  • At first, I just wanted to say, that since you just mentioned stuck, I was stuck for a very long time. Yeah. So, anyone, I'm no more special than any one of you. Anyone can rise and get in their highest personal power.
  • And that's the thing we really have to work on, on that self-esteem. That is such a big component. That's a lot to go through, like a machete, you know, going through. If you, if you aren't, if you aren't working on that part, it's really, I think it's really hard.
