I will say one thing that has been interesting in my life is that from such a young age, I had so many people's opinions about me that I was seeing and reading and hearing.

And I think that that's obviously can be really hard, but also has really helped me because from a young age, I realized you just simply cannot please people anymore.

And it doesn't matter how awesome of a job you did or how good of a moment you had or how bad or whatever it was.

Like people are going to be critical and you're never going to please all the people all the time.

And I have found that to be freeing, though.

And I feel like at this stage, a lot of people say this to me, like, you really don't care what people think because you'll just show up and you'll wear whatever you'll.

You seem free in that.

And it's not that I don't.

I mean, I, of course, have had those moments and we have those things rise up in our flesh and all of that.

It's just that I have simply come to the understanding that literally no matter what I do.

there will be people who will hate me and who will speak negative and who are going to not like the way that I came off or whatever I said or the way that I talk or the way that I look at some, whatever it is.

I've been so picked apart that I've almost just been like, if I live there, I would never show up anywhere.

It would crush me, you know?

And so it's like making that decision to just go,

you know what, it's not about that, Lord, it's about you.

And I fear you more than I fear man.

And I'm okay to step in the face in front of people and be laughed at and be ridiculed and be hated if it brings you glory, God.

And if there are people who will be impacted, Lord.

And so that was like a very, very hard thing to walk through.

At a young age, but I think it's helped me a lot at this stage.
