The most significant moment would probably be the one I just had by choosing to go after something like the Voice at my age, at my stage of my career. And that was frightening. But I knew it was the only thing I had to play catch up, you know, because I was a recording artist in the 90s. Then I became background singer to the stars, all in the 2000. So I spent 25 years trying to figure out a way to get back out front. So the only way to get back out front when Covid shut everything down, that was my window because everybody was afraid. Nobody knew if we would ever be be in a setting where we all could be together again. Since everybody's afraid in the music business, it's my chance to get out there and if the Voice takes me, then that's the path I'm going to take and then I'll know to continue that journey. Otherwise, if they had said no, I would have to come up with another solution.
