Hey.

Great.

I'm great.

And then I'd go in my room at night and just sob and cry myself to sleep and feel –

like I didn't have it altogether and that I was a fake.

Like the world thought I did and that's when I started journaling and writing this down to say I knew I needed people to know that I wasn't okay because I had a feeling there are other people that weren't okay too and that we're going to overcome this.

And I knew in my heart I was still going to overcome it.

I mean, I wasn't at a point where I was like, I'm not, I'm giving up.

But I was at a point where I was just like, yeah, this is, this is, and I didn't feel like myself.

In 2020.

And I had to change the way I was doing things.

In 2020.

No.

I felt like a shadow of myself at that point.

And money does not make you happy.

And that success is different for everybody.

And I think that's a really important thing to remember.

So I realized that success for me was just having more time, more quiet time, more time with the people that I love.

And in 2020, I think with my father being ill, going through another divorce in my life, that separation of another failure, COVID, the pandemic hitting the world and my business, there was just so many things out of my control that I felt out of control in a way.

But I had to keep everybody thinking I was in control, which is the worst.
