We didn't know the problem was this big, but if there's anything we can do, let us know.

And that's the hope, right?

The hope is that if we give the space for them to be understood and to know that they can play a role in making things better, that will take it on every single day.

I think the journey I've made would not have happened without people around me.

I think at four until 30, I believed I had to do it on my own.

Like you hear all these stories about people who say, you know, I'm rags to riches or I made it on my own or I'm, you know, self-made.

And I think sometimes we don't give credit to those who really gave us this opportunity.

And it's every single one of those people who has been there for me throughout my life that has meant that I can be here today having this conversation.

The simple things, I think.

Now I only look forward to, like, sitting on the couch with my girlfriend and our three dogs and just scrolling through funny stuff on Instagram.

Like, I don't know if you ever see jump scare videos on Instagram, but they send me for days.

And she will just be sitting there.

Sometimes she walks in the room and I'm crying on the couch.

She's like, what's wrong?

And I'm like, nothing, watch this.

So it's those simple little things, just time with good people and dogs and being able to laugh.

Thank you so much.

I really love being here.

Thanks, Sarah.
