I’m genuinely happy with where I’ve ended up. I sort of think that’s rare in this industry. I definitely get frustrated at times, but I don’t know, I like who I am now and I wouldn’t be her if anything changed. But... in that vein, the advice I would give is:
“You know who you are. Stick with her and you’ll be alright.”
