  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Hey everyone, it's Justin here, Voices for Voices.
• 0:06
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Thank you so much for joining us today on this episode of the Voices for Voices TV show and podcast.
• 0:16
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: As always, we're grateful to have you with us wherever you are across the big expanse of this planet Earth.
• 0:26
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Right now, Lily again are grateful to be theming this show all across the world, over a hundred countries, a thousand cities, including Antarctica, Greenland, and all points in between.
• 0:48
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: It's really a humbling feeling, and we don't um we don't take this for granted what we have here, and we're just honored to have you spend even a few seconds with us.
• 1:08
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We do have an expansive catalog of uh of guests and topics.
• 1:15
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're over uh over 390 episodes, I believe, uh, in our catalog.
• 1:26
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We've been dropping, well, we had a couple days where we were just heavy, very intensive filming.
• 1:34
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Uh, and then we had that followed up by a couple days of intensive editing and uh getting the shows ready for you.
• 1:47
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Uh, and and so we uh try to manage our time as best as possible.
• 1:53
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We try to get the best guess that we can for you, for us as human beings, to be able to hear and listen and watch a story unfold.
• 2:13
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And it's uh it's really it's hard to put it into words, uh, because a lot of these stories that we're we're unearthing are are very tough to to hear.
• 2:31
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But I think there's the but uh but there really is no but they're just tough to hear.
• 2:47
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: These are human beings that have gone through some of the hardest times any individual can imagine, and when we bring those guests to you, we do it for a couple of reasons.
• 3:05
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: One is to allow those individuals to share their voice, right?
• 3:09
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Voices for voices, uh, whether it's their voice or somebody that that they know's voice.
• 3:17
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I got a little tickle on my nose here.
• 3:19
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So uh and then for the at least one individual who's watching and listening over the course of time, they may relate to what the what the guests are sharing and talking about and may help them change their perspective to think, okay, I can get through this.
• 3:49
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I can I can just keep trying.
• 3:53
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's what we've done here at the show and the organization.
• 3:57
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We just keep trying.
• 4:00
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We have roadblocks, not roadblocks, we have we have all kinds of barriers.
• 4:09
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Seems like every every day there's a new barrier that comes up that tries to get in the middle of our show, helping people, and not gonna lie, it's hard.
• 4:29
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Very hard, it's hard to continue thinking we are making a difference when we are, but maybe you've felt uh a time or two or more where it seems no matter what you do, how you do it, how many times you do it, how many ways you do it, you check all the boxes, and it doesn't seem like it's enough.
• 5:11
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And so that happens to us, too.
• 5:17
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And so we want to share that you're not alone, you know.
• 5:25
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Stigma city is always gonna be there.
• 5:30
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We can try our best for ourselves and yourself and others, and we're still gonna try to smash that stigma of mental illness that's tied to mental health.
• 5:47
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's not gonna isn't gonna stop us.
• 5:50
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So we're gonna continue on.
• 5:56
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're gonna continue to go through whatever obstacles, whatever hurdles that we need to go through.
• 6:08
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We know not everybody is gonna be on board.
• 6:13
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm gonna say it's a waste of time.
• 6:17
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Why are you doing this?
• 6:21
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Find something better to do.
• 6:24
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And so we know we're gonna have that.
• 6:30
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We just it's just gonna be part of life.
• 6:36
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: For whatever reason.
• 6:41
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Not even gonna get into hypotheticals of why we can only do the best that we can do.
• 6:55
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: What we feel that we're called to do.
• 6:58
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Like, why are each one of us on earth right this moment?
• 7:06
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Why?
• 7:11
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: For a lot of us, we're we're not gonna know exactly why.
• 7:19
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Because in our world with God and Jesus Christ, we're just not gonna know.
• 7:29
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So we have to pick up on clues.
• 7:34
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And that's what we've been doing.
• 7:43
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So as we whether you believe in God, whether you don't, whether you pray, whether you don't, it doesn't matter.
• 7:55
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're all given clues of some sort.
• 8:02
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Some are easier to see and hear than others.
• 8:10
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Some of them are.
• 8:15
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And there's others that it's like, well, when am I gonna find this out?
• 8:26
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: When I'm when am I gonna be told what I'm supposed to be doing, what I'm really supposed to be doing on earth.
• 8:37
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And that's where I keep coming back.
• 8:48
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm no savior.
• 8:53
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm not perfect.
• 8:57
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: None of us are.
• 8:59
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And share those.
• 9:24
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And so that's what we do.
• 9:26
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And this is one of these episodes where it's just kind of just speaking from the heart.
• 9:37
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And there are so many days that are so hard.
