And I want to pour into you. So you have a question for me and I'll let you go first.

So you want advice on what you should do? All right, Tahira. I would say, and I've dealt with this, you know, even being where I am now, and I've always been the risk taker of the family, you know, and my family, I love them, but my parents played it very safe. They were always like, get an education, get a degree, and get a good job with a 401k. And start a family.

So when I was in college, I knew by 25, I'd be married, having kids. And that was what was laid out for me. But I had so much more that I wanted to do. And often my parents did not understand that. And if I had have listened, because at that point you're an adult, so it's not like we're telling children to not obey and listen to their parents.

When you get to an age where you can make your decisions on your own, I feel like you should take a stance and do what's best for you and let your family know that you love them and that you're always going to be for them because you can't choose your family. You're stuck with them for life. But there comes a time where you have to really ask yourself, what do I want? What does Tahira want?

and go for that because you never want to look back on your life and be like, what would it have been like if I had stepped out on faith? I never want to live my life with regret. And I want to tell you guys a story. This was President Obama's first campaign. I did everything my parents told me to do. I got an education, I got the great job on Capitol Hill, got a great job, 401K, all the things.

And President Obama's, well, at that point he was Senator Obama, his assistant came and said, hey, we got some paid jobs for the campaign, do you want to come do it? Me being the risk taker, I'm ready to quit this job and go work for this black man. I'm like, hell yeah! Sign me up! My parents were like, no. Like, why would you do that? He's not gonna win.
