    • Standout Quotes:

    • "When something devastating happens, it can just bring up all the old stuff and go, ‘Hey, see? Still hurts remember?'" -Kyle Hollingsworth [14:40]
  • "I went through everything, like ‘Oh my God, I'm never going to kiss my husband the same way. I'm never going to be sexual in the same way. I'm never going to be able to sing the same way. Everybody's going to be looking at my mouth, like feeling sorry for me. I don't want that.' All these things. Just kind of brought it all up for me to look at and face, and I had a decision. I could either let it kill me or I could find a way to make friends with the truth." -Kyle Hollingsworth [17:27]
  • "I got a new word recently, and it's not I don't understand. I overstand." -Kyle Hollingsworth [24:32]
