And when I was in third grade, I was perpetually getting kicked out of class and sent to the principal's office.

And

By fifth grade, I was being sent home for several days at a time.

When I was in eighth grade, I was in a Jewish day school and everybody else in my grade was applying to these Jewish private high schools.

And it wasn't supposed to be a complicated application process.

They were just basically checking to make sure everything.

There were no children that were too difficult, but pretty much it was just assumed that everybody got in where they applied.

And I remember I applied to three places and didn't get in anywhere.

And I went home when I got the last rejection letter in the mail.

And I just remember I was in my bathroom and I cried until the sun came out in the morning.

I just didn't know why I couldn't get accepted anywhere.

Hmm.

See, when you meditate before you go on a podcast and wide open, you have your coffee, you meditate for, you know, get a good 20 minute TM session.

And I'm just like wide open over here with you.

But it brings me back to that feeling of,

just not really being sure why I couldn't hack it in the world.

Everybody else just easily, it just was kind of a formality to apply.

And everybody else easily got accepted.

And I didn't get accepted anywhere.

My parents didn't know what they were going to do with me.
