  grew
• 1:32
  up
• 1:32
  in
• 1:32
  Halifax.
• 1:34
  but
• 1:34
  I
• 1:34
  took
• 1:34
  a
• 1:34
  little
• 1:34
  detour
• 1:35
  when
• 1:36
  I
• 1:36
  was
• 1:36
  in
• 1:36
  my
• 1:37
  twenties.
• 1:37
  I,
• 1:38
  ended
• 1:38
  up
• 1:38
  In
• 1:39
  the
• 1:39
  music
• 1:40
  industry
• 1:40
  here
• 1:40
  in
• 1:40
  Canada,
• 1:41
  and
• 1:42
  I
• 1:42
  toured
• 1:42
  around
• 1:43
  the
• 1:43
  country
• 1:44
  with
• 1:44
  my
• 1:44
  band.
• 1:45
  I
• 1:45
  was
• 1:45
  in
• 1:45
  two
• 1:45
  bands.
• 1:46
  I
• 1:46
  had
• 1:46
  Ruby
• 1:47
  Jean
• 1:47
  and
• 1:47
  the
• 1:47
  Thoughtful
• 1:47
  Bees.
• 1:48
  It
• 1:48
  was
• 1:48
  the
• 1:49
  first
• 1:49
  live
• 1:50
  electronic
• 1:50
  dance
• 1:51
  band
• 1:51
  East
• 1:51
  of
• 1:51
  Montreal.
• 1:52
  And
• 1:52
  then
• 1:52
  my
• 1:53
  own
• 1:53
  solo
• 1:53
  project,
• 1:54
  Rebecca
• 1:54
  Higgs.
• 1:55
  and
• 1:55
  I
• 1:55
  released
• 1:56
  an
• 1:56
  album
• 1:57
  in
• 1:58
  2007
• 1:58
  on
• 1:58
  Outside
• 1:58
  Music.
• 1:59
  And
• 2:00
  then
• 2:00
  my
• 2:00
  second
• 2:00
  album
• 2:01
  came
• 2:01
  out
• 2:01
  on
• 2:01
  Hidden
• 2:02
  Pony,
• 2:02
  which
• 2:02
  was
• 2:03
  a
• 2:03
  subdivision
• 2:03
  of
• 2:04
  EMI,
• 2:05
  and
• 2:05
  in
• 2:05
  my
• 2:05
  twenties,
• 2:06
  I
• 2:06
  had
• 2:07
  a
• 2:07
  management
• 2:07
  team
• 2:08
  and
• 2:08
  I
• 2:08
  was
• 2:08
  signed
• 2:09
  to,
• 2:09
  a
• 2:09
  touring
• 2:10
  agency
• 2:11
  and
• 2:11
  I
• 2:11
  was
• 2:11
  playing
• 2:11
  all
• 2:11
  kinds
• 2:12
  of
• 2:12
  festivals
• 2:12
  and
• 2:12
  it
• 2:12
  was
• 2:13
  a
• 2:13
  really
• 2:13
  interesting
• 2:14
  time
• 2:15
  of
• 2:15
  my
• 2:15
  life.
• 2:16
  eventually
• 2:17
  I
• 2:17
  moved
• 2:17
  to
• 2:17
  Toronto
• 2:18
  to
• 2:18
  be
• 2:18
  more
• 2:19
  central
• 2:19
  in
• 2:19
  Canada
• 2:20
  for
• 2:20
  my
• 2:20
  music
• 2:20
  career.
• 2:21
  but
• 2:21
  things
• 2:22
  kind
• 2:22
  of
• 2:22
  went
• 2:23
  downhill
• 2:23
  at
• 2:24
  that
• 2:24
  point.
• 2:24
  I
• 2:25
  was
• 2:26
  kind
• 2:26
  of
• 2:26
  in
• 2:26
  the
• 2:27
  the
• 2:28
  slag
• 2:28
  of
• 2:29
  making
• 2:29
  enough
• 2:29
  money
• 2:30
  to
• 2:30
  pay
• 2:30
  rent
• 2:31
  and
• 2:31
  waitressing
• 2:32
  and
• 2:33
  the
• 2:33
  boyfriend
• 2:34
  that
• 2:34
  I
• 2:34
  had
• 2:34
  moved
• 2:34
  to
• 2:34
  Toronto
• 2:35
  with
• 2:35
  and
• 2:35
  I
• 2:35
  split
• 2:36
  up
• 2:36
  over,
• 2:37
  he,
• 2:37
  his
• 2:37
  father
• 2:38
  became
• 2:38
  very
• 2:38
  ill.
• 2:38
  He
• 2:38
  had
• 2:38
  to
• 2:38
  move
• 2:39
  back
• 2:39
  to
• 2:39
  Nova
• 2:39
  Scotia.
• 2:40
  So
• 2:40
  I
• 2:40
  was
• 2:40
  very
• 2:40
  heartbroken
• 2:42
  and
• 2:42
  in
• 2:42
  that
• 2:42
  dark
• 2:43
  time
• 2:43
  of
• 2:43
  my
• 2:43
  life
• 2:44
  where
• 2:44
  I
• 2:44
  was
• 2:44
  feeling
• 2:45
  a
• 2:45
  little
• 2:45
  bit
• 2:45
  lost,
• 2:45
  my
• 2:46
  career
• 2:46
  was
• 2:46
  sort
• 2:46
  of
• 2:47
  on
• 2:47
  the
• 2:47
  fringes
• 2:48
  and
• 2:49
  I
• 2:49
  was
• 2:49
  on
• 2:49
  my
• 2:49
  own
• 2:50
  in
• 2:50
  a
• 2:50
  city
• 2:50
  without
• 2:50
  my
• 2:50
  family.
• 2:51
  I
• 2:52
  just.
• 2:52
  Started
• 2:53
  making
• 2:53
  bad
• 2:54
  decisions,
• 2:54
  and
• 2:55
  I
• 2:55
  ended
• 2:55
  up
• 2:55
  getting
• 2:55
  pregnant
• 2:56
  very
• 2:56
  quickly
• 2:57
  into
• 2:57
  a
• 2:57
  new
• 2:57
  relationship
• 2:58
  with
• 2:58
  a
• 2:58
  guy
• 2:58
  who
• 2:59
  Ended
• 2:59
  up
• 3:00
  being
• 3:00
  quite
• 3:01
  toxic
• 3:01
  for
• 3:01
  me.
• 3:02
  So
• 3:03
  after
• 3:03
  my
• 3:03
  daughter
• 3:03
  was
• 3:04
  born
• 3:06
  I
• 3:07
  ended
• 3:07
  up
• 3:09
  just
• 3:09
  knowing
• 3:09
  that
• 3:09
  I
• 3:10
  couldn't
• 3:10
  stay
• 3:10
  in
• 3:10
  that
• 3:10
  relationship
• 3:11
  any
• 3:11
  longer
• 3:12
  and
• 3:13
  started
• 3:14
  to
• 3:14
  make
• 3:14
  plans
• 3:15
  of
• 3:15
  how
• 3:15
  I
• 3:15
  could
• 3:16
  get
• 3:16
  out
• 3:16
  of
• 3:16
  the
• 3:16
  situation
• 3:17
  I
• 3:17
  was
• 3:17
  in.
• 3:18
  So
• 3:18
  I
• 3:19
  ended
• 3:19
  up
• 3:19
  taking
• 3:19
  my
• 3:20
  daughter
• 3:20
  and
• 3:20
  moving
• 3:20
  into
• 3:21
  a
• 3:21
  one
• 3:21
  bedroom
• 3:21
  apartment
• 3:22
  that
• 3:22
  a
• 3:22
  friend
• 3:22
  of
• 3:22
  mine
• 3:23
  had
• 3:23
  in
• 3:24
  Toronto.
• 3:24
  He
• 3:24
  had
• 3:24
  moved
• 3:25
  to
• 3:25
  New
• 3:25
  York
• 3:25
  as
• 3:25
  an
• 3:25
  artist,
• 3:26
  let
• 3:26
  me
• 3:26
  stay
• 3:27
  there.
• 3:27
  And
• 3:28
  within
• 3:28
  that
• 3:28
  time,
• 3:28
  my
• 3:29
  grandmother
• 3:29
  passed
• 3:29
  away.
• 3:30
  And
• 3:30
  I
• 3:30
  came
• 3:30
  back
• 3:31
  to
• 3:31
  Halifax
• 3:31
  for
• 3:32
  three
• 3:32
  weeks
• 3:33
  with
• 3:33
  my
• 3:33
  daughter.
• 3:34
  And
• 3:35
  upon
• 3:36
  my
• 3:36
  return
• 3:36
  to
• 3:38
  Toronto,
• 3:38
  I
• 3:38
  had
• 3:38
  gone
• 3:39
  to
• 3:39
  legal
• 3:39
  aid
• 3:39
  and
• 3:40
  gotten
• 3:40
  a
• 3:40
  lawyer
• 3:41
  and
• 3:41
  started
• 3:42
  making
• 3:42
  plans
• 3:42
  to
• 3:43
  see
• 3:43
  if
• 3:43
  I
• 3:43
  could
• 3:43
  move
• 3:43
  back
• 3:44
  to
• 3:44
  Nova
• 3:44
  Scotia.
• 3:44
  If
• 3:45
  you've
• 3:45
  ever
• 3:45
  been
• 3:46
  in
• 3:46
  a
• 3:46
  relationship
• 3:47
  where
• 3:47
  you've
• 3:47
  had
• 3:47
  a
• 3:47
  child
• 3:48
  out
• 3:48
  of
• 3:48
  a,
• 3:49
  in
• 3:49
  a
• 3:49
  different
• 3:49
  province
• 3:49
  and
• 3:49
  you
• 3:49
  want
• 3:50
  to
• 3:50
  move
• 3:50
  back
• 3:50
  to
• 3:50
  a
• 3:50
  different
• 3:50
  province,
• 3:51
  it
• 3:51
  can
• 3:51
  be
• 3:51
  quite
• 3:52
  difficult
• 3:52
  to
• 3:52
  do
• 3:52
  so.
• 3:53
  And
• 3:53
  it's
• 3:53
  not,
• 3:53
  the
• 3:54
  opportunity
• 3:54
  is
• 3:54
  not
• 3:54
  always,
• 3:55
  available
• 3:56
  to
• 3:56
  you,
• 3:57
  in
• 3:57
  that
• 3:58
  period
• 3:58
  that
• 3:58
  I
• 3:58
  went
• 3:59
  away,
• 3:59
  went
• 4:00
  to
• 4:00
  Halifax.
• 4:00
  And
• 4:01
  then
• 4:01
  when
• 4:01
  I
• 4:01
  came
• 4:01
  home,
• 4:02
  my
• 4:02
  daughter's
• 4:03
  father
• 4:04
  said
• 4:04
  to
• 4:04
  me
• 4:05
  upon
• 4:05
  my
• 4:05
  return,
• 4:06
  you
• 4:06
  can
• 4:07
  move
• 4:07
  back
• 4:07
  to
• 4:07
  Halifax.
• 4:08
  I
• 4:08
  think
• 4:08
  it'd
• 4:08
  be
• 4:08
  better
• 4:08
  for
• 4:08
  you.
• 4:09
  So
• 4:09
  that
• 4:10
  was
• 4:10
  a
• 4:10
  blessing
• 4:11
  in,
• 4:12
  that
• 4:12
  was
• 4:12
  a
• 4:12
  huge
• 4:12
  blessing
• 4:13
  in
• 4:13
  a
• 4:13
  way.
• 4:13
  He
• 4:13
  signed
• 4:14
  the
• 4:14
  papers.
• 4:14
  He
• 4:14
  allowed
• 4:14
  us
• 4:15
  to
• 4:15
  move
• 4:15
  back.
