How do you nourish yourself through that? Is there a process that you do to take care of yourself during these days?
8:50
Um, I'm a big believer in self-care.
8:55
[laughs] I remember when, you know, our kids were little.
8:59
You know, now our, now I'm an empty nester.

Um, 18-year-old who just went off to college, and then my daughter, who's 24 years old, college graduate.

And, um, but I've always believed in, you know, whether it was a morning walk, um, getting a monthly massage.

What happens when you are in the process of developing your recipes? I'm curious about that process.
10:31
Have you developed deep relationships with other food creators in this space?
10:35
For sure.

I remember, you know, when I first started, I mean, when somebody even suggested to me to start a blog.
10:42
I literally had to Google, what is a blog? I didn't even know what a blog was.
10:46
And I was a graphic designer at the time.
10:48
And so I was like, oh, I could design a cute little logo and a little website and just share my stories.
10:55
And as I was Googling, I would look up, you know, other Mexican recipes.