• 9:46
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I mean so hard to question.
• 9:53
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Well, maybe I need to do a whole 180 and go in the opposite direction that I was going.
• 10:00
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But I can't let I can't let people down.
• 10:09
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Even if it's just one person that we've helped.
• 10:17
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I can't I can't just stop and turn away and and turn.
• 10:24
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So yeah, some people say, Oh, you love getting in front of the camera, and you love this aspect of it.
• 10:39
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But we have a lot of lot of individuals who listen.
• 10:50
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So they don't see me on camera.
• 10:53
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So what about those people?
• 10:55
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Oh that we're not talking about those, we're talking about you know, people to watch.
• 11:02
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Okay.
• 11:03
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I see we keep coming up with these excuses until we totally defeat a person.
• 11:19
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And the questioning again, like I mentioned, what am I doing?
• 11:27
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Is this what I'm meant to do?
• 11:31
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Is this not?
• 11:33
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Yeah, it's really incredible to hear and listen to humans.
• 11:51
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're all different, all different walks of life, we're all unique.
• 11:57
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Some ways we're similar.
• 11:59
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: It's amazing how many people will offer their two cents.
• 12:09
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And that's okay.
• 12:14
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're allowed to do that.
• 12:18
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We don't discourage that when it keeps coming, it's like, well, ah, you know, maybe you should go and do this other thing because well where's the money?
• 12:44
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Where's this or that?
• 12:46
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I say, well, where's the passion?
• 12:50
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Passion's right here.
• 12:52
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And so we we can't we can't get in.
• 13:07
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You know, it's it's a little bit like I'm not one to preach.
• 13:19
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Kind of like, you know, the devil, the demonic trying to pull us away from this ministry that we have.
• 13:35
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And it's my family's priest who started calling voices for voices of ministry, and I hadn't even thought about it that way.
• 13:50
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're ministering to people.
• 13:54
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So this is a way I can minister to you by sharing some things, some stuff.
• 14:08
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Friend Mark McAdams, Life Warrior United.
• 14:15
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're all going through, we've all gone through stuff.
• 14:20
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And we gotta we gotta just keep coming through each minute, each hour.
• 14:31
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Each day.
• 14:35
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And so listening to opinions, okay.
• 14:48
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We do that.
• 14:49
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But I'm not gonna be here telling somebody else when they're in something for passion and something they fully believe in.
• 15:07
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Oh, you need to this just a hobby.
• 15:14
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You know, this thing right here, this is just a hobby.
• 15:18
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: To come in and say or do that, to tell somebody, or to not let or not even listen to them, ask a question, and then get half a sentence in, and then say, I don't I don't I don't get it, I don't understand.
• 15:51
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: It says what we're talking about.
• 15:54
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Well, you asked me a question, so I'm gonna answer it.
• 15:59
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: If you don't want me to answer it, don't ask me the question.
• 16:02
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So I get it.
• 16:11
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I mean, I'm a human being.
• 16:13
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: There's times where I get jealous and envious of people.
• 16:17
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I think we all do at different times.
• 16:20
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We try not to, we try not to judge, try not to say, oh, look at that person, look what they're doing, and let's go, let's go have these uh you know, gossip conversations or now gossip texts or gossip emails or messenger exchanges.
• 16:44
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I used to be one of those people.
• 16:51
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I used to be one of those people to judge my way or the highway.
• 17:04
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: What's going on right now may seem like it's my way or the highway, but it it's in fact the very opposite.
• 17:20
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: See, it's up to you whether you want to believe in God or your God higher power.
• 17:31
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's your choice.
• 17:33
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But don't come and telling me when I'm being given signals that this is where I'm supposed to be.
• 17:48
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: This is supposed to be where what I'm supposed to be doing.
• 17:54
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Don't come and tell me that you know best.
• 18:01
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Because I'm not going to come and tell you.
• 18:08
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You hear me talk on every show, and for a last big while, we talk about how we're praying for everybody, whether they are friends, followers, listeners, subscribers, donors, or whether they're enemies of ours.
• 18:35
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Because we're all human beings.
• 18:39
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And so I do every night.
• 18:44
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's one of the prayers.
• 18:46
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Pray for myself and the whole world.
• 18:50
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Might sound simplistic, but I don't say I pray for me and only these other people.
• 19:02
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I don't do that.
• 19:04
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Pray for the whole world.
• 19:06
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That includes enemies.
• 19:09
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: People don't like me, people don't like what we're doing, don't like stories we've done, don't like people shedding light where there's darkness.
• 19:21
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So I'll say it again.
• 19:30
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And this irks people, I don't know why.
• 19:37
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Number one, you can change a channel.
