But then, as the pandemic was going on, I was kind of thinking, Were all human beings. We all have similar experiences. Im sure theres somebody out there with the exact same situation as me. So I might as well open up my life. I want to build a fan base of honesty and authenticity. And I was like, I have to go there. When I feel like I shouldnt do it, I feel like thats when I should definitely go for it.”
