And I mean, I've also found that a lot of people have that book title too, but yeah, at least on Amazon, it seems like it, but did you consider, and I'm asking these questions.
Not really. Um, to be completely frank with you, I didn't even look at what the other titles were. I was just like, this sounds good. This is kind of the theme and went with it. Are you self publishing?

Yeah. Um, Honestly, I mean, the, the book started, I mean, when I really started writing it at some point, um, I decided to keep a journal for my kids and that's kind of like what this, and I'll get into why it's like what the process is, but it began as a journal for my kids.

And then as I kind of progressed professionally, like it became almost like, well, Hey, you know, I've kind of, you know, I've been an alcoholic, I've got the CSA stuff. I've been through some trauma and service. Like, why don't I turn this instead into a memoir? And then I can kind of like hope somebody that will, you know, read it can get something out of it. When did you start journaling?

Probably specifically to my kids would have been like 2018. I initially started journaling kind of like in therapy around like 2015, 2016.

The initial attempt was all therapeutic. Do you find that it helped? I think it does. I think it did for me because in a way you can kind of like put all your feelings out on the page, disassociate, come back and reread it. And there's something about that process that you can kind of like separate from those emotions a little bit, I think.

Um, I'm not entirely sure. I mean, I think it is kind of subjective, like you said, um, for me, particularly like when I was writing the book, I'd go back and look because at first, you know, I was like, Oh, I should maybe include some of these journal entries or whatever. And then, like, sometimes it's just interesting to go back and look at, like, what my thought process was over the years.
