And what you do is when you see the heart, I want you to then take a moment and literally congratulate yourself, like feel like, oh my God, I found it. Like whatever you believe in, God, the universe, like greater connection, you put that there for me and I found it. And I want you to feel this kind of wave of that's kind of cool.

I just saw a heart. And then that positive thing Remember how I told you the bouncer in your brain pays attention to what's important to you.

And we can all sit in this moment, Lewis, and look back and see how the dots of our life connect us here.

And when you start to have that kind of high five attitude, that there are signs, whether it's the little hearts that you're now seeing or it's your ability to catch guilt or people-pleasing or insecurity or the negative self-talk and be like, nope, not going down, not thinking about that, five, four, three, two, one.
