Um, for me it's it's vulnerability, you
00:00:01
know, just being able to express myself
00:00:03
and and be myself. I think that that
00:00:06
makes me confident. Yeah. Whether
00:00:08
that's, you know, lip-syncing to Whitney
00:00:10
Houston in my videos or just have being
00:00:12
on a podcast, chilled out with you.
00:00:14
Yeah. When when did you um Yeah. When
00:00:16
did you realize like vulnerability was
00:00:18
um like something to lean into and
00:00:20
almost like a superpower? I had a
00:00:21
emotionally unstable childhood. So, I
00:00:23
wasn't being I didn't really have my
00:00:24
parents around to kind of talk about
00:00:27
feelings and emotions. So, you know,
00:00:29
throughout my whole life, I ended up
00:00:30
holding a lot in. And then when you hold
00:00:32
stuff in, I think they resurface in more
00:00:35
unhealthy ways. And for me, they
00:00:37
probably resurfaced in, you know,
00:00:39
anxiety, insecureness, lack of
00:00:42
confidence.
