about the think of girls, but almost like a 1285 00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 1: really beautiful breakup where you just set someone else free 1286 00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 1: to let them pursue their dreams and allows you to 1287 00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:04,360 Speaker 1: pursue yours as well. 1288 00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 2: Because it was two people. 1289 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, it's a beautiful like setting free of one 1290 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 1: another because you are doing such completely different things now. 1291 00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:16,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think I think as well, without that, 1292 00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:19,880 Speaker 3: sometimes you do need a bit of a crash. Yeah, 1293 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:23,280 Speaker 3: Like there's codependency that grows with that. You very much 1294 00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:26,520 Speaker 3: need you link to each other, like a breakup, and 1295 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 3: sometimes you need something to happen for it to go 1296 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:31,840 Speaker 3: that way. And I think sometimes I think I wish 1297 00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 3: I could have been strong enough to maybe see that 1298 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 3: in myself that you know, maybe we could have. 1299 00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 4: I don't know. No, actually, I don't think anything differently. 1300 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 3: I think we it just needed to happen the way 1301 00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 3: it did for it to work out this way. 1302 00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:45,680 Speaker 1: I think it's perfect. 1303 00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:51,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, so yeah, it's an interesting thing. I'm 1304 00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:54,520 Speaker 3: trying to think if I had any other failures in that.

My god, no, no, no, And look, 1337 01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,640 Speaker 3: I realized there were parts of myself I wasn't I 1338 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 3: didn't behave very well. 1339 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:15,520 Speaker 4: But it wasn't a healthy relationship either. 1340 01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:19,560 Speaker 3: There's no reason for me to engage in that part 1341 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:21,440 Speaker 3: of my life. It was definitely something I had to 1342 01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:23,680 Speaker 3: learn from and move on from fast totally. 1343 01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 1: And I'm sure that'll be in your book. But those 1344 01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:29,760 Speaker 1: those shitty breakups actually end up being these wonderful gifts. 1345 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:34,320 Speaker 4: Well yet hopefully I make a shitload of money from it. Yeah, 1346 01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:36,200 Speaker 4: you don't make money from books? Are you going to 1347 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 4: tell about another person? Tells me that? All right? 1348 01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:42,040 Speaker 1: No, But what I mean is the gift is, like 1349 01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:45,080 Speaker 1: you date all these numpties or narcissists or these you 1350 01:01:45,120 --> 01:01:47,960 Speaker 1: get these lessons and then eventually, when a good one comes, you're. 1351 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:49,320 Speaker 4: Like, ah, it's true. 1352 01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 1: You know, it becomes like a gift. 1353 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 4: And yeah, it's true. 1354 01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:53,560 Speaker 3: And I was going to call the book I didn't 1355 01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 3: have a bad date dot com like yeah, because I 1356 01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:58,960 Speaker 3: felt that's what the book's about, essentially that every single 1357 01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:02,760 Speaker 3: date I learned. Yeah, every single date I learned more 1358 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:03,960 Speaker 3: about what I wanted. 1359 01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:07,640 Speaker 1: And there's something that this is sneaking something off the 1360 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:10,480 Speaker 1: podcast where you interviewed me and you asked about my 1361 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,960 Speaker 1: boyfriend and you referred to his depth. And I could 1362 01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:16,920 Speaker 1: tell that it was said because that's. 1363 01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:18,440 Speaker 2: Your experience with Ben. 1364 01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:22,760 Speaker 1: He could feel, and then obviously really diving and researching Ben, 1365 01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:25,560 Speaker 1: there's this sense of depth to him which is reflected 1366 01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:27,720 Speaker 1: in you as well. But I feel like that that 1367 01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:31,880 Speaker 1: listening to your journey introjectory, that's probably a cornerstone of 1368 01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:35,040 Speaker 1: your whole being, Like this deep, deep connection. 1369 01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think you don't get that without really 1370 01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:41,280 Speaker 3: having the fuck ups or the failures and you know 1371 01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 3: all that kind of stuff. 