So if I'm going from suicide awareness, to mental health, to the military, to the veterans, to sexual assault, sexual trafficking, Alzheimer's, this, this, cancer society, which I'm speaking next month, Everything's a reason. Everything's a choice.

And you have to be that person that has that empathy, compassion to understand that everybody's human because you want them to treat you exactly like you want to treat them.

It's honestly, it's reflex. You know, it's like, you know, and I have to say, you know, the military embedded in so many different tenures in me that I never knew I had, especially leadership tenure at a very young age and which fortunately for my mom and my dad, because I got up every morning and helped and was on a farm and did this and, you know, had jobs and I didn't have a normal childhood.

And at one point in time, I used to think, man, this sucks. I don't have a normal childhood. And now I think, man, I had the best childhood I could ever possibly have.

I said, when that day happened,

Those were our triggers and things that come back where people don't understand when they say, I have triggers. No, we have triggers. They're all different, but they're all meaningful for each person. But for me, when that happened, I didn't know what was happening.
