You know, you have your family.

you could keep all this in the past.

And while it is there, you know, I think there's something incredible about taking what happened

and using it now to help others you know and let people know they aren't alone because you know it's it's so easy to just you know life is busy it's very easy to just keep the ball rolling push things in the back push things in the back but it is better to talk about things you know even if it is just a few therapy sessions like it's not nobody's saying like you have to be dedicated and committed to speaking to somebody every day for the rest of your life but I think

acknowledging that it's not fair for you to hold the guilt.

Life's too short.

It's not fair to beat ourselves up, have guilt, have blame, anything.

Because that takes away from other aspects of our lives, from ourself, from our partner, from children, anything.

So I think that it's amazing that you made that decision as well.

Because that's scary too.

Even to open up old wounds and be like, all right, where do I start?

Let me just pour it all out.

And I think there is something –

empowering about that because you are able to to speak out about it and be like wow like I'm stronger than I thought that I'm able to go back through these details because it isn't always an easy thing to do yeah it's not it's not always easy and I think it's something that it's easier to talk to a stranger about

Absolutely.

Because there's not as much judgment there.

It's like they're very unbiased.

Like, just tell me your story kind of thing.

Yeah.

Right.
