I felt like, you know how I was missing that part of me, then not having somebody to talk to and, you know, decide. And I kind of felt lost, you know, talking to friends. Everybody has its own perspective. Yeah. And yeah, everybody looks at their own life. Like one of them that lives in Central Coast says, why do you want to leave? You know, it's beautiful Central Coast. That's one reason I bought here because she motivated me. But that wasn't me. Yeah, so they do, they project their own life into you. And, um, I think you coming from what I was explaining, so you weren't in my life before, you didn't have to judge me from, you know, when I was going to uni and stuff. You haven't seen me before, what I went through, but you got the quick version of me from myself. And yeah, it was really good to, um, and, and I know that you're a smart person. I looked at your background and I, I really, um For me, it's a big thing. My dad was very educated, educated, and he was somebody I looked up to. And he was very work-driven and educated person. And everybody, everybody looked up to him. And I really do. I've learned my life to respect people who have, you know, education. And, you know, there are smarter people. They didn't go after education for no reason. There are smarter people in general. I know I'm not saying uneducated is not as smart, but especially people who do, they've proven themselves that they are, I think. I don't know if that's a snobby thing to say or not, but it is for me. I respect that part of people. And then, um, yeah, yeah, it's good to know, to get your insight. And, um, yeah, and also especially that you're connected to what I say about my work. A lot of people don't understand. My ex-partner would not understand what I was talking about, my, my job, when I told him it's hard for me move job. He could not understand. He was in business. It's totally different. He was like, why couldn't— can't you? Like, I can't physically, can't. So I felt like, you know, I had somebody who could understand me more. And, and I value your, you know, your suggestions and insight. Yeah. What I learned most, that, um, yeah, I can do things by myself. I do it. I've done it on my own anyway. What am I doing? But I kind of feel this is very important before I forget. I was like very strong. And I feel like I'm having that part of me coming back to me. I'm actually discovering myself again because I went through a lot. And I remember my therapist said to me, you have done it. You just have to find it to bring it back because you lost it over this, you know. Breakup or whatever, this relationship. And I'm feeling that, that part of me, strong girl, you know, no need anyone, this me, it's coming back a bit, you know. I'm discovering myself again. Yeah, which is good to bring it back because I've got it inside me. Yeah, but yeah, yeah, I feel much better. Yeah, yeah, I think I feel more motivated. I actually want to move. That makes sense. I'm getting boxes from tomorrow and I'm putting, setting, setting This is the thing. I think setting time and date is important. Yeah, it doesn't— like, it was very scary, but it's getting less scary. That's what's changed. Yeah, I think talking to you, if I can point to one thing, has made it less scary. I was really scared. I was very feeling lonely. I'm making a mistake. What am I doing? I was so skeptical, you know, but now I feel more stronger to do it. Yeah. Um, would you recommend these 5 days to someone else like you? Absolutely. Yeah, absolutely. Yes. All of them. Oh, that's so wonderful.
