Chapters
Over the 5 days with Vicky Samios, I think I said the things that I couldn't even express to myself. I expressed it to you, so that was a bit of an eye-opener. I repeated myself to you many times. That made me think about my thoughts deeper.
Absolutely.
From the beginning, my 2 dentist friends in Turkey who are like, they have to open their practice Uh, they had to divorce.
I don't want that to ever happen to anyone over a business.
I, I been witness so many things and I don't want that happen to my life. Um, that made, made me, our conversations made me think that I can, I'm into this, I can go forward. Uh, if I have, if I am surrounded with the right people that supports me. You made me realize I can do this. I think I made the decision regardless of the things. I made my decision with you. I think there was a breakthrough.
Big breakthrough, because after day 3, you're like, I know what I'm doing now. And how much progress did you make?
Uh, I'm at the beginning, not much, maybe 5% of a progress, but it is a progress, right?
That's realistic. We're not going to solve like the world's problems in 5 days.
However, it got you on. I still, I don't know what I don't know.
That's very wise.
Uh, same like a, you know, hamster ring. I keep going in and out from that. Circle. I can't— I couldn't get out of the circle. But thank you, and behind the scenes, my husband, uh, I'm getting through my circle of years of years of— I thought I'm planning things, but then communication, um, problems with certain people surrounding me, I just can't, couldn't go further. Even my husband said, you could have done it. Yeah, why didn't you? You can do it. Lack of, lack of, um, community, I think, or lack of support, or you don't have that connection for people who can understand you. Things are breaking, I can feel it.
Yeah, absolutely. You're shifting and you're at a time in your life where you want different things, and that's okay. That's important. I think it's okay.
It doesn't have to be like that forever.
It's totally amazing. Okay, because you're going to craft now for your next 6 months, 12 months, 1 year, 3 years, 5 years. Jen, would you recommend this to someone else just like you?
Oh, definitely. Um, If someone is struggling, express themselves and they can't find anyone to talk to or just sharing ideas, you know, someone like you who can— you can— we can chat about anything really.