• 4:15
  And
• 4:15
  by
• 4:15
  the
• 4:15
  time
• 4:16
  my
• 4:16
  daughter
• 4:16
  was
• 4:16
  one,
• 4:17
  I'd
• 4:17
  come
• 4:17
  back
• 4:17
  to
• 4:18
  Nova
• 4:18
  Scotia.
• 4:19
  So
• 4:19
  I
• 4:19
  needed
• 4:20
  to
• 4:21
  pivot.
• 4:22
  Create
• 4:22
  a
• 4:22
  new
• 4:22
  career
• 4:23
  for
• 4:23
  myself.
• 4:23
  And
• 4:24
  I
• 4:24
  just
• 4:25
  didn't
• 4:25
  feel
• 4:25
  like
• 4:26
  music
• 4:26
  was
• 4:27
  viable
• 4:28
  anymore.
• 4:29
  The
• 4:29
  culture
• 4:30
  around
• 4:30
  music
• 4:30
  was
• 4:30
  changing.
• 4:31
  This
• 4:31
  was
• 4:32
  when.
• 4:32
  Apple
• 4:33
  music,
• 4:33
  every,
• 4:34
  everything
• 4:34
  was
• 4:34
  streaming.
• 4:35
  just
• 4:36
  the
• 4:36
  labels
• 4:37
  were
• 4:37
  dropping
• 4:38
  artists
• 4:38
  or
• 4:39
  not
• 4:39
  giving,
• 4:40
  the
• 4:40
  same
• 4:40
  kind
• 4:40
  of
• 4:41
  advances
• 4:41
  that
• 4:41
  you
• 4:41
  once
• 4:42
  got
• 4:42
  as
• 4:42
  a
• 4:42
  musician.
• 4:43
  it
• 4:43
  would,
• 4:44
  I
• 4:44
  would
• 4:44
  have
• 4:44
  to
• 4:44
  get
• 4:45
  back
• 4:45
  into
• 4:45
  the
• 4:46
  sort
• 4:46
  of
• 4:46
  like
• 4:46
  the
• 4:46
  grant
• 4:47
  writing
• 4:47
  and
• 4:48
  all
• 4:48
  these
• 4:48
  other
• 4:48
  things,
• 4:48
  which
• 4:49
  were
• 4:49
  available
• 4:49
  to
• 4:49
  me
• 4:49
  in
• 4:49
  Nova
• 4:50
  Scotia,
• 4:50
  but
• 4:50
  I
• 4:51
  just
• 4:51
  didn't
• 4:51
  feel
• 4:51
  like
• 4:52
  I
• 4:52
  wanted
• 4:53
  to
• 4:53
  continue
• 4:54
  down
• 4:54
  that
• 4:54
  path.
• 4:55
  So
• 4:55
  I
• 4:55
  was
• 4:55
  like,
• 4:55
  okay,
• 4:55
  I
• 4:56
  have
• 4:56
  to
• 4:56
  start
• 4:56
  fresh.
• 4:57
  And
• 4:57
  I
• 4:57
  had
• 4:57
  a
• 4:58
  friend
• 4:58
  that
• 4:58
  was
• 4:58
  in
• 4:58
  the
• 4:58
  film
• 4:58
  industry
• 4:59
  here
• 4:59
  in
• 4:59
  Nova
• 4:59
  Scotia.
• 5:01
  And
• 5:01
  he
• 5:02
  said
• 5:03
  that
• 5:03
  I
• 5:03
  could
• 5:03
  come
• 5:03
  in
• 5:03
  as
• 5:04
  an
• 5:04
  assistant,
• 5:05
  for
• 5:05
  casting
• 5:06
  for
• 5:06
  a
• 5:06
  commercial
• 5:07
  for
• 5:07
  down
• 5:07
  at
• 5:07
  Egg
• 5:07
  Films.
• 5:08
  So
• 5:08
  I
• 5:08
  came
• 5:09
  in
• 5:09
  that
• 5:09
  one
• 5:09
  day,
• 5:09
  he
• 5:09
  offered
• 5:10
  me
• 5:10
  a
• 5:10
  hundred
• 5:10
  bucks,
• 5:10
  come
• 5:10
  in,
• 5:11
  help
• 5:11
  me
• 5:11
  with
• 5:11
  casting.
• 5:12
  By
• 5:12
  the
• 5:12
  end
• 5:12
  of
• 5:12
  the
• 5:13
  day,
• 5:13
  he
• 5:13
  said,
• 5:13
  I'll
• 5:13
  give
• 5:13
  you
• 5:13
  150
• 5:14
  dollars.
• 5:14
  You
• 5:14
  were
• 5:14
  the
• 5:15
  best
• 5:15
  casting
• 5:15
  assistant
• 5:16
  I've
• 5:16
  ever
• 5:16
  had.
• 5:17
  And
• 5:17
  then
• 5:18
  by
• 5:18
  the
• 5:19
  next
• 5:19
  day,
• 5:20
  the
• 5:20
  owners
• 5:20
  at
• 5:21
  Egg
• 5:21
  were
• 5:21
  asking
• 5:21
  me,
• 5:22
  who
• 5:22
  am
• 5:22
  I?
• 5:22
  What
• 5:23
  do
• 5:23
  I
• 5:23
  do?
• 5:23
  They
• 5:23
  found
• 5:23
  out
• 5:23
  I
• 5:24
  could
• 5:24
  speak
• 5:24
  French.
• 5:25
  I
• 5:25
  said
• 5:25
  I
• 5:25
  wanted
• 5:25
  to
• 5:26
  maybe
• 5:26
  be
• 5:26
  a
• 5:27
  Producer
• 5:28
  in
• 5:28
  film
• 5:28
  and
• 5:28
  television,
• 5:29
  and
• 5:30
  I
• 5:30
  just
• 5:30
  kept
• 5:30
  showing
• 5:31
  up
• 5:31
  at
• 5:31
  egg
• 5:31
  every
• 5:31
  day
• 5:32
  until
• 5:32
  they
• 5:33
  basically
• 5:34
  Gave
• 5:35
  me
• 5:35
  a
• 5:35
  full
• 5:35
  time
• 5:35
  job
• 5:37
  So
• 5:37
  I
• 5:37
  kind
• 5:37
  of
• 5:37
  inserted
• 5:38
  myself
• 5:38
  into
• 5:38
  the
• 5:38
  film
• 5:39
  industry
• 5:39
  here
• 5:39
  in
• 5:39
  Nova
• 5:39
  Scotia
• 5:41
  and
• 5:41
  I
• 5:41
  did
• 5:41
  that
• 5:42
  for
• 5:43
  a
• 5:43
  brief
• 5:44
  period
• 5:44
  of
• 5:44
  time.
• 5:45
  And
• 5:46
  during
• 5:46
  my
• 5:46
  experience
• 5:47
  of
• 5:47
  working
• 5:48
  in
• 5:48
  film
• 5:48
  and
• 5:48
  television,
• 5:49
  I
• 5:49
  was
• 5:50
  just
• 5:50
  very
• 5:50
  curious.
• 5:50
  I
• 5:51
  would
• 5:51
  talk
• 5:51
  to
• 5:51
  everybody
• 5:52
  on
• 5:52
  set.
• 5:52
  I
• 5:52
  was
• 5:52
  talking
• 5:53
  to
• 5:53
  the
• 5:53
  actors.
• 5:53
  I
• 5:53
  was
• 5:53
  talking
• 5:54
  to
• 5:54
  the
• 5:54
  creative
• 5:55
  agency.
• 5:56
  I
• 5:56
  was
• 5:56
  talking
• 5:56
  to
• 5:57
  the
• 5:57
  clients.
• 5:58
  I
• 5:58
  was
• 5:58
  talking
• 5:59
  to
• 5:59
  the
• 5:59
  producers
• 6:00
  and
• 6:00
  I
• 6:00
  was
• 6:00
  getting
• 6:01
  this
• 6:01
  whole
• 6:01
  sense
• 6:02
  of
• 6:02
  basically
• 6:02
  how
• 6:03
  the
• 6:03
  whole
• 6:03
  commercial
• 6:03
  industry
• 6:04
  worked.
• 6:05
  and
• 6:05
  through
• 6:05
  my
• 6:05
  research
• 6:06
  in
• 6:06
  marketing
• 6:07
  and
• 6:08
  film
• 6:08
  and
• 6:08
  television,
• 6:09
  there
• 6:09
  was
• 6:10
  this
• 6:10
  Trend
• 6:11
  that
• 6:11
  was
• 6:11
  starting
• 6:12
  to
• 6:12
  happen
• 6:12
  where
• 6:13
  people
• 6:13
  were
• 6:13
  saying
• 6:13
  that
• 6:14
  the
• 6:14
  next
• 6:14
  big
• 6:16
  trend
• 6:17
  in
• 6:17
  marketing
• 6:17
  was
• 6:18
  going
• 6:18
  to
• 6:18
  be
• 6:18
  branded
• 6:19
  content.
• 6:20
  And
• 6:20
  this
• 6:20
  is
• 6:20
  before
• 6:20
  we
• 6:20
  knew
• 6:21
  anything
• 6:21
  about
• 6:21
  influencer
• 6:22
  marketing,
• 6:22
  or
• 6:23
  that
• 6:23
  was
• 6:23
  really
• 6:24
  a
• 6:24
  big
• 6:24
  thing,
• 6:24
  in
• 6:25
  Instagram
• 6:25
  was
• 6:26
  kind
• 6:26
  of
• 6:26
  just
• 6:26
  starting
• 6:27
  early
• 6:27
  days
• 6:28
  of
• 6:28
  Instagram.
• 6:29
  So
• 6:29
  I
• 6:29
  started
• 6:29
  thinking
• 6:29
  like,
• 6:30
  what
• 6:30
  would
• 6:30
  my
• 6:30
  brand
• 6:31
  be
• 6:31
  if
• 6:31
  I
• 6:31
  could
• 6:32
  have
• 6:32
  my
• 6:32
  own
• 6:33
  brand?
• 6:34
  And
• 6:35
  As
• 6:35
  an
• 6:36
  indie
• 6:36
  musician,
• 6:37
  we
• 6:38
  often
• 6:38
  use
• 6:38
  the
• 6:38
  word
• 6:39
  DIY.
• 6:39
  That
• 6:40
  was
• 6:40
  like
• 6:40
  a
• 6:40
  big
• 6:40
  term
• 6:41
  that
• 6:41
  we
• 6:41
  used.
• 6:41
  Do
• 6:41
  it
• 6:42
  yourself.
• 6:42
  We
• 6:43
  were
• 6:43
  silk
• 6:43
  screening
• 6:44
  our
• 6:44
  album
• 6:44
  covers.
• 6:45
  We
• 6:45
  were
• 6:45
  making
• 6:45
  posters.
• 6:46
  We
• 6:46
  were
• 6:46
  writing
• 6:47
  our
• 6:47
  own
• 6:47
  grants.
• 6:48
  So
• 6:48
  everything
• 6:49
  we
• 6:49
  did
• 6:49
  was
• 6:49
  very
• 6:49
  DIY.
• 6:50
  This
• 6:50
  is
• 6:50
  sort
• 6:50
  of
• 6:50
  a
• 6:51
  hipster
• 6:51
  term
• 6:51
  that
• 6:51
  we
• 6:52
  used.
• 6:52
  And
• 6:53
  I
• 6:53
  was
• 6:53
  a
• 6:53
  new
• 6:53
  single
• 6:54
  mom,
• 6:54
  and
• 6:54
  I've
• 6:55
  always
• 6:56
  had
• 6:56
  a
• 6:56
  knack
• 6:57
  for
• 6:57
  design
• 6:58
  and
• 6:58
  decorating.
• 6:59
  I've
• 6:59
  followed
• 7:00
  in
• 7:00
  my
• 7:00
  parents
• 7:00
  footsteps
• 7:01
  in
• 7:01
  terms
• 7:01
  of
• 7:02
  that's
• 7:02
  what
• 7:02
  they
• 7:03
  did
• 7:03
  when
• 7:03
  we
• 7:03
  were
• 7:03
  growing
• 7:03
  up.
