Just little things to kind of build that belief muscle of, oh, wow, I saw that feather.

Okay, maybe this works.

And then, oh, you know, money can come to me in expected and unexpected ways.

And then I'm walking my dog and there's a $20 bill on the railroad tracks outside of my apartment.

I'm like...

Whoa, that's crazy because I just wrote that down.

So just little things like that were kind of the beginning steps for me to kind of show me, OK, maybe maybe this does work.

And then that allowed me to grow into bigger things.

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

Yeah.

Is that surprising to you?

100%.

I didn't know what a victim mentality was at the time, but that was absolutely the mindset that I had.

Absolutely.

The way that I grew up and just, yeah, I mean, my own illnesses and then also, you know, close family members growing up, like getting sick and becoming disabled from a young age, like very young.

I was just a kid.

And so just seeing that around me and then that also being my own personal experience, I was diagnosed with like I had clinical depression.

At one point, I didn't even want to live.

And so anxiety, I mean, I was diagnosed with ADHD.
