Hello.

Well, I'm calling in with a question.

I've been through a divorce, and I have a five-year-old little girl, so I'm living with my parents.

My parents have been so supportive, but I am feeling pressured just by my own, I guess, expectations to move out around two years.

I feel like that's a pretty good goal, but because of what I'm trying to save...

I'm nervous that, um, I should rethink my dream of building our house or I should rethink my timeframe.

So I was just curious what you guys had to say about that.

Um, well, I guess, um,

I'm struggling with, like, my parents have sat me down and been like, are you kidding?

Like, we want to be supportive during this time.

Like, they're amazing, and they're such, they're incredible.

But I just feel guilty, and I also feel like through all of this and the divorce, I feel like I've failed in a lot of different ways, but I feel like

I just need to be able to show my little girl.

I guess I feel I'm putting pressure on myself, but I think sometimes that's good.

As a parent, I have expectations for myself, but I do struggle with perfectionism.

No.

I don't know.

Well, I've been looking at homes and basically what I'm finding in my area is like yeeks.

There's just everything's just really expensive.

And then it's just not at all what I want.
