You know, you don't have to bring it to me.

Go to one of the friends.

Go to your aunties.

Go to someone that holds space for you.

And I love that both about you, that you've both had therapy over the years when you've needed it.

You both have loved it.

You're like, I would like to go each week.

I'm like, it's better.

No, I love that you both have seen the value in speaking, processing, finding some places.

Because I know there's times where you haven't come to me about things.

And part of me is like, oh, but I'm like, actually, no, if you're going somewhere, it doesn't matter.

I want you to be heard and listened to in a way that feels right for you.

And that's, I think that's really healthy to have that balance.

There was never any judgment around that either, that there were times where, you know, there's some things you just don't want to talk to your parents about and that's okay.

And, you know, I'm glad that I could be that for Tali as well.

Not that I'm that much older than you, but if there was something going on, you can come talk to me.

I've had conversations with you guys where you're like, how's Tali?

What's going on?

I'm like, she spoke with me.

It's okay.