• 7:04
  They
• 7:04
  were
• 7:04
  always
• 7:04
  fixing
• 7:04
  up
• 7:04
  the
• 7:04
  houses
• 7:05
  we
• 7:05
  were
• 7:05
  in
• 7:05
  and
• 7:05
  then
• 7:06
  selling
• 7:06
  them
• 7:06
  and
• 7:06
  we
• 7:06
  were
• 7:07
  moving
• 7:07
  and
• 7:07
  that's
• 7:07
  kind
• 7:07
  of
• 7:07
  how
• 7:08
  my
• 7:08
  parents
• 7:08
  built
• 7:08
  their
• 7:08
  own
• 7:09
  equity
• 7:10
  and
• 7:10
  built
• 7:10
  their
• 7:11
  way
• 7:11
  up
• 7:11
  in
• 7:11
  life
• 7:11
  as
• 7:11
  well.
• 7:12
  So
• 7:14
  I
• 7:14
  thought
• 7:14
  about
• 7:14
  putting
• 7:14
  all
• 7:15
  those
• 7:15
  things
• 7:15
  together
• 7:15
  and
• 7:16
  what
• 7:16
  would
• 7:16
  that
• 7:16
  look
• 7:16
  like?
• 7:17
  And
• 7:17
  that's
• 7:17
  when
• 7:17
  I
• 7:17
  came
• 7:17
  up
• 7:18
  with
• 7:18
  the
• 7:18
  idea
• 7:18
  of
• 7:18
  DIY
• 7:19
  mom.
• 7:20
  And
• 7:21
  I
• 7:21
  drew
• 7:22
  myself
• 7:22
  a
• 7:22
  logo
• 7:23
  and
• 7:23
  I
• 7:23
  built
• 7:23
  myself
• 7:23
  a
• 7:23
  website.
• 7:24
  And
• 7:24
  then
• 7:24
  I
• 7:24
  took
• 7:25
  the
• 7:25
  idea
• 7:25
  of
• 7:26
  DIY
• 7:26
  mom
• 7:26
  to
• 7:27
  the
• 7:27
  women
• 7:27
  in
• 7:27
  film
• 7:28
  and
• 7:28
  television
• 7:29
  pitch
• 7:30
  festival.
• 7:31
  And
• 7:31
  so
• 7:31
  I
• 7:31
  had
• 7:31
  this
• 7:32
  idea
• 7:32
  of
• 7:32
  a
• 7:33
  TV
• 7:33
  show
• 7:33
  that
• 7:33
  would
• 7:34
  be
• 7:34
  an
• 7:34
  HDTV
• 7:35
  show
• 7:35
  mixed
• 7:35
  with
• 7:35
  YouTube.
• 7:36
  So
• 7:37
  I
• 7:37
  would
• 7:37
  have
• 7:37
  the
• 7:38
  great
• 7:38
  before
• 7:38
  and
• 7:38
  afters,
• 7:39
  but
• 7:39
  instead
• 7:39
  of
• 7:40
  the
• 7:40
  drama
• 7:40
  inserted
• 7:41
  into
• 7:41
  those
• 7:41
  HGTV
• 7:42
  shows,
• 7:42
  I
• 7:42
  would
• 7:43
  put
• 7:43
  the
• 7:44
  tutorials
• 7:44
  in
• 7:45
  there
• 7:45
  and
• 7:45
  I
• 7:45
  would
• 7:45
  show
• 7:45
  people
• 7:46
  how
• 7:46
  to
• 7:46
  do
• 7:46
  things.
• 7:47
  And
• 7:47
  so,
• 7:47
  and
• 7:47
  I
• 7:47
  would
• 7:48
  talk
• 7:48
  directly
• 7:48
  to
• 7:48
  the
• 7:49
  camera.
• 7:49
  And
• 7:49
  so
• 7:49
  I
• 7:49
  kind
• 7:50
  of
• 7:50
  came
• 7:50
  up
• 7:50
  with
• 7:50
  this
• 7:50
  concept
• 7:51
  that
• 7:51
  would
• 7:51
  be
• 7:51
  an
• 7:51
  amalgamation
• 7:52
  of,
• 7:53
  of
• 7:54
  that
• 7:54
  HGTV
• 7:55
  style
• 7:55
  of
• 7:55
  show
• 7:56
  mixed
• 7:56
  with
• 7:56
  YouTube.
• 7:57
  So
• 7:57
  I
• 7:57
  went
• 7:58
  to
• 7:58
  the
• 7:58
  pitch
• 7:58
  and
• 7:58
  I
• 7:58
  had
• 7:59
  my
• 7:59
  little
• 7:59
  toddler
• 7:59
  on
• 8:00
  my
• 8:00
  hip
• 8:00
  and
• 8:01
  I
• 8:01
  pitched
• 8:01
  this
• 8:01
  show
• 8:01
  about
• 8:02
  DIY
• 8:02
  mom.
• 8:03
  And.
• 8:04
  I
• 8:04
  didn't
• 8:05
  win
• 8:05
  the
• 8:05
  contest,
• 8:08
  but
• 8:08
  years
• 8:09
  later,
• 8:09
  the
• 8:10
  woman
• 8:10
  who
• 8:10
  trains,
• 8:11
  you
• 8:11
  know,
• 8:11
  people
• 8:12
  for
• 8:12
  these,
• 8:12
  to
• 8:13
  go
• 8:13
  into
• 8:13
  these
• 8:13
  pitches
• 8:14
  and
• 8:14
  she's
• 8:14
  been
• 8:15
  and
• 8:15
  sat
• 8:15
  through
• 8:16
  thousands
• 8:16
  of
• 8:16
  pitches
• 8:17
  in
• 8:17
  her
• 8:17
  life.
• 8:18
  She
• 8:18
  said
• 8:18
  to
• 8:18
  me
• 8:18
  years
• 8:19
  later
• 8:19
  when
• 8:19
  she
• 8:19
  encountered
• 8:19
  me,
• 8:20
  I've
• 8:20
  seen
• 8:20
  thousands
• 8:21
  of
• 8:21
  pitches
• 8:22
  and
• 8:22
  I
• 8:22
  still
• 8:23
  remember
• 8:23
  yours.
• 8:23
  Wow.
• 8:24
  And
• 8:24
  so
• 8:25
  that
• 8:25
  was,
• 8:25
  that
• 8:25
  was
• 8:26
  really
• 8:26
  sweet
• 8:26
  little
• 8:27
  nugget
• 8:27
  of
• 8:27
  encouragement
• 8:28
  there.
• 8:29
  But
• 8:29
  of
• 8:29
  course,
• 8:29
  when
• 8:30
  I
• 8:30
  took
• 8:30
  out
• 8:30
  my
• 8:31
  plan
• 8:31
  for
• 8:31
  DIY
• 8:32
  mom
• 8:32
  to
• 8:32
  other,
• 8:33
  television,
• 8:34
  production
• 8:35
  companies,
• 8:36
  they
• 8:37
  kind
• 8:37
  of
• 8:37
  responded
• 8:37
  with,
• 8:38
  well,
• 8:38
  I
• 8:38
  don't
• 8:38
  know.
• 8:38
  It's
• 8:39
  not
• 8:39
  really
• 8:39
  that
• 8:39
  interesting
• 8:40
  of
• 8:40
  an
• 8:40
  idea.
• 8:41
  It's
• 8:41
  not
• 8:41
  really
• 8:41
  that
• 8:41
  fresh.
• 8:42
  There's
• 8:42
  lots
• 8:42
  of
• 8:42
  DIY
• 8:43
  moms
• 8:43
  out
• 8:43
  there.
• 8:43
  What
• 8:43
  makes
• 8:44
  you
• 8:44
  special?
• 8:44
  And
• 8:45
  I
• 8:45
  was
• 8:45
  kind
• 8:45
  of
• 8:45
  like,
• 8:46
  well,
• 8:46
  I
• 8:46
  thought
• 8:46
  that
• 8:47
  was
• 8:47
  the
• 8:47
  point.
• 8:47
  If
• 8:47
  there's
• 8:48
  lots
• 8:48
  of
• 8:48
  DIY
• 8:48
  moms
• 8:49
  out
• 8:49
  there,
• 8:49
  doesn't
• 8:50
  that
• 8:51
  mean
• 8:51
  that.
• 8:51
  There
• 8:52
  would
• 8:52
  be
• 8:52
  lots
• 8:52
  of
• 8:52
  people
• 8:52
  interested
• 8:53
  in
• 8:53
  watching
• 8:53
  this.
• 8:54
  So
• 8:54
  I
• 8:54
  kept
• 8:55
  getting
• 8:55
  no's
• 8:55
  when
• 8:55
  I
• 8:56
  would
• 8:56
  go
• 8:56
  to
• 8:56
  other
• 8:56
  people
• 8:57
  to
• 8:57
  ask
• 8:57
  them
• 8:57
  about
• 8:57
  making
• 8:58
  my
• 8:58
  show.
• 8:58
  And
• 8:59
  so
• 8:59
  thought,
• 8:59
  well,
• 8:59
  how
• 8:59
  can
• 9:00
  I
• 9:00
  make
• 9:00
  this
• 9:00
  show
• 9:01
  on
• 9:01
  my
• 9:01
  own?
• 9:02
  In
• 9:03
  Canada,
• 9:03
  we
• 9:04
  have
• 9:04
  this
• 9:05
  Canadian
• 9:05
  content,
• 9:08
  stream,
• 9:08
  where
• 9:09
  every
• 9:09
  network
• 9:10
  has
• 9:10
  to
• 9:10
  put
• 9:10
  so
• 9:10
  much
• 9:11
  money
• 9:11
  back
• 9:11
  into
• 9:11
  creating
• 9:12
  Canadian
• 9:12
  content.
• 9:13
  And
• 9:13
  through
• 9:13
  Bell
• 9:14
  5
• 9:14
  TV
• 9:15
  1,
• 9:15
  they,
• 9:16
  you
• 9:17
  can
• 9:17
  pitch
• 9:17
  a
• 9:17
  show
• 9:18
  and
• 9:18
  it's
• 9:18
  basically
• 9:18
  access
• 9:19
  TV.
• 9:19
  So
• 9:20
  it's
• 9:20
  very
• 9:20
  low
• 9:20
  budget,
• 9:21
  and
• 9:22
  it's,
• 9:22
  it's
• 9:23
  meant
• 9:23
  to
• 9:23
  develop
• 9:24
  talent
• 9:24
  within
• 9:25
  Canada.
• 9:26
  So
• 9:26
  Bell
• 9:27
  came
• 9:27
  to
• 9:27
  me,
• 9:27
  asked
• 9:28
  me
• 9:28
  about
• 9:28
  doing
• 9:28
  DIY
• 9:29
  mom
• 9:29
  as
• 9:29
  my
• 9:29
  own
• 9:29
  show,
• 9:30
  and
• 9:31
  I
• 9:31
  took
• 9:31
  them
• 9:31
  up
• 9:32
  on
• 9:32
  that
• 9:32
  opportunity.
• 9:33
  And
• 9:33
  at
• 9:33
  the
• 9:33
  same
• 9:34
  time
• 9:34
  I
• 9:34
  was
• 9:35
  looking
• 9:35
  for
• 9:35
  a
• 9:35
  real
• 9:36
  estate
• 9:36
  investment
• 9:36
  in
• 9:36
  Halifax
• 9:37
  and
• 9:37
  I
• 9:37
  found
• 9:38
  a
• 9:38
  house
• 9:38
  that
• 9:38
  had
• 9:38
  been
• 9:38
  sitting
• 9:39
  on
• 9:39
  the
• 9:39
  market
• 9:39
  for.
