I learned from my dad to make sure I take a rest, take rest in between work. If you don't take a break, I often say you eventually break. And with my mom, the brain wasn't meant to hold the trauma she experienced. My grandfather was lynched. Her first marriage was abusive. Then my brother gets murdered. So all of this she couldn't let go.

That's why the scriptures say, cast your cares upon God. We tend to hold them and grasp and hold and control it. And that's what wears us down, especially as men. We can't rest. We can't let go of the disappointments of the day. We're still trying to work when we should be resting. That's what tomorrow is for. Table those things, find rest, and then get up and hit it hard again.

But again, if your whole identity isn't working and performing, we can't sleep. Yeah. And I guess that's one of the greatest blessings of me knowing so many influential individuals. I get to see the side that people don't see. Yeah, of course. And I said, well, money isn't the answer. Being a celebrity isn't the answer. Being a professional athlete or fighter isn't the answer.

But being authentic in who you are. is the answer. For me, when I found my purpose in Christ, when I found my purpose in following the Most High, that really solidified me, I would say, in being a comprehensive man. Because again, you could be multifaceted, but without a purpose, you're just a busy person.

Man, if I could go to Spain, this would give me a break. You do it, now you still don't find peace. Yeah, you still have to live with you in Spain. The average guy can always have that dream or that vision. Like, you know, one day when I can do this or get this house or get this firm, that's when everything will be together. The millionaire has done everything and still is unhappy.

Exactly. And so I say, no matter where you go, there you will be. You can't escape yourself. And so I never was one to, I guess, adhere to escapism. Always tried to find my peace in where I'm at. Did you have a lot of escapism, though, before the last 10 years? Of course, I was as men were conditioned that way.

You won't have it. And so for me, it took for me to surrender my life to Yeshua or Jesus to really find that peace, to purge all of this pain that was in my heart. Because I didn't grow up in a church.

I didn't want to walk this path. You didn't grow up in a church at all? My mother, what I mean by grow up, meaning it wasn't. I was a part of the culture. Me and my mother made me go.
