Why am I not loved?

What's going on?

Why me?

Why does this happen?

And then as we start to get older and we start to make sense of things, the mind looks for evidence to support its belief systems.

And then if you are in middle school and a girl that you like turns her back on you, immediately those sensations and those feelings are triggered.

And then you're like, what am I not good enough?

And then you just compound this belief of you're not good enough.

And then the mind looks for evidence to support that belief system getting older.

And so that was like a big battle for me, dude.

Like I still struggle sometimes with feeling not good enough.

i felt that way too and yeah it's crazy how much you pick up as a kid because i i have an avoidant personality like when you take that test and um i realized it was because my parents would fight a lot and my dad would retreat and he wouldn't fight he would just retreat back to his room so i guess i picked that up as a kid so for sure but in business like i avoid conflict it's not good you can't grow so our mutual friend jeremy's been helping me tackle stuff more heads on you know

Yeah, he's an incredible friend.

And shout out to Jeremy for supporting me to get me on the show.

And thank you for allowing me here to share a message of hope because I think that's like the biggest life lesson I've learned.

Shout out to today's sponsor, Quince.

As the weather cools, I'm swapping in the pieces that actually gets the job done, that are warm, durable, and built to last.

Quince delivers every time with wardrobe staples that'll carry you through the season.

They have fall staples that you'll actually want to wear, like the 100% Mongolian cashmere for just $60.

They also got classic fit denim and real leather and wool outerwear that looks sharp and holds up.
