“Well, what would I wish I had known at the beginning? You know, there isn't a lot there isn't a lot that I wish I'd known first, because it's been a whole journey and you never can tell what's going to happen next. You never can tell. You never know what direction you're going to go, what's going to sort of push you off into a new direction. You know, I'm really happy with my journey.”
