And i- and then you were like, "Okay, it's kinda toxic," or, "This isn't really for me," or, "It helps sup- supplement my income, but I wanna do something a little bit more s- steadier." What, what were your thoughts?

Yeah.

I mean, I was so thankful for the adult industry.

You know, I mean, it really did help me get through college and, um, you know, pay for life at that time.

And, um, I do feel like, you know, you and I really did that at the heyday of dancing.

Um, it was a great time, I mean, in, in that industry where you could make a ri- I mean, a ridiculous amount of money.

Um, and it was, it was glamorous, you know? I feel like even when I went back to, like, more normal life, um, I did miss it and I, you know, I probably romanticized it a little bit in my memory, um, going forward, and I always thought, "Oh, gosh," you know, "remember when," all these exciting stories, um, the different people you meet in the clubs, especially in Vegas at that time.

... that healthy lifestyle.
