So that's a hard question. Not because I don't know the answer, but because sometimes these are hard to share, right? One of the biggest things I struggle with, I have a special needs child and he's high functioning. He's gonna live at life just fine, but he's got several learning disabilities. He's the reason I homeschool one of those kids who's super brilliant outside the box, but you put him in a classroom and he completely fails. And I've learned how to work with him, how to teach him in the way that he actually understands and works with. I've had a child with an addiction that I've had to work through. That was a lot of hard years. There was a lot of years of struggle in the beginning of my writing with self-worth as a singer. I was super, super visible. This is not something I like to necessarily tell a lot of people.
The ugly part, which is when you're getting to the raw part.
We all have something or multiple things!!
Exactly.
And I think this is really good for people to understand. It hurts.
It does. Shifting into the being a full-time stay-at-home mom and being a writer actually was a really hard transition for me as a singer. I was super visible and I was at a soloist. I wasn't someone just in the choir. And so I would go places and have people stop me and say, I saw you sing at this, you know? And when you're home with four toddlers and you're changing diapers on three of them all day long, that's not a visible thing. Right. And it's really easy to get lost in that and it's really easy to feel like nobody notices what I do. But I'm working harder at being a mom than I ever worked at being an opera singer and transitioning into authorship and being a writer gave me an outlet. But it's not necessarily something that's super visible either, which is fine, I've gotten past that.