• 9:40
  over
• 9:40
  a
• 9:40
  year.
• 9:41
  I
• 9:41
  put
• 9:41
  an
• 9:41
  offer
• 9:42
  in
• 9:42
  for
• 9:42
  100,
• 9:42
  000
• 9:43
  under
• 9:43
  asking
• 9:44
  and
• 9:45
  I
• 9:45
  got
• 9:45
  the
• 9:45
  property
• 9:46
  and
• 9:46
  it
• 9:46
  needed
• 9:47
  a
• 9:47
  major
• 9:47
  renovation.
• 9:48
  So
• 9:49
  I
• 9:49
  used
• 9:49
  that
• 9:50
  house
• 9:50
  and,
• 9:51
  the
• 9:51
  financing
• 9:51
  I
• 9:51
  was
• 9:52
  able
• 9:52
  to
• 9:52
  get,
• 9:53
  and
• 9:53
  the
• 9:53
  renovation
• 9:54
  financing
• 9:54
  that
• 9:55
  I
• 9:55
  was
• 9:55
  able
• 9:55
  to
• 9:55
  get.
• 9:56
  And
• 9:56
  the
• 9:56
  budget
• 9:57
  from
• 9:57
  Bell
• 9:57
  and
• 9:58
  I
• 9:58
  put
• 9:58
  all
• 9:58
  of
• 9:58
  that
• 9:59
  money
• 9:59
  back
• 9:59
  into
• 9:59
  making
• 10:00
  that
• 10:01
  the
• 10:01
  house
• 10:01
  and
• 10:01
  the
• 10:01
  TV
• 10:02
  show
• 10:03
  and
• 10:03
  through
• 10:03
  the
• 10:03
  TV
• 10:03
  show,
• 10:04
  that's
• 10:04
  when
• 10:04
  I
• 10:04
  started
• 10:04
  to
• 10:05
  work
• 10:05
  with
• 10:05
  brands
• 10:05
  and
• 10:06
  bring
• 10:06
  brands
• 10:06
  on
• 10:07
  board
• 10:07
  So
• 10:07
  I
• 10:07
  was
• 10:07
  not
• 10:07
  only
• 10:08
  getting
• 10:08
  products
• 10:08
  for
• 10:09
  free
• 10:09
  But
• 10:09
  I
• 10:09
  was
• 10:10
  getting
• 10:10
  materials
• 10:11
  and
• 10:11
  I
• 10:11
  was
• 10:11
  getting
• 10:12
  some
• 10:12
  financial
• 10:12
  support
• 10:13
  And
• 10:14
  so
• 10:14
  all
• 10:14
  three
• 10:14
  of
• 10:14
  these
• 10:15
  sort
• 10:15
  of
• 10:15
  aspects
• 10:15
  put
• 10:16
  together.
• 10:16
  I
• 10:16
  was
• 10:16
  able
• 10:17
  to
• 10:17
  renovate
• 10:18
  my
• 10:18
  first
• 10:19
  Home
• 10:20
  that
• 10:20
  I
• 10:20
  ended
• 10:20
  up
• 10:20
  selling
• 10:21
  three
• 10:21
  years
• 10:21
  later.
• 10:22
  and
• 10:22
  that's
• 10:22
  when
• 10:23
  I
• 10:23
  made
• 10:23
  the
• 10:23
  money
• 10:24
  for
• 10:24
  the
• 10:24
  first
• 10:24
  time
• 10:24
  off
• 10:25
  of
• 10:25
  the
• 10:25
  house.
• 10:26
  But,
• 10:26
  basically,
• 10:27
  that
• 10:27
  was
• 10:27
  the
• 10:27
  story
• 10:28
  of
• 10:28
  how
• 10:28
  DIY
• 10:28
  Mom
• 10:29
  started.
• 10:29
  And
• 10:30
  then
• 10:30
  I
• 10:30
  was
• 10:30
  able
• 10:30
  to
• 10:31
  do
• 10:31
  five
• 10:31
  seasons
• 10:32
  of
• 10:32
  DIY
• 10:32
  Mom
• 10:33
  through
• 10:33
  Bell
• 10:33
  TV,
• 10:34
  which
• 10:35
  brought
• 10:35
  me
• 10:35
  to
• 10:35
  the
• 10:36
  pink
• 10:36
  dream
• 10:36
  home
• 10:36
  that
• 10:37
  I'm
• 10:37
  living
• 10:37
  in
• 10:37
  today.
• 10:38
  Very
• 10:39
  cute
• 10:39
  house.
• 10:40
  You
• 10:40
  have
• 10:40

• 10:40
  go
• 10:41
  to

  Instagram
• 10:41
  to
• 10:41
  take
• 10:41
  a
• 10:42
  look
• 10:42
  because
• 10:42
  I
• 10:43
  just,
• 10:43
  I
• 10:43
  fell
• 10:43
  in
• 10:43
  love
• 10:43
  with
• 10:43
  it
• 10:43
  as
• 10:44
  soon
• 10:44
  as
• 10:44
  I
• 10:44
  saw
• 10:44
  it.
• 10:44
  Yeah,
• 10:47
  so
• 10:47
  that's
• 10:47
  kind
• 10:48
  of
• 10:48
  the
• 10:48
  story
• 10:48
  of

  how

  I've
• 11:00
  just
• 11:01
  learned
• 11:01
  over
• 11:01
  the
• 11:01
  years
• 11:02
  through
• 11:02
  determination
• 11:03
  and
• 11:03
  curiosity
• 11:05
  and
• 11:05
  drive
• 11:07
  just
• 11:07
  to
• 11:07
  make
• 11:07
  it
• 11:07
  happen
• 11:08
  and
• 11:08
  to
• 11:08
  keep
• 11:08
  going.
• 11:09
  And
• 11:09
  as
• 11:09
  doors
• 11:10
  opened,
• 11:10
  I
• 11:10
  walked
• 11:10
  through
• 11:11
  them
• 11:11
  and
• 11:11
  these
• 11:11
  opportunities,
• 11:12
  led
• 11:13
  me
• 11:13
  to
• 11:13
  where
• 11:13
  I
• 11:13
  am
• 11:13
  today.
• 11:15
  Well,
• 11:15
  I
• 11:16
  like
• 11:16
  that
• 11:16
  story.
• 11:16
  I
• 11:16
  think
• 11:16
  it's
• 11:17
  really
• 11:17
  interesting
• 11:17
  because
• 11:17
  it
• 11:18
  seems
• 11:18
  now
• 11:18
  you
• 11:19
  tell
• 11:19
  me
• 11:19
  if
• 11:19
  I'm
• 11:19
  wrong
• 11:20
  you
• 11:20
  talk
• 11:20
  about
• 11:20
  curiosity
• 11:21
  and
• 11:21
  I
• 11:21
  just
• 11:21
  be
• 11:21
  interested
• 11:22
  to
• 11:22
  learn
• 11:23
  like
• 11:23
  what
• 11:23
  you're
• 11:23
  thinking
• 11:25
  throughout
• 11:25
  these
• 11:26
  different
• 11:26
  transitions,
• 11:28
  because
• 11:28
  it
• 11:28
  seems
• 11:28
  very
• 11:29
  organic.
• 11:30
  And
• 11:30
  it
• 11:30
  seems
• 11:31
  very
• 11:31
  seamless,
• 11:33
  but,
• 11:35
  did
• 11:35
  you
• 11:36
  have
• 11:36
  to
• 11:36
  do
• 11:36
  a
• 11:36
  lot
• 11:37
  of
• 11:37
  work,
• 11:39
  mentally,
• 11:39
  emotionally,
• 11:41
  when
• 11:41
  you
• 11:42
  found
• 11:42
  yourself
• 11:42
  in
• 11:42
  a
• 11:43
  place
• 11:43
  like
• 11:43
  you're
• 11:44
  moving
• 11:44
  back
• 11:44
  to
• 11:44
  Halifax,
• 11:45
  you're
• 11:45
  a
• 11:45
  single
• 11:45
  mom,
• 11:46
  you're,
• 11:46
  you.
• 11:47
  You
• 11:47
  know
• 11:47
  that,
• 11:48
  the
• 11:48
  music
• 11:48
  is
• 11:48
  in
• 11:49
  the
• 11:49
  answer.
• 11:49
  what
• 11:49
  are
• 11:49
  you
• 11:50
  thinking
• 11:50
  to
• 11:51
  keep
• 11:51
  yourself
• 11:51
  moving
• 11:52
  and
• 11:52
  to
• 11:52
  make
• 11:52
  those
• 11:53
  transitions?
• 11:54
  Well,
• 11:55
  I
• 11:55
  think
• 11:55
  because
• 11:56
  I
• 11:56
  had
• 11:56
  parents
• 11:56
  that
• 11:56
  were
• 11:57
  great
• 11:57
  examples
• 11:57
  of
• 11:57
  entrepreneurship
• 11:58
  and
• 11:59
  risk
• 11:59
  taking,
• 11:59
  I've
• 12:00
  always
• 12:00
  had
• 12:00
  a
• 12:00
  good
• 12:00
  appetite
• 12:01
  for
• 12:01
  risk.
• 12:02
  So
• 12:02
  I
• 12:02
  think
• 12:02
  there
• 12:02
  is
• 12:03
  this,
• 12:04
  there,
• 12:05
  a
• 12:05
  little
• 12:05
  bit
• 12:05
  of
• 12:05
  the
• 12:05
  element
• 12:06
  of
• 12:06
  my
• 12:06
  personality,
• 12:07
  that
• 12:07
  goal
• 12:08
  driven
• 12:09
  personality,
• 12:10
  and
• 12:10
  also
• 12:11
  the
• 12:11
  willingness
• 12:11
  to
• 12:11
  take
• 12:12
  some
• 12:12
  big
• 12:12
  risks
• 12:13
  in
• 12:13
  life
• 12:14
  and
• 12:14
  put
• 12:14
  myself
• 12:15
  out
• 12:15
  there
• 12:16
  was
• 12:16
  kind
• 12:16
  of
• 12:16
  like
• 12:17
  the
• 12:17
  trifecta
• 12:18
  of
• 12:18
  what
• 12:19
  made
• 12:20
  for,
• 12:21
  for
• 12:21
  all
• 12:21
  of
• 12:21
  this
• 12:21
  to
• 12:22
  come
• 12:22
  together
• 12:22
  and
• 12:23
  part
• 12:23
  of
• 12:23
  the
• 12:23
  charm
• 12:24
  and
• 12:24
  what
• 12:24
  I
• 12:25
  And
• 12:25
  one
• 12:25
  of
• 12:25
  the
• 12:25
  things
• 12:25
  that
• 12:26
  I
• 12:26
  tell
• 12:26
  people
• 12:26
  about
• 12:26
  DIY
• 12:26
  Mom
• 12:27
  is
• 12:27
  that
• 12:27
  I'm
• 12:27
  not
• 12:28
  afraid
• 12:28
  to
• 12:28
  fail
• 12:29
  on
• 12:29
  camera
• 12:30
  and
• 12:30
  for
• 12:30
  other
• 12:31
  people
• 12:31
  to
• 12:31
  watch
• 12:31
  my
• 12:31
  mistakes.
• 12:32
  And
• 12:33
  because
• 12:33
  I
• 12:33
  was
• 12:33
  learning
• 12:34
  as
• 12:34
  I
• 12:34
  was
• 12:34
  going
• 12:35
  and
• 12:35
  filming
• 12:35
  it
• 12:35
  all,
• 12:36
  the
• 12:36
  whole
• 12:36
  process
• 12:37
  was
• 12:37
  really
• 12:37
  DIY
• 12:38
  because
• 12:38
  I
• 12:38
  was
• 12:38
  learning
• 12:39
  how
• 12:39
  to
• 12:39
  film.
• 12:40
  I
• 12:40
  was
• 12:40
  learning
• 12:40
  how
• 12:40
  to
• 12:40
  edit.