1372 01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:45,680 Speaker 4: So it is funny. It's and the same thing I 1373 01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:46,880 Speaker 4: say to him all the time. 1374 01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 3: And we have a single friend that's a bit like, 1375 01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:50,560 Speaker 3: oh am I going to be single for you know this? 1376 01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:52,960 Speaker 3: And I was like, honestly, I don't even know if 1377 01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 3: I would have been with Ben if I met him 1378 01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 3: six months before we met total, you know, like you 1379 01:02:57,880 --> 01:02:59,720 Speaker 3: just don't know, and you don't want to rush it 1380 01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:05,439 Speaker 3: because you could just find yourself in the same room 1381 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:08,640 Speaker 3: as the perfect person. But you've pushed it, you know, 1382 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:11,320 Speaker 3: and then you've know you've gotten in the way. 1383 01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 4: Get out of your own way. 1384 01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:15,840 Speaker 2: Did you feel anything when you first met Ben. 1385 01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:17,320 Speaker 4: No, it wasn't like this. 1386 01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:21,120 Speaker 3: It wasn't like it was a sense of knowing and 1387 01:03:21,360 --> 01:03:24,360 Speaker 3: definitely a sense of intriguing and curiosity, like kind of 1388 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,320 Speaker 3: like you can see something through a hole. 1389 01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:27,720 Speaker 4: And you're like, what's in there? 1390 01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:32,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, like magically too, but not butterflies, and 1391 01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:36,040 Speaker 3: like I've met the one, and you know, we we 1392 01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:39,080 Speaker 3: did go for an afternoon drink, and then it was 1393 01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:41,960 Speaker 3: another one, and then you know, dinner, and then after 1394 01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:44,400 Speaker 3: like it went on for hour pretty much the whole 1395 01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 3: day and night and at the end, but we had 1396 01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 3: such a good time and I thought to myself, please 1397 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:51,800 Speaker 3: kiss me, because I need to know this is not 1398 01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:55,160 Speaker 3: just this amazing day that we've just become friends. And 1399 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:57,320 Speaker 3: then he did, He did this most amazing kiss. It 1400 01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 3: wasn't like in full on, but it wasn't like a 1401 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,120 Speaker 3: friend kiss, you know. It was a very much this 1402 01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:05,640 Speaker 3: is not a friend kiss goodbye, you know, And so 1403 01:04:05,680 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 3: it was like, okay, what's part two? You know, what's 1404 01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:10,400 Speaker 3: part three? So it was more like, give me the 1405 01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:12,000 Speaker 3: next bit, give me the next bit. But it was 1406 01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:15,360 Speaker 3: very step by step because Ben's very grounded, so he 1407 01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:19,200 Speaker 3: gives a lot, but he's very set, and so that 1408 01:04:19,320 --> 01:04:20,320 Speaker 3: was so attractive. 1409 01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:23,440 Speaker 4: He was so very calmly confident. 1410 01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:26,800 Speaker 3: There was no extrovert about him, but he could have 1411 01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:30,440 Speaker 3: a big conversation, so there was levels of intrigue. You know, 1412 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:34,000 Speaker 3: we were able to build it. It wasn't this yeah, 1413 01:04:34,040 --> 01:04:35,880 Speaker 3: this kind of fairy tale that we're sold. 1414 01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:37,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it got. 1415 01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 3: There, and you know, it was pretty magical. And I 1416 01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:42,080 Speaker 3: couldn't and I still can't what the smile off. You know, 1417 01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:45,440 Speaker 3: it's still that, but I think it's not necessarily like, 1418 01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:49,080 Speaker 3: oh my god, you know, I get butterflies. And I 1419 01:04:49,120 --> 01:04:51,080 Speaker 3: went I went home and I was like, that was awesome. 1420 01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:52,760 Speaker 3: And then I went to bed and got up and 1421 01:04:52,760 --> 01:04:55,320 Speaker 3: went to work. Yeah, and I was looking forward to 1422 01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:58,240 Speaker 3: him writing a message, but it wasn't. 1423 01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:01,439 Speaker 1: Like but I feel like probably the more the real deal, 1424 01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:05,280 Speaker 1: Like it is almost this I've read where you actually 1425 01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:08,640 Speaker 1: want like a cool love, a coolness to the love 1426 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:12,000 Speaker 1: as opposed to it.

So this is where I would say you work 1433 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,680 Speaker 1: on yourself as well, because that takes a certain sense 1434 01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:28,880 Speaker 1: of self understanding. Yeah. 1435 01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:30,360 Speaker 3: You like I got up and went to work because 1436 01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:31,560 Speaker 3: I had a job and I was happy with my 1437 01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 3: job and I liked my life.
