What has been the biggest lesson in 10 years since you were a bad to now, personally, physically and financially.
Oh, man. Let me think. Okay. The biggest lessons since I wrote you because.
Because when you get more money, more impact, more celebrity fame in an industry, people change around you. Some people don't, some people do.
Right.
You get to make different choices with your, with your health.
Right.
In positive or negative.
Right.
You have more abundance to do bad things or good things.
Yeah.
And you get to see how you show up emotionally, spiritually.
That's such an interesting question. You know, I definitely feel like since it came out and has had the success, you know, that I've gotten better and better at really. This sounds cold, but like not caring what other people think about me, like that is something that I'm really dedicated to right now. Where it's like the one star reviews and the five star reviews, you know, it's like, believe me, I'm so grateful anybody reads the book. But the five star reviews are the real dangerous ones. Right. Where you're just like, I'm so cool. People think I'm funny and smart, you know, really getting good inside. Like just being like, it doesn't matter as long as I think it's good and I think it's funny and I think it's helpful. That's it. And so that has been really important to me because it is weird. I mean, I'm sure you too, like, people know who you are and it's like, it's a little uncomfortable sometimes. I mean, it's great too. Like, I love meeting my readers, but it's just like I can't get too wrapped up in their opinion of me because it's about my opinion of me. So that's been a really big one.
So not letting the opinions of others be the opinions of you about you.
Right? Yeah.
Interesting.
Just really coming from the high hype.
And the low low.
Yeah, definitely. Because you hear a lot about the low lows. Like don't focus on the criticism. But you really gotta watch it with the five star stuff too. Yeah. Cause then if it goes away, you're screwed. Right. You're totally screwed. I mean, that's why so many celebrities wind up in rehab, you know, Especially if you. I always think about this too, that I'm so glad for me anyway, that it started when I was older.
If I was 20, oh man, I.
Was getting all these accolades. I would be such an idiot. I know. Like, no way. So I'm really great. I'm so grateful for all of it. My God.
Yeah. That's. Personally. What about this lesson? Financially?
Financially, Um, I guess I, I love giving money away. Like, I didn't, I really honestly never thought I was that generous of a person, but I am. But so I'm very happy to find that out about myself because I didn't really think that I was, but also that I, I was just making fun of this this morning with a friend of mine that I'm still kind of cheap with myself in ways. Like, I'm not great at. Like, I mean, I have a nice house, I have a nice car. I certainly spend plenty of money on myself, but I can just be like, I'm not good at being rich and, like, getting room service and, like spending, I'm just, I'm still kind of, you know, the Italian immigrant's daughter who sort of pays attention.