• 12:41
  I
• 12:41
  was
• 12:41
  learning
• 12:41
  how
• 12:41
  to
• 12:42
  do
• 12:42
  projects
• 12:43
  and
• 12:43
  renovate
• 12:45
  things
• 12:45
  on
• 12:45
  my
• 12:45
  own.
• 12:45
  I
• 12:45
  was
• 12:45
  watching
• 12:46
  the
• 12:46
  carpenters.
• 12:47
  I
• 12:47
  was
• 12:47
  picking
• 12:47
  up
• 12:47
  terms.
• 12:49
  You
• 12:49
  know,
• 12:49
  I
• 12:49
  remember
• 12:49
  walking
• 12:50
  into
• 12:50
  the
• 12:50
  construction
• 12:51
  site
• 12:51
  one
• 12:51
  day
• 12:52
  and
• 12:52
  hearing
• 12:52
  And
• 12:53
  all
• 12:53
  the
• 12:53
  guys
• 12:54
  complaining
• 12:54
  about,
• 12:54
  she's
• 12:55
  causing
• 12:55
  us
• 12:55
  all
• 12:55
  these
• 12:55
  problems,
• 12:56
  she's
• 12:56
  really
• 12:57
  hard
• 12:57
  to
• 12:57
  work
• 12:57
  with.
• 12:58
  I
• 12:58
  was
• 12:58
  thinking
• 12:58
  they
• 12:58
  were
• 12:58
  talking
• 12:59
  about
• 12:59
  me.
• 13:00
  Well,
• 13:00
  no.
• 13:00
  They
• 13:01
  all
• 13:01
  refer
• 13:01
  to
• 13:01
  things
• 13:02
  on
• 13:02
  the
• 13:03
  job
• 13:03
  site
• 13:03
  as
• 13:03
  she,
• 13:04
  so
• 13:04
  if
• 13:04
  they're
• 13:04
  trying
• 13:05
  to
• 13:05
  get
• 13:05
  a
• 13:05
  beam
• 13:05
  into
• 13:05
  the
• 13:05
  ceiling,
• 13:06
  it's
• 13:06
  she.
• 13:08
  And
• 13:09
  just
• 13:09
  like
• 13:09
  in
• 13:09
  general,
• 13:10
  working
• 13:10
  with
• 13:11
  plumbers
• 13:11
  and
• 13:11
  electricians,
• 13:12
  it's
• 13:12
  just
• 13:12
  years
• 13:13
  of
• 13:14
  hearing
• 13:14
  terminologies
• 13:15
  and
• 13:15
  gathering
• 13:16
  this
• 13:16
  knowledge.
• 13:17
  And
• 13:17
  it's
• 13:17
  really
• 13:17
  life
• 13:18
  changing.
• 13:19
  life
• 13:19
  experience,
• 13:20
  you
• 13:20
  know,
• 13:20
  there's
• 13:20
  this,
• 13:21
  there's
• 13:22
  this
• 13:23
  intelligence
• 13:23
  that
• 13:23
  we
• 13:23
  have
• 13:24
  when
• 13:24
  we're
• 13:24
  younger,
• 13:25
  where
• 13:25
  we're
• 13:25
  really
• 13:25
  able
• 13:26
  to,
• 13:26
  remember
• 13:27
  names,
• 13:27
  remember
• 13:27
  things,
• 13:28
  regurgitate
• 13:28
  information.
• 13:29
  And,
• 13:30
  and
• 13:30
  that's
• 13:30
  a
• 13:30
  different
• 13:31
  type
• 13:31
  of
• 13:31
  intelligence
• 13:32
  than
• 13:32
  what
• 13:32
  we
• 13:32
  have
• 13:33
  later
• 13:33
  in
• 13:33
  life,
• 13:34
  which
• 13:34
  is
• 13:34
  more
• 13:34
  of
• 13:35
  a
• 13:35
  life
• 13:36
  experience
• 13:36
  knowledge,
• 13:37
  right?
• 13:38
  And
• 13:38
  being
• 13:38
  able
• 13:38
  to
• 13:40
  advise
• 13:40
  and
• 13:40
  mentor
• 13:41
  and
• 13:41
  direct
• 13:42
  people
• 13:42
  in
• 13:42
  a
• 13:42
  different
• 13:43
  way.
• 13:45
  Even
• 13:45
  like,
• 13:46
  when
• 13:46
  I
• 13:46
  was
• 13:46
  in
• 13:46
  theater
• 13:47
  school
• 13:49
  and
• 13:49
  wanted
• 13:49
  to
• 13:50
  be
• 13:50
  an
• 13:50
  actress,
• 13:51
  even
• 13:52
  then,
• 13:53
  it
• 13:53
  was
• 13:54
  really
• 13:55
  the
• 13:55
  only
• 13:56
  road
• 13:56
  for
• 13:56
  me
• 13:56
  to
• 13:56
  go
• 13:56
  down
• 13:57
  to
• 13:57
  do
• 13:57
  something
• 13:58
  like
• 13:58
  that
• 13:58
  would
• 13:58
  be
• 13:59
  to
• 13:59
  write.
• 14:00
  and
• 14:00
  direct
• 14:01
  and
• 14:01
  produce
• 14:01
  something
• 14:02
  on
• 14:02
  my
• 14:02
  own
• 14:02
  because
• 14:04
  in
• 14:04
  general
• 14:04
  I
• 14:04
  wasn't
• 14:05
  that
• 14:05
  castable.
• 14:06
  Like
• 14:06
  my
• 14:06
  theater
• 14:07
  teachers
• 14:07
  would
• 14:08
  say
• 14:08
  to
• 14:08
  me,
• 14:08
  Oh,
• 14:08
  you're,
• 14:09
  you're
• 14:09
  not
• 14:09
  skinny
• 14:09
  enough
• 14:10
  to
• 14:10
  be
• 14:10
  a
• 14:10
  leading
• 14:10
  lady
• 14:11
  and
• 14:11
  you're
• 14:12
  not
• 14:13
  unattractive
• 14:13
  or,
• 14:14
  you
• 14:14
  know,
• 14:14
  heavy
• 14:14
  enough
• 14:15
  to
• 14:15
  be
• 14:16
  like
• 14:16
  a
• 14:16
  character
• 14:16
  actor.
• 14:17
  So
• 14:17
  you
• 14:17
  don't
• 14:18
  really
• 14:18
  fit
• 14:18
  in
• 14:18
  anywhere.
• 14:19
  And
• 14:20
  it
• 14:20
  was
• 14:21
  heartbreaking
• 14:21
  to
• 14:21
  me
• 14:22
  leaving
• 14:22
  theater
• 14:23
  school.
• 14:23
  I
• 14:23
  felt
• 14:23
  very
• 14:24
  discouraged.
• 14:24
  And
• 14:25
  I
• 14:25
  think
• 14:25
  that's
• 14:25
  why
• 14:25
  I
• 14:25
  went
• 14:25
  into
• 14:26
  music
• 14:26
  and
• 14:26
  writing
• 14:27
  my
• 14:27
  own
• 14:27
  music
• 14:27
  and
• 14:28
  creating
• 14:28
  my
• 14:28
  own
• 14:28
  path,
• 14:29
  but
• 14:29
  everything
• 14:30
  in
• 14:30
  life
• 14:30
  that
• 14:30
  I
• 14:30
  have
• 14:31
  done,
• 14:32
  self
• 14:32
  directed
• 14:33
  and
• 14:34
  also
• 14:35
  just
• 14:35
  following
• 14:35
  my
• 14:35
  gut
• 14:36
  instinct
• 14:36
  and
• 14:37
  doing
• 14:37
  it
• 14:37
  for
• 14:37
  myself
• 14:38
  has
• 14:38
  typically.
• 14:40
  just
• 14:41
  moved
• 14:41
  me
• 14:41
  a
• 14:41
  little
• 14:41
  bit
• 14:41
  further
• 14:42
  along
• 14:42
  the
• 14:42
  line,
• 14:42
  and
• 14:43
  I've
• 14:43
  had
• 14:43
  better
• 14:43
  success
• 14:44
  than
• 14:45
  working
• 14:46
  for
• 14:46
  somebody
• 14:46
  else.
• 14:47
  I
• 14:47
  also
• 14:47
  think
• 14:47
  it
• 14:47
  was
• 14:48
  like
• 14:48
  that
• 14:48
  undiagnosed
• 14:49
  ADHD
• 14:49
  that
• 14:49
  I
• 14:50
  had
• 14:50
  for
• 14:50
  many
• 14:50
  years
• 14:51
  where
• 14:51
  I
• 14:51
  just
• 14:51
  was
• 14:52
  not
• 14:52
  a
• 14:52
  good
• 14:52
  employee.
• 14:53
  I
• 14:53
  wasn't
• 14:53
  good
• 14:53
  at
• 14:53
  working
• 14:54
  for
• 14:54
  somebody
• 14:54
  else.
• 14:55
  And
• 14:56
  so
• 14:56
  working
• 14:56
  for
• 14:56
  myself
• 14:57
  ended
• 14:57
  up
• 14:57
  being
• 14:59
  the
• 14:59
  best
• 14:59
  way
• 15:00
  for
• 15:00
  me
• 15:00
  to
• 15:00
  be
• 15:01
  the
• 15:01
  most
• 15:01
  motivated
• 15:02
  and
• 15:02
  to
• 15:02
  be
• 15:03
  the
• 15:03
  most
• 15:03
  passionate
• 15:03
  about
• 15:04
  what
• 15:04
  I
• 15:04
  was
• 15:04
  doing.
• 15:05
  Yeah.
• 15:05
  Cause
• 15:05
  I
• 15:05
  was
• 15:05
  going
• 15:05
  to
• 15:05
  ask
• 15:06
  you,
• 15:06
  did
• 15:06
  you
• 15:06
  ever
• 15:06
  consider,
• 15:07
  Or
• 15:07
  think,
• 15:08
  you
• 15:08
  know
• 15:08
  what,
• 15:08
  maybe
• 15:08
  I
• 15:08
  should
• 15:09
  just
• 15:09
  get
• 15:09
  that
• 15:10
  normal
• 15:10
  sort
• 15:11
  of
• 15:11
  Monday
• 15:11
  to
• 15:11
  Friday
• 15:12
  nine
• 15:12
  to
• 15:12
  five
• 15:13
  job
• 15:13
  because
• 15:15
  I
• 15:15
  mean,
• 15:15
  obviously
• 15:15
  that's
• 15:16
  the
• 15:16
  conventional
• 15:16
  route
• 15:17
  and
• 15:17
  that's,
• 15:17
  what
• 15:17
  we
• 15:18
  sort
• 15:18
  of
• 15:18
  deem
• 15:18
  like
• 15:19
  the
• 15:19
  safest
• 15:19
  and
• 15:21
  easiest,
• 15:22
  right?
• 15:22
  Well,
• 15:23
  you
• 15:23
  know,
• 15:23
  like
• 15:23
  there's
• 15:24
  oftentimes
• 15:24
  where
• 15:24
  I
• 15:24
  think
• 15:25
  you
• 15:25
  know
• 15:25
  what,
• 15:25
  I'd
• 15:25
  be
• 15:25
  great
• 15:26
  at
• 15:26
  a
• 15:26
  marketing
• 15:26
  agency.
• 15:27
  I
• 15:27
  should
• 15:27
  just
• 15:27
  go
• 15:27
  work
• 15:27
  at
• 15:28
  a
• 15:28
  marketing
• 15:28
  agency.
• 15:28
  That
• 15:29
  seems
• 15:29
  so
• 15:29
  much
• 15:29
  fun.
• 15:30
  But
• 15:30
  then
• 15:31
  people
• 15:31
  that
• 15:31
  are
• 15:31
  working
• 15:32
  in
• 15:32
  those
• 15:32
  industries
• 15:32
  are
• 15:33
  so
• 15:33
  burnt
• 15:33
  out.
