On X, she revealed back in February 2024, “I became a child psychologist at 24. Something I wanted my entire life. Was cool, loved my job. Then wanted to do something else 😬. Life.”

However, in an interview with ‘The State of Florida Sports’ podcast, the former AEW star also revealed that she believed she wasn’t “mentally mature” enough to be in the position that she was. Cargill further revealed how that job was emotionally straining as “take your heart out of your chest.” when working with child psychology.

That’s one thing I’ve learned is patience and she’s learned patience as well, because we’re so used to doing our own thing.”

“If I need any type of sound advice, like some hard advice from a woman, that’s the woman I go to because she’s the type of woman like I am,” Cargill stated regarding Naomi. “I’m not letting anybody mess with my bag. I’m going to go out there, do the work, keep my head down, and be a pro at all of this. She is definitely a pro at all of this.
