Because if you suffer in silence, it's really hard to see the daylight. If you suffer in silence, you don't raise your hand. And so the most important thing is go, I'm not alone. And I'm a person of faith. I believe in God.

And when those times I feel stuck, I just think I'm like, you know what? I'm like, okay, I'm in this battle right now.

I'm zapping myself into the ground.

And then I had this metaphor and I just remember, I'm like, you know what though? This battle is really, it just sucks. But you know what? Because I have faith. Faith means there's a forward position. And I believe that in this forward position, I got the great commander out there with an army of angels and they're clearing fields in front of me.