• 15:34
  It
• 15:34
  isn't
• 15:34
  like
• 15:35
  it,
• 15:35
  you
• 15:36
  are
• 15:36
  working
• 15:36
  all
• 15:36
  hours
• 15:37
  a
• 15:37
  day
• 15:37
  and
• 15:37
  it's
• 15:37
  super
• 15:38
  cutthroat.
• 15:38
  And
• 15:39
  I
• 15:39
  just
• 15:39
  think
• 15:40
  as
• 15:40
  a
• 15:40
  mom
• 15:40
  and
• 15:41
  trying
• 15:41
  to
• 15:41
  create
• 15:41
  balance
• 15:42
  and
• 15:42
  to
• 15:42
  be
• 15:42
  independent
• 15:43
  and
• 15:43
  to
• 15:44
  still
• 15:44
  be
• 15:44
  involved
• 15:45
  in
• 15:45
  my
• 15:45
  daughter's
• 15:45
  life,
• 15:46
  the
• 15:46
  entrepreneur
• 15:47
  road
• 15:48
  really
• 15:49
  fit
• 15:49
  with
• 15:49
  my
• 15:49
  personality
• 15:50
  really
• 15:50
  well.
• 15:51
  You
• 15:51
  know,
• 15:51
  I
• 15:51
  feel
• 15:52
  I'm
• 15:52
  often
• 15:53
  going
• 15:53
  on
• 15:53
  the
• 15:53
  school
• 15:53
  class
• 15:54
  trips.
• 15:54
  I'm
• 15:54
  painting
• 15:55
  the
• 15:55
  sets
• 15:55
  for
• 15:55
  the
• 15:55
  musical.
• 15:55
  I'm
• 15:56
  coaching
• 15:56
  the
• 15:56
  basketball
• 15:57
  team.
• 15:57
  The
• 15:57
  only
• 15:58
  reason
• 15:58
  I
• 15:58
  could
• 15:58
  do
• 15:58
  all
• 15:59
  these
• 15:59
  things
• 15:59
  is
• 16:00
  because
• 16:00
  I'm
• 16:00
  employed
• 16:01
  and
• 16:01
  I
• 16:01
  make
• 16:01
  my
• 16:02
  own
• 16:02
  hours.
• 16:03
  No,
• 16:03
  but
• 16:03
  like
• 16:04
  when
• 16:04
  I
• 16:04
  did
• 16:04
  work
• 16:05
  at
• 16:05
  Ag
• 16:05
  Films,
• 16:05
  when
• 16:06
  I
• 16:06
  was
• 16:06
  an
• 16:06
  associate
• 16:07
  producer
• 16:07
  there,
• 16:07
  I
• 16:08
  did
• 16:08
  love
• 16:09
  that.
• 16:09
  I
• 16:09
  loved
• 16:10
  working
• 16:10
  in
• 16:10
  an
• 16:11
  office.
• 16:12
  I
• 16:12
  loved
• 16:12
  working
• 16:13
  in
• 16:13
  that
• 16:13
  fast
• 16:13
  paced
• 16:13
  commercial
• 16:14
  industry
• 16:14
  with
• 16:15
  the
• 16:15
  changing
• 16:15
  of
• 16:16
  like.
• 16:17
  you
• 16:17
  know,
• 16:17
  the
• 16:18
  chain,
• 16:18
  like
• 16:19
  with
• 16:19
  the
• 16:19
  fast
• 16:19
  changing
• 16:20
  of
• 16:20
  things,
• 16:20
  like
• 16:21
  it
• 16:21
  was
• 16:21
  one
• 16:21
  commercial
• 16:22
  and
• 16:22
  then
• 16:22
  that
• 16:22
  was
• 16:22
  over
• 16:22
  and
• 16:23
  then
• 16:23
  he
• 16:23
  moved
• 16:23
  to
• 16:23
  the
• 16:23
  next
• 16:23
  thing.
• 16:24
  It
• 16:24
  was
• 16:24
  so
• 16:25
  fun.
• 16:25
  but
• 16:26
  I,
• 16:27
  again,
• 16:27
  like
• 16:27
  I
• 16:27
  just,
• 16:28
  I,
• 16:29
  I
• 16:29
  couldn't
• 16:30
  keep
• 16:30
  a
• 16:30
  job
• 16:31
  working
• 16:31
  for
• 16:31
  somebody
• 16:32
  else
• 16:32
  in
• 16:32
  the
• 16:32
  same
• 16:33
  way
• 16:33
  that
• 16:33
  I
• 16:33
  could,
• 16:33
  I
• 16:34
  was
• 16:34
  able
• 16:34
  to
• 16:34
  be
• 16:34
  successful
• 16:35
  on
• 16:36
  my
• 16:36
  own
• 16:36
  and
• 16:37
  I
• 16:37
  could
• 16:38
  see
• 16:38
  if
• 16:38
  I
• 16:38
  had
• 16:38
  got
• 16:39
  been,
• 16:40
  I
• 16:40
  mean,
• 16:40
  I
• 16:40
  ended
• 16:40
  up.
• 16:41
  Folding
• 16:41
  and
• 16:41
  closing,
• 16:42
  but
• 16:42
  if
• 16:43
  I
• 16:43
  had
• 16:43
  been
• 16:43
  there
• 16:44
  long
• 16:44
  term,
• 16:45
  I
• 16:45
  definitely
• 16:47
  wouldn't
• 16:47
  have
• 16:47
  the
• 16:47
  relationship
• 16:48
  I
• 16:48
  have
• 16:48
  today
• 16:49
  with
• 16:49
  my
• 16:49
  daughter
• 16:49
  because
• 16:50
  it
• 16:50
  would
• 16:50
  have
• 16:50
  been
• 16:50
  a
• 16:51
  drop
• 16:51
  her
• 16:51
  off
• 16:52
  for
• 16:52
  daycare,
• 16:53
  get
• 16:53
  to
• 16:53
  work
• 16:54
  after
• 16:54
  school
• 16:55
  care,
• 16:56
  home
• 16:56
  for
• 16:56
  dinner,
• 16:57
  bedtime.
• 16:57
  And
• 16:58
  I
• 16:58
  just
• 16:58
  think
• 16:58
  about
• 16:58
  so
• 16:58
  many
• 16:59
  single
• 16:59
  moms
• 16:59
  that
• 16:59
  is
• 17:00
  the
• 17:00
  reality
• 17:00
  that
• 17:01
  they
• 17:01
  have
• 17:01
  even
• 17:02
  taking
• 17:03
  the
• 17:03
  bus
• 17:03
  to
• 17:03
  drop
• 17:03
  her
• 17:03
  kids
• 17:04
  off
• 17:05
  to
• 17:05
  daycare
• 17:06
  or,
• 17:06
  and
• 17:06
  then
• 17:06
  having
• 17:07
  to
• 17:07
  take
• 17:07
  the
• 17:07
  bus
• 17:07
  to
• 17:07
  school,
• 17:08
  to,
• 17:08
  to
• 17:08
  school
• 17:09
  or
• 17:09
  to
• 17:09
  work,
• 17:09
  it's
• 17:10
  just,
• 17:11
  you're
• 17:11
  so
• 17:11
  much
• 17:11
  of
• 17:12
  your
• 17:12
  day
• 17:12
  is
• 17:12
  in
• 17:12
  that
• 17:12
  commute
• 17:13
  and
• 17:13
  you
• 17:13
  really
• 17:14
  don't
• 17:14
  the
• 17:14
  time
• 17:16
  with
• 17:16
  your
• 17:16
  children
• 17:16
  and.
• 17:18
  I
• 17:18
  just,
• 17:19
  I
• 17:19
  feel
• 17:19
  for
• 17:19
  those
• 17:19
  women
• 17:20
  so
• 17:20
  much.
• 17:20
  Yeah,
• 17:20
  and
• 17:21
  that's
• 17:21
  actually,
• 17:21
  I
• 17:22
  released
• 17:22
  a
• 17:22
  podcast
• 17:23
  episode
• 17:23
  earlier
• 17:24
  this
• 17:24
  week
• 17:24
  with
• 17:24
  Kelly
• 17:24
  Sinclair,
• 17:25
  who
• 17:25
  is
• 17:26
  a
• 17:26
  branding
• 17:27
  and
• 17:27
  marketing
• 17:28
  expert
• 17:28
  and
• 17:28
  coach,
• 17:28
  and
• 17:30
  she
• 17:30
  has
• 17:30
  her
• 17:30
  own
• 17:30
  business.
• 17:31
  And
• 17:31
  she
• 17:32
  was,
• 17:32
  in
• 17:32
  communications
• 17:33
  as
• 17:34
  well,
• 17:34
  and
• 17:34
  mentioned
• 17:34
  the
• 17:35
  exact
• 17:35
  same
• 17:36
  thing
• 17:36
  before
• 17:36
  she
• 17:36
  went
• 17:37
  into
• 17:37
  business
• 17:38
  for
• 17:38
  herself,
• 17:38
  that
• 17:39
  she
• 17:39
  was
• 17:40
  commuting
• 17:40
  into
• 17:40
  Calgary,
• 17:41
  dropping
• 17:41
  her
• 17:42
  daughter
• 17:42
  off
• 17:43
  daycare
• 17:43
  at
• 17:43
  6
• 17:44
  a.
• 17:44
  m.
• 17:44
  and
• 17:44
  then,
• 17:45
  tucking
• 17:45
  her
• 17:45
  into
• 17:46
  bed
• 17:46
  at
• 17:46
  night
• 17:46
  and
• 17:46
  that
• 17:46
  was
• 17:47
  it.
• 17:47
  and
• 17:47
  that's,
• 17:47
  you
• 17:48
  know,
• 17:48
  sort
• 17:48
  of
• 17:48
  part
• 17:49
  why
• 17:49
  she,
• 17:50
  she
• 17:50
  made
• 17:50
  the
• 17:50
  shift
• 17:51
  as
• 17:51
  well.
• 17:51
  And
• 17:51
  I
• 17:51
  think,
• 17:52
  entrepreneurship
• 17:53
  does
• 17:54
  allow
• 17:55
  you
• 17:55
  that
• 17:55
  flexibility,
• 17:56
  as
• 17:56
  you've
• 17:56
  mentioned.
• 17:57
  For
• 17:58
  me,
• 17:58
  it
• 17:58
  was
• 17:59
  always
• 17:59
  something
• 17:59
  that
• 18:01
  I
• 18:01
  never
• 18:01
  really
• 18:02
  seriously
• 18:02
  considered
• 18:03
  it
• 18:03
  until
• 18:04
  I
• 18:04
  started
• 18:05
  coaching
• 18:06
  and
• 18:07
  I
• 18:07
  was
• 18:08
  telling
• 18:08
  myself,
• 18:10
  I
• 18:10
  don't
• 18:10
  have
• 18:11
  that
• 18:11
  bone
• 18:11
  in
• 18:11
  my
• 18:11
  body.
• 18:12
  Like,
• 18:12
  I
• 18:12
  just
• 18:13
  don't,
• 18:13
  like
• 18:14
  I
• 18:14
  was
• 18:14
  just
• 18:14
  born
• 18:14
  without
• 18:15
  whatever
• 18:15
  it
• 18:15
  is
• 18:16
  you
• 18:16
  need
• 18:16
  to
• 18:16
  be,
• 18:18
  to
• 18:18
  be
• 18:18
  an
• 18:18
  entrepreneur.
• 18:19
  And
• 18:19
  it
• 18:19
  wasn't
• 18:19
  until,
• 18:20
  I
• 18:20
  started
• 18:20
  working
• 18:21
  with
• 18:21
  a
• 18:21
  coach
• 18:22
  and
• 18:22
  she
• 18:22
  said,
• 18:22
  no,
• 18:23
  like
• 18:23
  it's,
• 18:24
  you
• 18:24
  have
• 18:24
  to
• 18:24
  learn
• 18:24
  it.