• 19:41
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You don't even have to listen to me.
• 19:42
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You don't you don't have to watch us.
• 19:45
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You don't.
• 19:48
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So if you're watching and listening, and this stuff does get under your skin for whatever reason, I don't know how it would or why.
• 19:59
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And you don't want to change a channel, you just want to listen and then nasty comments in, especially when we're doing a TikTok live.
• 20:12
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm not gonna sit around and watch or listen to somebody if I don't if I don't agree with it, I just turn it off.
• 20:29
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I change a channel, change a song, change a movie, whatever, whatever the thing is that I'm doing, if it bothers me that much, I just stop it.
• 20:43
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Because why would I waste my my precious energy?
• 20:51
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Just like why would you waste your precious energy in the short amount of time we have all have on earth doing something, listening to something that we don't agree with, or whatever the reason is.
• 21:07
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: It's taken me a good long while to figure that out, but I've figured it out.
• 21:15
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You can turn the channel just like I can.
• 21:20
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You can just turn the off switch, you can just close down whatever app you're watching and listening to us on.
• 21:30
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So this is episode four all the people out in the world again.
• 21:45
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Whether you like us, love us, hate us, or our enemy.
• 21:52
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: This is the message.
• 21:58
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: It's you feel the calling, and you either pray or do your thing, how you come in tune with yourself.
• 22:12
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And if this is something that keeps coming back and keeps coming back.
• 22:27
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Like the studio and the program and those things.
• 22:34
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: They continue to work.
• 22:37
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's a small sign.
• 22:42
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So you get these little small signs.
• 22:50
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Some of you may or may not know.
• 22:54
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're at the end of well, you may know where we're at in the calendar.
• 23:02
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So we're we're getting close to the end of calendar year 2025.
• 23:07
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We've gone through some real really hard things.
• 23:16
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I've gone through a lot of hard things in my life as well as I'm sure you've gone through a lot of a lot of hard things in your your life.
• 23:26
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm not here downplaying anybody saying that I'm the only person or our organization is the only organization.
• 23:35
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm not saying that.
• 23:36
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm just sharing examples.
• 23:40
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So this year we've had something that we had for over a year.
• 23:49
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Going on two years.
• 23:52
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: The table, that's a shot from TV studio.
• 24:12
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And because we talk about real real issues, real real things.
• 24:26
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That that whole studio thing was just ripped away from us as an organization.
• 24:37
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Just yanked.
• 24:46
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's okay.
• 24:50
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Continue going.
• 24:54
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Say that Miley Sarah song, We Can't Stop, We Won't Stop.
• 25:02
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I don't believe in every everything that she does, and I'm just giving a little bit of uh a visual symbolism.
• 25:21
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: The voices for voices can't stop.
• 25:29
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And we won't stop.
• 25:30
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: In fact, bull in the studio, among some other things.
• 25:40
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Some are public, some aren't.
• 25:44
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Doesn't really matter.
• 25:47
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But that's when you really find out is this what we're here for?
• 25:58
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Give you an example.
• 26:04
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We had a goal of hitting a total of 300 episodes total by the end of calendar year 2025.
• 26:13
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Well, as you're watching or listening to this show, this episode, and you look at that number, or you hear that number, or someone does sign language with that number, if they're signing the show, that number is way, way, way, way over the number 300.
• 26:47
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: In fact, we're way, way, way, way, way, way closer to episode 400.
• 26:59
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So it might not seem like a big thing to you, and that's okay.
• 27:04
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But after some of the things, again, that I mentioned, one of the things is a studio just yanked, talking about too many, you know, hot topics, and you know, we shouldn't be doing that, and whatever other reasons.
• 27:22
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So that being one reason, and and the others that could have stopped us.
• 27:30
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That could have said, you know what, yep.
• 27:33
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Yep, we're done.
• 27:38
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're gonna call it quits.
• 27:40
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's the easy thing to do.
• 27:46
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That is the absolute easy thing to do.
• 27:50
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Is to follow the herd of sheep.
• 27:58
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Oh, this must just be the way things go.
• 28:03
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But not for me.
• 28:12
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Not for voices for voices.
• 28:16
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We do this for you.
• 28:20
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Because I could have I I could have stopped at show one and been like, alright, feel much, you know, I feel good.
• 28:32
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I feel I was able to get some things off my chest and uh share and I can help some people.
• 28:38
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But I I wouldn't be here and we wouldn't be here.
• 28:44
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Even fewer get to episode 200, even fewer get to episode 300, and you're damn right, even fewer get to episode 400.
• 29:01
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And guess what?
