Hi, I'm Chloe. I'm a photographer and I work at Lush. Okay, Chloe, it's time to, it's time to kind of knuckle down and start sorting your life out. Yeah. It was the most impactful bit, just seeing it, because I'm such a visual person. I did it twice and I have another page and it's kind of good to see how much my life had changed in the course of like a month. I think, yeah, I think I've definitely grown as a person since doing it. I had a mindset of being kind of living living my life for how I wanted it, but not how I was living in the moment. Doing this course was essentially me asking for help, and it was a— and then looking back and evaluating it, it was a big aha. Yes, Chloe, see, when you ask for help, it helps. Like, yeah, I think that's probably the biggest takeaway. Yeah, I think it's really good to evaluate your life, even if you think everything's going okay. And now I just feel a lot more confident. Also, I found my self-worth a lot more, being like, getting Photography jobs. Like, I turned down a job that was free. Like, they didn't want to pay me, and I was like, oh well, actually my day rate is this. Getting my first client that isn't a friend, that was good. Getting paid, that was good. That was really nice. Some people just walk into a room and it's not like a big energy, but they have an energy, and that's you. When you come into a room, you just have such an amazing energy about you. Are you gonna say, because I see that in myself? Aww.
