00:00:03

00:00:10
Houston in my videos or just have being on a podcast, chilled out with you. Yeah. When when did you um Yeah. When
00:00:16
did you realize like vulnerability was um like something to lean into and almost like a superpower? I had a
00:00:21
emotionally unstable childhood. So, I wasn't being I didn't really have my
00:00:24
parents around to kind of talk about feelings and emotions. So, you know, throughout my whole life, I ended up
00:00:30
holding a lot in. And then when you hold stuff in, I think they resurface in more
00:00:35
unhealthy ways. And for me, they probably resurfaced in, you know, anxiety, insecureness, lack of
