Right? But also, you know, tell us about your personal journey so that it can help us understand everyone else's journey.
Trang NovaGUEST
Well, with just that question alone, Michael, I could talk [laughs] for the next 60 minutes.
Trang NovaGUEST
So where do I even start with this? To kick things off, I have lived multiple lifetimes.
Trang NovaGUEST
I graduated university as a physiotherapist, which is not what I do now, because after a few years of practice, I had an experience that changed everything.
Trang NovaGUEST
So in short, what happened was I had gotten up early to go for a run one morning, and when I stepped out onto the footpath to begin, I heard a crunch.
Trang NovaGUEST
And I was like, "What? What's that? What's going on?" I looked down and had stepped on a snail.
Trang NovaGUEST
Now, this is not the first time I've stepped on a snail, and I'm [laughs] sure many of you have done the same.
