And it does come with that esteem.

I think the more I get self-esteem and self-love, and I am enough, I am lovable, I am enough, then the more I feel like, you know, I used to think...

I had to love you to love me.

And in the last five, seven years, I found, no, I got to love me to love you fully, you know.

And I have to be enough for you to be enough, you know.

And that's where I get my self-worth from, where I don't have to be the main character in the plot.

For me, it's been about, and I've said this before, it's like cyclical.

My recovery has been about going back to that little girl.

I can see when I tell my story, I talked about how I started altering myself with fantasy and food.

And and then how I how I went through and it's about coming back to that little girl and how I abandoned that little girl.

And I hated that little girl and I was ashamed of that little girl.

And it's about going back and loving that little girl.

It is in healing that little girl and accepting that little girl and saying and making amends to that little girl.

And that's making amends to me and saying, I'm sorry.

And really, really rejoicing in that little girl, that shy little fat little, you know.

idealistic how beautiful you know how beautiful and I didn't see it then but I see it today you know and see it's making me get emotional now but it's about going back and embracing that you know and you do a great job at talking about that journey too man like I've been fortunate enough to hear you give your story many times and and there's just this beautiful spirit that comes there

Yeah, or the Douglas, the little boy, the little boy sitting in the bathtub with the cold water because they were scared to get out with the sister, you know, to be able to embrace that little boy and say, guess what?

I love you and I can keep you safe today, you know, and stuff like that.

You know, and the little girl that I did damage by having sex at like 14, you know, a little girl having sex and just saying, you know, I'm sorry I did that to you, you know, and the self-destructive and not being self-destructive today, you know.

There's a lot of people that are too.
