Okay, so obviously Ari and I are best friends in the whole world. We're sisters, we're business partners, we're ministry partners, we do everything together. Do we get into it a little bit once in a while? Don't forget that we're from the East Coast too. We also didn't grow up Christian, so it is a constant battle between the BCS and the saved us.

And so there's nothing funnier than we were in a little tiff recently. And the beautiful thing about Ari and I is, you know, we... We might argue once. It's never about anything. By the way, it's never about anything serious. The beautiful thing about us is there's never been one fundamental issue.

What are you two doing, you idiots? And so now I've become this overly emotional, like, whatever. And so, and Ari's just, like, fully avoided half the time. And so we're, like, arguing something out. And then it gets heated for a second. We start whatever. Ari starts getting all her stuff together. And I'm like, all right, fine, go. No, you know what? Sit down. Sit down. I take her stuff.

And I'm like, you're sitting down until we figure this out. We're sitting on opposite sides of the couch. We're not having it. And then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, we're holding hands, telling each other we would die without it.

I love that moment. You know? And like Ari was saying, healthy boundaries are good. Like any therapist would recommend healthy boundaries. But boundaries that cause disconnection, I think that's where we can get a little muddled. Like boundaries that cause a relationship to be completely surface level. I don't... That's not... I don't know.

You don't give up and you just โ€“ You say this all the time, but you just realize that everybody's broken, everybody's lost, everybody's struggling. And, you know, again, if somebody's hurting you or is really bad or it's just, like, really, really bad for you to be in that, like, that is not โ€“ we're not telling you to stay in those. But it really is about โ€“ It's just about commitment.

Like you have to commit to things. You have to commit to people. Like you and I are committed to each other. So we're committed to hearing each other out. We're committing to growth. John and I's relationship has taught me a lot about that too where I just have the most grace in my heart. It's a supernatural work of Jesus, clearly.