• 18:25
  You
• 18:25
  have
• 18:25
  to
• 18:25
  learn
• 18:26
  it.
• 18:26
  And
• 18:27
  I
• 18:27
  think
• 18:27
  we
• 18:28
  get
• 18:28
  to
• 18:28
  a
• 18:29
  place
• 18:29
  in
• 18:29
  our
• 18:29
  lives
• 18:29
  where
• 18:31
  we
• 18:31
  have
• 18:31
  that
• 18:31
  push,
• 18:32
  we
• 18:32
  have
• 18:32
  that
• 18:32
  nudge
• 18:33
  to
• 18:33
  make
• 18:33
  that
• 18:33
  change.
• 18:34
  We
• 18:34
  know,
• 18:35
  like
• 18:35
  I
• 18:35
  always
• 18:36
  say,
• 18:36
  if
• 18:36
  you
• 18:36
  feel
• 18:36
  like
• 18:36
  you're
• 18:36
  meant
• 18:37
  for
• 18:37
  more,
• 18:38
  it's
• 18:38
  because
• 18:38
  you
• 18:38
  are,
• 18:39
  right?
• 18:39
  We
• 18:39
  have
• 18:39
  that
• 18:40
  instinct
• 18:40
  within
• 18:40
  us
• 18:40
  as
• 18:41
  human
• 18:41
  beings
• 18:41
  to
• 18:41
  grow
• 18:42
  and
• 18:42
  to
• 18:42
  learn,
• 18:42
  to
• 18:43
  evolve.
• 18:44
  but
• 18:44
  it
• 18:45
  was
• 18:45
  a
• 18:45
  very
• 18:45
  steep
• 18:45
  learning
• 18:46
  curve.
• 18:46
  I
• 18:46
  had
• 18:47
  nobody
• 18:47
  in
• 18:47
  my
• 18:48
  family,
• 18:48
  nobody
• 18:48
  around
• 18:49
  me
• 18:49
  that
• 18:49
  had
• 18:50
  any
• 18:50
  background.
• 18:51
  Anything,
• 18:52
  any
• 18:52
  experience
• 18:53
  as
• 18:53
  an
• 18:54
  entrepreneur,
• 18:54
  it
• 18:54
  was
• 18:54
  just
• 18:55
  completely
• 18:55
  foreign
• 18:56
  to
• 18:56
  me.
• 18:57
  really
• 18:57
  it's
• 18:57
  modeled
• 18:58
  to
• 18:58
  you,
• 18:58
  Through
• 18:58
  your
• 18:59
  parents
• 18:59
  or
• 19:00
  if
• 19:00
  you
• 19:00
  have
• 19:00
  a
• 19:00
  mentor
• 19:00
  or
• 19:00
  something,
• 19:01
  but
• 19:01
  I
• 19:01
  think
• 19:01
  just
• 19:01
  because
• 19:02
  my
• 19:02
  parents
• 19:03
  were
• 19:03
  that
• 19:03
  way.
• 19:03
  They
• 19:05
  were
• 19:05
  big
• 19:05
  risk
• 19:05
  takers
• 19:06
  and
• 19:06
  they
• 19:06
  instilled
• 19:07
  that
• 19:08
  idea
• 19:08
  in
• 19:08
  us
• 19:09
  as
• 19:09
  well
• 19:10
  It
• 19:10
  was
• 19:10
  more
• 19:10
  second
• 19:11
  nature
• 19:11
  to
• 19:11
  me
• 19:11
  and
• 19:11
  I
• 19:12
  think
• 19:12
  just
• 19:12
  my
• 19:12
  personality
• 19:13
  and
• 19:13
  my
• 19:13
  disposition
• 19:14
  like
• 19:14
  my
• 19:14
  dad
• 19:14
  said
• 19:14
  that
• 19:15
  he
• 19:15
  watched
• 19:16
  me
• 19:16
  At
• 19:17
  the
• 19:17
  church
• 19:18
  nursery
• 19:18
  when
• 19:18
  I
• 19:18
  was
• 19:19
  a
• 19:19
  baby
• 19:20
  Crawl
• 19:20
  over
• 19:20
  every
• 19:21
  other
• 19:21
  baby
• 19:21
  in
• 19:21
  the
• 19:21
  room
• 19:22
  to
• 19:22
  get
• 19:22
  to
• 19:22
  a
• 19:22
  cheerio
• 19:23
  that
• 19:23
  was
• 19:23
  in
• 19:23
  the
• 19:23
  corner
• 19:24
  Yeah,
• 19:25
  and
• 19:25
  just
• 19:26
  said
• 19:26
  oh
• 19:26
  I
• 19:26
  don't
• 19:26
  have
• 19:27
  to
• 19:27
  worry
• 19:27
  about
• 19:27
  her
• 19:28
  She's
• 19:28
  gonna
• 19:28
  make
• 19:28
  her
• 19:28
  way
• 19:29
  through
• 19:29
  Just
• 19:29
  fine.
• 19:30
  and
• 19:31
  when
• 19:31
  my
• 19:31
  dad
• 19:31
  would
• 19:31
  drop
• 19:32
  us
• 19:32
  off
• 19:32
  at
• 19:32
  school
• 19:33
  as
• 19:33
  kids
• 19:33
  every,
• 19:34
  in
• 19:34
  the
• 19:34
  morning,
• 19:35
  he
• 19:35
  would
• 19:35
  always
• 19:35
  say
• 19:36
  to
• 19:36
  us,
• 19:36
  make
• 19:36
  it
• 19:36
  happen.
• 19:37
  And
• 19:38
  that
• 19:38
  was
• 19:38
  our
• 19:38
  family
• 19:38
  mantra,
• 19:39
  make
• 19:39
  it
• 19:39
  happen.
• 19:40
  And
• 19:40
  then
• 19:40
  as
• 19:41
  artists
• 19:41
  wanting
• 19:41
  to
• 19:41
  be
• 19:41
  an
• 19:42
  artist,
• 19:42
  I
• 19:43
  always
• 19:43
  knew
• 19:43
  that
• 19:44
  nobody
• 19:44
  was
• 19:44
  going
• 19:44
  to
• 19:44
  make
• 19:45
  my
• 19:45
  career
• 19:45
  for
• 19:46
  me.
• 19:46
  Nobody
• 19:46
  cared
• 19:47
  about
• 19:47
  my
• 19:47
  career.
• 19:47
  Like
• 19:47
  I
• 19:48
  cared
• 19:48
  about
• 19:49
  it.
• 19:49
  Nobody
• 19:49
  cared
• 19:49
  about
• 19:50
  my
• 19:50
  success.
• 19:50
  If
• 19:51
  I
• 19:51
  wanted
• 19:51
  those
• 19:51
  things
• 19:52
  in
• 19:52
  life,
• 19:52
  I
• 19:52
  had
• 19:52
  to
• 19:52
  go
• 19:52
  after
• 19:53
  it
• 19:53
  myself
• 19:53
  and
• 19:53
  make
• 19:54
  it
• 19:54
  happen
• 19:54
  for
• 19:54
  myself.
• 19:55
  And
• 19:55
  I
• 19:55
  would.
• 19:56
  I
• 19:56
  would
• 19:56
  share
• 19:56
  that
• 19:57
  message
• 19:57
  with
• 19:57
  other
• 19:57
  women
• 19:58
  who
• 19:58
  were
• 19:58
  artists
• 19:58
  that
• 19:59
  were,
• 19:59
  feeling
• 20:00
  defeated
• 20:01
  or
• 20:01
  feeling
• 20:02
  discouraged
• 20:02
  or
• 20:02
  feeling
• 20:03
  like
• 20:03
  their
• 20:04
  career
• 20:05
  wasn't
• 20:06
  where
• 20:06
  they
• 20:06
  wanted
• 20:07
  it
• 20:07
  to
• 20:07
  be.
• 20:07
  I
• 20:07
  was
• 20:08
  like,
• 20:08
  you
• 20:08
  can't
• 20:08
  rely
• 20:09
  on
• 20:09
  somebody
• 20:09
  else
• 20:10
  to
• 20:10
  make
• 20:10
  your
• 20:10
  career
• 20:10
  for
• 20:10
  you.
• 20:10
  You
• 20:10
  have
• 20:11
  to
• 20:11
  go
• 20:11
  and
• 20:11
  make
• 20:11
  it
• 20:11
  happen
• 20:12
  for
• 20:12
  yourself.
• 20:12
  And
• 20:13
  so
• 20:13
  that
• 20:13
  make
• 20:13
  it
• 20:13
  happen
• 20:14
  mantra.
• 20:15
  that
• 20:15
  was
• 20:15
  taught
• 20:16
  to
• 20:16
  me
• 20:16
  as
• 20:16
  a
• 20:16
  child,
• 20:16
  it's
• 20:17
  really
• 20:17
  carried
• 20:17
  it
• 20:18
  through,
• 20:19
  carried
• 20:19
  me
• 20:19
  through
• 20:20
  life.
• 20:20
  And
• 20:21
  anytime
• 20:21
  anything
• 20:22
  happens
• 20:23
  that
• 20:23
  I
• 20:23
  have
• 20:23
  to
• 20:23
  learn
• 20:24
  something
• 20:24
  new
• 20:24
  or
• 20:24
  I
• 20:24
  have
• 20:24
  to
• 20:25
  develop
• 20:25
  a
• 20:25
  new
• 20:25
  skill,
• 20:26
  it's
• 20:26
  just
• 20:27
  a,
• 20:27
  all
• 20:28
  right,
• 20:28
  I'm
• 20:28
  going
• 20:28
  to
• 20:28
  make
• 20:28
  this
• 20:29
  happen.
• 20:29
  I'm
• 20:29
  going
• 20:29
  to
• 20:29
  learn
• 20:30
  it.
• 20:30
  I'm
• 20:30
  going
• 20:30
  to
• 20:31
  figure
• 20:31
  it
• 20:31
  out.
• 20:31
  I'm
• 20:31
  going
• 20:31
  to
• 20:31
  fake
• 20:32
  it
• 20:32
  till
• 20:32
  I
• 20:32
  make
• 20:32
  it.
• 20:33
  And,
• 20:34
  there's
• 20:34
  certain
• 20:34
  things
• 20:35
  and
• 20:35
  little
• 20:35
  tricks
• 20:36
  that
• 20:36
  I've
• 20:36
  picked
• 20:36
  up
• 20:36
  along
• 20:36
  the
• 20:37
  way
• 20:37
  to
• 20:37
  be
• 20:37
  more
• 20:38
  believable
• 20:38
  when
• 20:38
  you're
• 20:39
  faking
• 20:39
  it,
• 20:39
  you
• 20:39
  know?
• 20:42
  So
• 20:42
  you
• 20:43
  have
• 20:43
  been
• 20:43
  doing
• 20:44
  DIY
• 20:44
  Mom
• 20:45
  for
• 20:46
  how
• 20:46
  many
• 20:46
  years
• 20:46
  now?
• 20:48
  10
• 20:48
  years,
• 20:49
  I
• 20:49
  guess,
• 20:49
  because
• 20:49
  my
• 20:49
  daughter's
• 20:50
  11
• 20:50
  now
• 20:51
  and
• 20:51
  I
• 20:51
  really,
• 20:52
  I
• 20:52
  really
• 20:52
  started
• 20:52
  it
• 20:52
  when
• 20:53
  she
• 20:53
  was
• 20:53
  about
• 20:53
  a
• 20:53
  year
• 20:54
  and
• 20:54
  a
• 20:54
  half.
• 20:54
  Okay.
• 20:55
  It's
• 20:55
  going
• 20:55
  to
• 20:55
  be
• 20:55
  12
• 20:56
  soon,
• 20:56
  but
• 20:56
  yeah,
• 20:57
  so
• 20:57
  10
• 20:57
  years.
