00:43You are.
00:44I'm excited, let's do it.
00:49My very first time performing and my uncle challenged me to limbo under the beer bottles.
00:54I love a challenge.
00:55I stretched and practiced and practiced.
00:58I went under those beer bottles.
01:13Oh my god, that was amazing! I can't believe you went under the thing that was so low on the
01:17ground.
01:17How do you feel?
01:18I feel good.
01:20It's definitely very difficult to do but I got through it.
01:24How are your knees? How do you get down?
01:26I've been so flexible my whole life. I've been practicing and I'm just able to do it.
01:31Well, it was absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for coming on the show.
01:34Now, have you got any advice for our young ladies out there who are looking maybe not to do limbo
01:39but something else amazing with their life?
01:41Always follow your dreams and to really stay focused on whatever it is that makes you happy.
01:46Such good advice. Thank you so much for coming on the show.
