And to have somebody like her always encouraging me and somebody like Jay, always giving me those words of inspiration, words of encouragement, those keep going, keep pushing that advice from time to time. Like, I feel like I must be doing something right, because the people that I would have been looked, the only people that I would have been asking in the first place for their advice is actually voluntarily giving it to me and voluntarily, you know, hyping me up. So I feel real good about that.”
