Plus my mom was a secretary.

My dad, they both worked, but they had lives and they stayed out of mine other than being good.

They set an expectation.

But they didn't have to.

What I think that actually did for me, and I think what you're talking about, like the success thing, is it didn't create these false or limiting beliefs because they had their own lives and they didn't try to live through me or set expectations in some way.

It allowed me to sort of blossom with good counsel of just being a good human being and good morals into the creative person that I became.

I wasn't delusional.

I wasn't like, oh, I'm going to be fucking Superman or I'm going to win the sweepstakes or whatever.

But I really had in my mind, I both knew and didn't know what it would take.

I didn't ever feel like I was hitting my head.

When you were just talking, we all apply things to ourselves.

And when you're thinking about it, it unlocked for me something.

I was going, that's really interesting.

I'm not a psychologist by any means.

I just studied the people that I have on the show.

So this is sort of secondhand observation without any formal training.

But I think that there's merit to it because I think about kind of how you listen to what I was just saying.

And you're thinking about your own life and your own upbringing.

My parents were very similar.

They didn't impose anything on me.
