You're not enough.

And JR heard every little thing.

After everybody else heard it and they didn't think it was special.

And overnight, I'm talking within 12 hours.

I put that song out.

Allison Jones over at Big Machine, she sent me a DM and I still work with her to this day.

And she said, you have to call me in the morning.

You found your three minutes.

And literally the next day, it was like, I got goosebumps.

My whole life changed.

And I think it's just so important to remember.

You just never know when that moment is going to shift.

And like my life has never been the same since then.

And it was on the song that was like not the hit.

He, so this is when I'm feeling at 25, like I'm old news in town and he was just kind of getting into the country scene.

He was working with Marin, um,

And he was like, no, I like, I want to work with you.

And he just started writing with me and we started working together.

And so we started having this success together and he became family.

When you, when you work so closely with these people and, um, you make music with them and you let them into like your brain and, and, you know, your secrets and the things that you really want to sing about and what you stand for.
