In this episode Cariad opens up on her insightful thoughts on the doors she tried so hard to open in her life, but when it's that hard maybe a different door is the one you should go through! Her Sliding Doors Moments include: Not getting the A-level results to go to the Uni she wanted to but meeting someone very special at the one she did, being fire from a job that led her to create her own 'sell out' show, deciding last minute to go to a rehearsal she didn't want to... that changed everything!
