And no matter how much work that I did, when the work would stop, I'd be faced with these things happen to you. What do you feel about it? Who are you? What are you?

Yeah, same for you. What I didn't know, because recently I've been doing all these tests. When I went to this session, they were like, OK, let's test for you for autism, because there are certain things that you are doing that are on the spectrum. So we went through all of these tests.

So for you to say that you were in a moment of chaos is where you thrived, it's what happened to the little boy and what he needed to be okay or to feel like he was loved. And I've run into people like that. And it's one of the saddest things that I've seen because the more I try and say, hey, this is what peace feels like. There's all of this resistance to it because it's scary.

I do believe that all things work together for your good, even though if they're awful and horrible, I have to believe that. Which put me in a wonderful position in running the studio, because when you have people coming to you with their dreams in their hands and they need a job or want to be on a show, if I had been another person, then maybe I would have been doing things that were horrible.

Yeah. And that happens. I had a friend who had been sexually abused and he had hundreds of partners. Yeah. Well, at the same time, he was abandoned by his mother.
