AttributeError: partially initialized module 'mem0.embeddings.ollama' has no attribute 'OllamaEmbedding' (most likely due to a circular import)

🐛 Describe the bug

Just trying to run the Ollama example https://docs.mem0.ai/examples/mem0-with-ollama.

python ollama.py

Hey @schniggie Can you please install the mem0 in new env? Because it seems that the embedding model from Ollama has been working well for me, both with and without using the LLM from Ollama.
