It's really sketchy.

Can you come get us?

That's what we wanted.

Yeah.

And that was a huge thing that I'm so grateful for growing up was that we had that, but that we could offer that to our friends.

Our house was always safe for anyone to rock up.

However you rock up.

whatever was going on for you i remember there were times you guys picked up my friends from parties that i wasn't even at um but it was this your it was always this before the lesson before the talk about it it was the safety and that was all that it was that no matter what state you're in whatever's happening whatever's going down first and foremost you and dad want us to be safe and to make sure we're okay so even if there were times where we'd push the boat out or things would happen it was always knowing in the back of my head that if something was to go down i can call you no questions asked

And I'm so grateful for that because I could offer that to friends as well.

And it was, you know, friends who were going through hard times or were having stuff go down at home.

I could always offer that safe place to, you know, be how you need to be.

And I think that's been such an amazing thing that I'm so grateful to carry with me now.

That I think is also what you were saying earlier is when we're out at parties or at social situations and we see someone who's by themselves and they look a little bit distressed, I'm always going to go over and make sure that they're okay.

We were speaking about this yesterday saying we're both like the mother in that situation.

And it baffles us how people don't do that.

Yeah.

But I think that's just been always, you know, instilling this first and foremost, it's safety for your body, for your mind.

And I think that's why also, too, we tried to just have no topic that we couldn't talk about.

We've had heated discussions and things have been really tricky, but we wanted to go, let's talk about all the things.

Let's talk about alcohol.