• 20:58
  okay.
• 20:59
  And
• 20:59
  what
• 20:59
  plans,
• 21:00
  what
• 21:00
  are
• 21:00
  you
• 21:00
  thinking
• 21:02
  for
• 21:02
  the
• 21:02
  rest
• 21:02
  of
• 21:02
  this
• 21:03
  year
• 21:03
  and
• 21:04
  into
• 21:04
  the
• 21:04
  next
• 21:04
  few
• 21:04
  years?
• 21:05
  what
• 21:05
  are
• 21:05
  your
• 21:05
  goals
• 21:05
  for
• 21:06
  the
• 21:06
  year?
• 21:08
  So
• 21:08
  I
• 21:09
  am,
• 21:09
  I
• 21:09
  just
• 21:10
  bought
• 21:10
  another
• 21:11
  property
• 21:11
  and
• 21:12
  I
• 21:12
  tore
• 21:12
  the
• 21:12
  house
• 21:12
  down.
• 21:13
  So
• 21:13
  this
• 21:13
  is
• 21:13
  a
• 21:13
  brand
• 21:14
  new
• 21:14
  skill
• 21:14
  for
• 21:14
  me
• 21:15
  learning
• 21:15
  how
• 21:15
  to
• 21:15
  build
• 21:15
  from
• 21:15
  scratch
• 21:16
  this
• 21:16
  time.
• 21:17
  I'm
• 21:17
  building
• 21:17
  a
• 21:17
  brand
• 21:18
  new
• 21:18
  house.
• 21:18
  That's
• 21:19
  just
• 21:19
  not
• 21:19
  very
• 21:19
  far
• 21:20
  from
• 21:20
  where
• 21:20
  I
• 21:20
  am
• 21:20
  currently.
• 21:21
  And,
• 21:22
  I'm
• 21:22
  also
• 21:23
  doing
• 21:23
  client
• 21:23
  work
• 21:24
  now.
• 21:24
  So
• 21:24
  a
• 21:24
  couple,
• 21:25
  probably
• 21:25
  about,
• 21:26
  Five
• 21:26
  years
• 21:26
  ago,
• 21:27
  just
• 21:27
  before
• 21:28
  COVID,
• 21:29
  I
• 21:30
  started
• 21:30
  to
• 21:30
  take
• 21:31
  on
• 21:31
  client
• 21:32
  projects
• 21:33
  and
• 21:33
  started
• 21:34
  to
• 21:34
  do
• 21:34
  other
• 21:34
  people's
• 21:35
  renovations
• 21:35
  and
• 21:35
  designs.
• 21:37
  so
• 21:37
  I've
• 21:37
  been
• 21:37
  doing
• 21:37
  that.
• 21:38
  And
• 21:38
  then
• 21:38
  I
• 21:38
  also,
• 21:39
  will
• 21:40
  be
• 21:40
  working
• 21:40
  on
• 21:40
  this
• 21:40
  new
• 21:40
  project
• 21:42
  that
• 21:42
  I'm
• 21:42
  building.
• 21:43
  so
• 21:43
  the,
• 21:44
  so
• 21:44
  those
• 21:44
  are
• 21:44
  like
• 21:45
  the
• 21:45
  two

• 21:48
  that
• 21:48
  I'm
• 21:48
  doing,

  but
• 21:49
  I'm

  also,
• 21:50

• 22:07
  violence
• 22:08
  and
• 22:08
  intimate
• 22:09

• 22:09
  abuse.
• 22:11
  Very

  nice.
• 22:12
  Okay.
• 22:13
  Nice.
• 22:13
  Have

• 22:14
  before?
• 22:15
  No,
• 22:15
  this
• 22:16
  is
• 22:16
  my
• 22:16
  first
• 22:16
  time
• 22:16
  going.
• 22:17
  My
• 22:17
  parents,
• 22:17
  got
• 22:18
  involved
• 22:18
  with
• 22:19
  Hope
• 22:19
  of
• 22:19
  Africa.
• 22:20
  It's
• 22:20
  a
• 22:20
  leadership
• 22:21
  school
• 22:21
  for
• 22:21
  kids
• 22:22
  and
• 22:23
  they
• 22:23
  are
• 22:24
  we
• 22:24
  and
• 22:24
  then
• 22:25
  actually
• 22:25
  they
• 22:26
  my
• 22:26
  parents
• 22:27
  ended
• 22:27
  up
• 22:27
  when
• 22:28
  they
• 22:28
  went
• 22:28
  there
• 22:28
  last
• 22:28
  year
• 22:29
  helping
• 22:30
  hope
• 22:30
  of
• 22:30
  Africa
• 22:30
  purchase
• 22:31
  a
• 22:31
  farm
• 22:32
  that
• 22:32
  they
• 22:32
  will
• 22:33
  be
• 22:33
  using
• 22:33
  to
• 22:33
  teach
• 22:34
  agriculture
• 22:34
  to
• 22:35
  the
• 22:35
  kids
• 22:35
  because
• 22:36
  there
• 22:36
  was
• 22:36
  a
• 22:36
  whole
• 22:36
  generation
• 22:37
  that
• 22:37
  died
• 22:38
  from
• 22:38
  HIV
• 22:39
  and
• 22:39
  the
• 22:39
  children
• 22:40
  didn't
• 22:41
  get
• 22:41
  passed
• 22:41
  down
• 22:42
  the
• 22:44
  The,
• 22:45
  how
• 22:45
  to
• 22:45
  take
• 22:46
  care
• 22:46
  of
• 22:46
  the
• 22:46
  land,
• 22:46
  how
• 22:47
  to
• 22:47
  be
• 22:47
  a
• 22:47
  farmer
• 22:47
  from
• 22:47
  their
• 22:48
  parents.
• 22:48
  So
• 22:48
  it
• 22:49
  was
• 22:49
  sort
• 22:49
  of
• 22:49
  this,
• 22:50
  a
• 22:50
  lot
• 22:50
  of
• 22:50
  these
• 22:50
  sort
• 22:51
  of
• 22:51
  skills
• 22:51
  that
• 22:51
  were
• 22:51
  handed
• 22:52
  down
• 22:52
  from
• 22:52
  one
• 22:52
  generation
• 22:53
  to
• 22:53
  expert
• 22:53
  lost.
• 22:54
  So
• 22:55
  the
• 22:55
  farm,
• 22:56
  will
• 22:56
  be
• 22:56
  used
• 22:57
  for,
• 22:57
  teaching
• 22:58
  agricultural
• 22:58
  skills
• 22:59
  and
• 22:59
  developing
• 23:00
  the
• 23:00
  skills
• 23:00
  of,
• 23:01
  in
• 23:01
  the
• 23:01
  community.
• 23:02
  And
• 23:02
  I'm
• 23:02
  going
• 23:03
  actually
• 23:03
  to
• 23:03
  film
• 23:04
  content
• 23:05
  for
• 23:05
  them
• 23:06
  and
• 23:06
  to
• 23:06
  interview
• 23:06
  people
• 23:07
  and
• 23:07
  to
• 23:07
  create
• 23:07
  marketing
• 23:07
  material
• 23:08
  for
• 23:09
  Hope
• 23:09
  of
• 23:09
  Africa
• 23:10
  so
• 23:10
  that
• 23:10
  they
• 23:10
  can
• 23:10
  share
• 23:11
  what
• 23:11
  they're
• 23:11
  doing
• 23:12
  and
• 23:12
  raise
• 23:13
  more
• 23:13
  funds
• 23:13
  and,
• 23:14
  and
• 23:14
  support
• 23:15
  for
• 23:15
  the
• 23:15
  farm
• 23:16
  to
• 23:16
  keep
• 23:16
  it,
• 23:16
  to
• 23:16
  keep
• 23:17
  it
• 23:17
  running.
• 23:18
  Okay.
• 23:18
  Very
• 23:18
  nice.
• 23:19
  That
• 23:19
  sounds
• 23:19
  like
• 23:19
  a
• 23:20
  great
• 23:20
  trip.
• 23:21
  Yeah.
• 23:21
  I'm
• 23:21
  excited.
• 23:22
  Yeah.
• 23:22
  Yeah.
• 23:26
  Good.
• 23:27
  Okay.
• 23:27
  Well,
• 23:29
  do
• 23:29
  you
• 23:29
  have
• 23:29
  any
• 23:31
  parting
• 23:31
  advice,
• 23:32
  anything
• 23:33
  you
• 23:33
  want
• 23:33
  to
• 23:33
  share
• 23:33
  with
• 23:33
  the
• 23:34
  audience
• 23:35
  before
• 23:35
  we
• 23:36
  close?
• 23:38
  Yeah.
• 23:38
  I
• 23:38
  think
• 23:39
  that
• 23:41
  just
• 23:42
  if
• 23:42
  you
• 23:42
  have
• 23:42
  an
• 23:42
  idea
• 23:43
  and
• 23:43
  you
• 23:43
  think
• 23:43
  it's
• 23:43
  a
• 23:44
  good
• 23:44
  idea
• 23:44
  and
• 23:45
  you
• 23:45
  feel
• 23:45
  passionate
• 23:45
  about
• 23:45
  it,
• 23:46
  don't
• 23:46
  let
• 23:46
  people
• 23:47
  discourage
• 23:47
  you
• 23:47
  from
• 23:48
  doing
• 23:48
  it.
• 23:50
  and
• 23:51
  make
• 23:52
  it
• 23:52
  happen.
• 23:53
  Just
• 23:53
  set
• 23:53
  your
• 23:54
  intentions,
• 23:54
  write
• 23:55
  down
• 23:55
  your
• 23:55
  goals,
• 23:56
  and
• 23:57
  if
• 23:57
  you
• 23:57
  do
• 23:57
  one
• 23:57
  thing
• 23:58
  every
• 23:58
  day
• 23:59
  toward
• 23:59
  that
• 24:00
  goal,
• 24:01
  it's
• 24:01
  going
• 24:01
  to
• 24:01
  happen
• 24:02
  for
• 24:02
  you.
• 24:03
  And
• 24:03
  so
• 24:03
  I
• 24:03
  just
• 24:04
  would
• 24:04
  encourage
• 24:05
  people
• 24:05
  to,
• 24:06
  and
• 24:06
  women,
• 24:07
  whatever
• 24:08
  place
• 24:08
  they
• 24:09
  are
• 24:09
  in
• 24:09
  life,
• 24:09
  and
• 24:09
  if
• 24:10
  they're
• 24:10
  looking
• 24:10
  to
• 24:10
  make
• 24:10
  a
• 24:10
  transition
• 24:11
  or
• 24:11
  a
• 24:11
  change,
• 24:13
  that
• 24:14
  yes,
• 24:14
  it
• 24:15
  will
• 24:15
  be
• 24:15
  difficult,
• 24:16
  but
• 24:17
  It
• 24:17
  can
• 24:18
  also
• 24:18
  be
• 24:18
  very
• 24:18
  fulfilling
• 24:19
  and
• 24:19
  fun.
• 24:20
  And
• 24:20
  as
• 24:20
  we
• 24:20
  get
• 24:21
  older,
• 24:21
  it's
• 24:21
  great
• 24:21
  to
• 24:21
  learn
• 24:22
  new
• 24:22
  skills.
• 24:24
  Keep
• 24:24
  your
• 24:24
  mind
• 24:24
  sharp.
• 24:25
  Keep
• 24:25
  life
• 24:26
  exciting.
• 24:27
  And
• 24:28
  keep
• 24:28
  that
• 24:28
  adventure
• 24:29
  rolling.
• 24:31
  Exactly.
• 24:31
  Yes.
• 24:32
  I
• 24:32
  couldn't
• 24:32
  have
• 24:32
  said
• 24:32
  it
• 24:32
  better
• 24:33
  myself.
