I also think this metaphor could have been problematic because she earlier said she was studying music, likely something she greatly enjoys. Suggesting (even remotely) that she might have to give up music to progress forward I think was a gaffe on my part. Sorry also about the noise. While we both likely understand that I have no control over the background noise in this spot, I am sorry for the challenging audio. Something that comes with filming in public, I suppose.
