We live in such a chaotic world and there's just this buzz of energy going on.

I mean, I live in New York City and you can hear, you know, sirens constantly.

So to be able to drop into yourself is it's the reason I know I'm here and the reason that I've been able to build and blossom in the way that I have.

And I think like the more that I've gotten to know about you and your story and

I feel that is like the one thing in people that they struggle with the most.

They like battle with is finding this like inner peace within themselves.

And I, you know, I'd love to know where the seed of this all really came from for you.

I love your love for your mother.

It's so real.

And as a mother myself, I'm like, that is... I think when people are like, what is your greatest wish in life?

It's to have my children talk about me the way you talk about your mother and your parents.

It's just...

You know, I think when you look at just like what's the point of it all, you know?

Yeah.

And to have the people that we're literally bringing into this world to feel that, because I didn't feel that.

I hope and I pray that everyone feels what you felt.

And I know that's why I feel...

so much passion about the way that I parent because I want to break a cycle.

I have broken a cycle.

And in your home, was your mom a meditator?
