And it dawns on me that at 15 years old, when I'm wearing a bikini, I got molested.
I was on a beach, something crazy that happened.
And at the end of that day, I was literally flying, it's kind of a long story, but flying back on a small private plane.
And the guy who did it reached over to grab me again while we're flying.
And we came this close to a bridge.
That's all I remember seeing in the windshield.
And we just missed it by this much being just a crash, kind of like a John John history story.
When I got out of the plane, my dad said, so how was your afternoon?
She said, how was your afternoon?
I was like, it was fine.
I closed my door and I never thought about that memory since until that day when I lost all way more weight than I had ever lost.
And it dawned on me how badly I'd been hurt.
And then it dawned on me like, oh, you didn't want to be seen all these years.
You don't own a bikini because it's too painful.
I never even in my wildest imagination realized that's why I was running my life the way I was.
That's why I was kind of angry at men on some weird level.
That's why I did a lot of the things and it all came to fruition.