• 29:03
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: This little itty bitty organization that nobody watches, nobody listens to is gonna hit and surpass episode 400.
• 29:21
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So we're gonna be at least a hundred episodes over top of what our goal was at the beginning of the year.
• 29:33
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We were only gonna hit, we were aiming for 300.
• 29:39
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And so I wouldn't be sitting here episode 300, 391, whichever episode.
• 29:53
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Because we we schedule things in a certain manner.
• 29:59
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We wouldn't do it.
• 30:05
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: The easy thing was just like I said, would have been just a stop.
• 30:09
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Pack it in.
• 30:11
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Just a hobby.
• 30:13
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Doesn't matter.
• 30:18
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Everybody looks at the analytics and says, Oh, you're not reaching anybody, you're not okay.
• 30:25
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm gonna bring up this song one more time.
• 30:32
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm not endorsing the artists, I'm just merely using it for another symbolism example.
• 30:44
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: So yeah, why does Voices for Voices continue?
• 30:52
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Why does the show continue?
• 30:53
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Why do we do TikTok lives?
• 30:55
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Why do we have books?
• 30:57
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Why are we continuing to have even more media options that are coming in 2026?
• 31:05
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Heard the song probably tens of times over my life.
• 31:15
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Eminem and Rihanna songs called Monsters.
• 31:21
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And again, I'm not endorsing either one of these artists or their behaviors or anything, purely talking about the words to the song, and only a certain subsection of words.
• 31:41
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And that is when Em says talks about if he can help his work, his work, his music, if they can be relatable to one out of 100 million kids.
• 32:01
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And over the course of your lifetime and beyond, and you know, you you have these huge lofty goals, and that but what I always do is bring it down to one that one person, that one individual, that one human being.
• 32:37
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: It was able to step off of that ledge, that proverbial ledge.
• 32:45
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Picked up a basketball, picked up, you name it, and they're now just a teeny bit more confident in themselves, and so it's for that one person.
• 33:22
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Yes, we have big goals, and yes, we're gonna continue going after them.
• 33:28
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's that's the truth.
• 33:34
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're not gonna stop.
• 33:37
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We can't stop, we won't stop.
• 33:40
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're gonna continue sharing, we're gonna continue bringing guests on.
• 33:45
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Some are gonna talk about controversial topics, some aren't.
• 33:51
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But for that one person, over 390 episodes.
• 34:04
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: At least that one person that we were able to help, and not even just me.
• 34:12
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I'm talking about our guests.
• 34:14
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Because people relate usually to the guests more than the host, and that's fine.
• 34:21
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's fine with me.
• 34:22
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I I don't care how they relate, I don't care how you relate.
• 34:28
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: It's just I just care that you relate at some level.
• 34:35
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Not gonna relate on every single episode in our portfolio, and I get that.
• 34:40
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's why we offer variety, and so for that one person that Eminem talks about if he can help one person over a hundred million kids, then that's it's worth it.
• 35:08
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's one less person that has to go through as much suffering as they've had to go through.
• 35:19
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And even if it's only a little bit of less suffering, then that's a little bit more that that individual can use to do something that they want to do.
• 35:32
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Help give them the confidence, whatever that thing is.
• 35:39
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We all have things that we we like to do, and so that's why we're in the spot we're in.
• 35:56
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's why the haters are there, they're always gonna be there, no matter what.
• 36:03
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Doesn't matter how popular somebody or their show or anything is, there's always gonna be somebody that doesn't like it.
• 36:12
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's just the way life is.
• 36:15
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: We're given the free will to like and not like, and we just like to say, if you don't agree, then just kindly turn to channel.
• 36:32
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: If you if you don't agree with a guest or a topic we're talking about.
• 36:49
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And then the same on the other side.
• 36:55
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Every tool to be able to do so.
• 37:06
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And any and every platform that they're able to every year we're all presented with different challenges, different obstacles.
• 37:30
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You have to be the one to decide what what you'd like to do.
• 37:45
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You have to be that person.
• 37:52
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: You can be given information, you can ask for feedback.
• 37:58
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: At the end of the day, we either do something or we don't.
• 38:05
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And that ultimately comes down to us.
• 38:10
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Life would be so much easier if I just didn't do the show, didn't have the organization.
• 38:21
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: It would just be so much easier because then that'd be I wouldn't have to do this.
• 38:28
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: But that's not what I'm called to do right now.
• 38:36
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: I don't always have the best words.
• 38:44
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: Might sound like I'm mumbling or stuttering, and that's fine.
• 38:49
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: That's just who I am.
• 38:51
  Justin Alan Hayes, Voices for Voices: And for right now, this is what I'm what I'm meant to do.
