Key takeaways
Quotable Moments:
"I think marriage is a continual choice. Whether that takes 10 years to get married or it takes nine months to get married, if you are with somebody that is willing to work on it with you... the time thing doesn't make a big difference."
"It was paralysing to be honest and it was so different to who I thought I was... I didn't want to leave the house ever. And that was crazy to me because I'm a social person."
"There's a peace that you cannot describe... being in the middle of a lake, just looking around and taking that in, it makes you realise that you're quite small... it reminds you of the big things in life."
