The week that was, So, 10 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm kind of in that kind of 11 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: like work hustle grind mode, and I'm really bad at 12 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: clicking out of it. So I'm really good at clicking 13 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: into it and just kind of like committing. But then 14 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: when it comes from just fixing my head phones, you know, 15 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: your headphones are on the brink when they just want 16 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 1: to not fully work. But we're here, We're here. Yeah, 17 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: I've been in this kind of like work grind work mode. 18 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: I think I've talked to you a few couple of 19 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: times about like I'm really in the zone of like 20 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 1: focused on getting an acting agent and a voiceover agent, 21 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: and I'm just getting a few little setbacks with that 22 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 1: not setbacks, just like I thought it'd be kind of 23 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 1: smooth sailing, and it hasn't been, and that's totally normal. 24 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: It's I think I just went in a little bit, 25 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: not even ignorant, but just like, oh yeah, I'll say, 26 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: my reels and my demos and my American dialect and 27 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: my Ausie dialect and my New York you know, and 28 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: I thought it would be like, yeah, a very clear 29 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: road to it, and it's totally not. 30 00:01:58,040 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 2: And I think that that is quite normal. 31 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: I think the acting path is wrought with a lot 32 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: of rejection. I just was so prepared for that rejection 33 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: in LA but then back in Australia, I've thought, well, no, like, 34 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: I've got a career that I've built over, you know, 35 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: fifteen years or so, I'm going to be able to 36 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: do this. And it's just harder than I expected. So 37 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: I've kind of been in this real work grind for 38 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: probably the last couple of weeks now. And if I'm 39 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: being really honest with you, because I'm in the throes 40 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: of quite a lot of rejection, which I'm learning is 41 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: just part of the game. I've kind of been in 42 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 1: this like must get work done, but also like slightly 43 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: flatter mentality. And I've practiced a lot of self care 44 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: things like going for walks on the beach with friends 45 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: and like doing fun face masks and all the fun things, 46 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: whitening my teeth, you know, all the things that make 47 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: you feel really like you're looking after yourself. But I 48 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: haven't really exhaled and just kind of like not even 49 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 1: let loose, but just done something for fun. And I 50 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: had therapy this week and I was like, I am 51 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: doing everything right that is in my control and still 52 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: feels yuck.

That bit is optional, by the way, 253 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: you don't have to do that. I just love creamy flavors. 254 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: And then I chop up some strawbs and blue and 255 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 1: then throw some bloobs in and then I found this 256 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 1: sweetener that's made from monk fruit called le canto amazing again, 257 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: got it at Woolies and then just put some cinnamon 258 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 1: on top and some crushed seeds.

But I just 261 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 1: started waking up and I was like, oh, I'm kind 262 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 1: of hungry, and you know, you get that super like nauseousy. 263 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 2: Hungry kind of feeling. 264 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: I was like, do you know what, I'm going to 265 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: start hacking myself a great brecky. 266 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: And when I was. 267 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: Doing IVF, I was having like porridge every single morning, 268 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: but it felt a bit heavy up.

So I'm on 274 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: the cheapood bandwagon at the moment. And there is no correlation, 275 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: by the way, versus the IVF to why I'm having 276 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: cheerpoods now other than I was obviously a lot hungry 277 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: then when I was injecting hormones for IVF, and since 278 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: now I'm back like bar and Modent, I'm exercising quite 279 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: a lot more Like I'm either doing Polarate Personal Trainer, 280 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: which I've just a fresh starting, or I go for 281 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: a massive beach walk or do yogs.
