  Speaker 1: It's hard.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: It's hard as hell. There's no easy answer to this.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: There's no like, Okay, well, every morning at six o'clock,
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: you know, wake up and meditate for ten minutes and
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: tell yourself you're beautiful and then go like, it's not.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: It doesn't work like that.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: It's a constant battle, and you're gonna have moments of
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: complete and total defeat where it's just like what am
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: I doing? Like why do I keep trying to do this? Look,
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: don't look at my story. Don't look at someone else's story.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: What's the story you want? Everyone's different, you know, because
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: everyone has a different story, and I think we get
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: locked into like.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: The horrific stories. It's like really easy to.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: Say, oh wow, that's such a triumphant moment that he
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: came out of that, you know, and whatever. But there
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: are a lot of kids who are struggling in freaking
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: La Jolla, California, or Beverly Hills, California or whatever zip
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: code that is doing really well on this planet. There's
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: still struggling with self worth, They're still struggling with identity.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: So just because it may not be that they come
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: from a really bad background, still are having issues with
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: reality and what is something that they can hold on
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: to and what is something they can anchor to. And
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: so the first step is what do you want? And
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: that question becomes like a rabbit hole for figuring out
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: and pulling and dissecting and coming through. And then when
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: we finally get there, then we see certain things in
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: their lives that have given them that want or that
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: desire or that curiosity. And then you just start working
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: through that and the more layers of success that they
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: can create as stronger their house becomes right, more bricks.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: You are this person, you are this individual, and people
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: may not like that, but this is who you are,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: and go out and be you. It has nothing to
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: do with what you do externally or what people say.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: It's how you view yourself and what you do inside.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: You know, put the victim to bed and wake the
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: hero up instead. And the next part of that is
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: you have to be a hero to yourself before you
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: can save the world.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: And so you have to have that moment of I
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: am who I am.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: I'm comfortable in who that is, and I'm going to
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: go out and use who I am in the world
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: in the best way possible. But I think that most
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: people they know what's holding them back at some level,
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: and they just don't want to be honest with it,
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: and they'll do a lot to bury it. And the
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: older you get, the more it gets buried. But I
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: think if you really look back on your life, you
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: can say, Okay, that's it, and I just don't want
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: to take ownership of that. And a lot of times
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: it's like I said, that shame, whether it happened to
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: you or you did it, you know, it's that shame
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: of just let go of shame.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Like if anything, we've proven.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: In this world, like we're a world of forgiveness, like
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: we will forgive people who are honest and vulnerable and real.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: But you've got to be that first in order for
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: us to you know, but you've got to do that
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: for yourself first.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: You got to forgive yourself failure.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: I think it's more of our egos that we don't
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: want to say like failure exists. It's like, no, failure
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: doesn't exist. It's a learning moment. Now you screwed up,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: you fail, Like, let's just own that, like there's nothing
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: wrong with that, and yes, you should learn from those failures.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: If there's something you've been holding and heal through it,
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: and then share it because guarantee there's somebody else who's
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: going through something similar and.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: You will be able to reach them.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: The simplicity of just knowing that you're not alone is
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: really not simple.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: It's massive because.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: In those dark moments, you are alone.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: For the most part, you.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Are physically alone, and so then it's not that hard
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: to take it from a physical to a mental state.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Understanding that you're in control.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: You control your destiny, You can create what you want
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: to create. You have gifts that nobody else on the
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: planet has. You have talent, you have everything. Everything you
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: need to become whatever you want is right here, right
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: And I don't care what the limitations are, physical, mental, spiritual,
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: I don't care. Everything is there for you.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: You're better than you think you are. All you need
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: is belief, the belief that you can can succeed, the
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: belief that you can learn, educate yourself. You have the power,
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: the power to push the part of you that sheltered

  Speaker 3: yourself from this progress, that didn't allow you to grow
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: and get stronger. You can be better. You can change

  Speaker 3: need to switch your mindset. You need to know that

  Speaker 4: In reality, you are your only limit. Are you looking
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: for success? Are you on that journey to success already?
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: Do you know what path you're even on? There's only
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: one way to know. If someone's holding you back. If

  Speaker 4: know when you're where you need to be because you've
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: been working for it. Limits shouldn't set you back. You
