It's been a rollercoaster ride. There have been some great moments and some low points... like when I was leaving Stax. That's when I actually thought of getting out of the business.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
What I got out of it was a great experience working with great people and it becoming a tremendous - basically - a family at the end that none of us wanted to leave.
You have your bad moments in your career and your good moments. And it's been a good ride so far, but it's not over yet.
All in all, it's been a wonderful, wonderful ride. I don't plan on stopping anytime soon.
I feel incredibly fortunate I walked away, took care of other business, and then came back to show business.
There were so many points where I was like, 'I can't do this.' It was too exhausting. It's just a lot, and then suddenly something happens, and your career changes, and it's so much fun and wonderful. I look back on those moments, and I'm so glad I didn't give up.
I actually quit the business. I went and drove a truck for a year and a half.
It's been a pretty fun ride, to tell you the truth.
The joy is in the getting there. The beginning years of starting your business, the camaraderie when you're in the pit together, are the best years of your life. So rather than being so focused on when you get big and powerful, if you can just get the juice out of that... don't miss it.
The transition was difficult. It's hard to stop something that you've enjoyed and that has been very rewarding.
It was sad leaving 'All Saints' because I was leaving a family that had nurtured me and looked after me for a couple of years, and at the same time that particular storyline wasn't a surprise to me. I knew I was going. It had been worked out very carefully over many months.
