- 4:11that
- 4:11weren't
- 4:11so
- 4:11pleasant.
- 4:12And
- 4:13I
- 4:13think
- 4:14a
- 4:14big
- 4:14part

- 4:15is
- 4:15that
- 4:16growing
- 4:16up
- 4:17in
- 4:17families
- 4:17of
- 4:17dysfunction
- 4:18or
- 4:18addiction
- 4:19or
- 4:19any
- 4:19type
- 4:19of
- 4:19diet
- 4:20dysfunction,
- 4:20as
- 4:20you
- 4:20just
- 4:20mentioned,
- 4:22we,
- 4:22we
- 4:23as
- 4:23the
- 4:23person
- 4:23who's
- 4:24in
- 4:24that
- 4:24system
- 4:25don't
- 4:25really

- 4:26a
- 4:26great
- 4:26opportunity
- 4:27to
- 4:27create
- 4:27a
- 4:28sense
- 4:28of
- 4:28self.
- 4:29So
- 4:30we
- 4:30become
- 4:31other
- 4:31focused.
- 4:32Meaning
- 4:33I'm
- 4:33trying
- 4:33to
- 4:34figure
- 4:34them
- 4:34out,
- 4:34I'm
- 4:35trying
- 4:35to
- 4:35fix
- 4:35them.
- 4:36Because
- 4:36if
- 4:36I
- 4:37fix
- 4:37them
- 4:37or
- 4:38fix
- 4:38what's
- 4:38happening
- 4:39in
- 4:39the
- 4:39environment,
- 4:40then
- 4:40I
- 4:40can
- 4:40be
- 4:41safe.
- 4:41Right.
- 4:42And
- 4:42from
- 4:43an
- 4:43early
- 4:44year,
- 4:44like
- 4:44early
- 4:45years

- 4:46other
- 4:46focused,
- 4:48there's
- 4:48not,
- 4:49there's
- 4:49not
- 4:50a
- 4:50safety
- 4:51to
- 4:51turn
- 4:51that
- 4:51attention
- 4:52inward
- 4:53because
- 4:53our
- 4:54circumstances
- 4:55don't
- 4:55feel
- 4:55safe
- 4:56and
- 4:56we're

- 5:10So
- 5:11our
- 5:11energy,
- 5:12our
- 5:12survival
- 5:12energy
- 5:13is
- 5:13literally
