I recently discovered in my life that there were certain, and it relates to what we're talking about, Ilana, because I grew up trying to earn the approval of my parents because it felt kind of conditional.
Like I had to perform for it.
And then I had to perform for my teachers and my coaches and my bosses and everybody else.
And I was realizing I was trying to please people
And I was actually working really hard to try to be things that I wasn't because I felt like I had to be what everybody wanted from me.
And until I went back and explored some of those things and said, oh, I didn't get this as a kid.
So that's why I felt the need to be something I wasn't.
I wish I had understood that 20 years ago, but I learned it five years ago.
And this past year I've grown more and I have more peace.
And I'm just glad, thankful to God that I understand that now.
So if I could have gone back and when I talk to young people, I'm like, listen, even my own kids,
I probably parented you in a way that left a few scars.
Go back and heal them now.
It's okay.
Well, for me, it's actually my whole life.
I kept thinking, if I just do more, I will finally feel like I'm enough.
Most of the CEOs I work with
are the same way.
And they will look back and they'll say, oh yeah, since I was kind of didn't get the conditional love I needed as a kid, and they used it as a superpower.
And that's why they go so hard.
