Quotes:

[00:05:51] I had a really hard time accepting myself for who I am because this was completely new. I didn't know how to control it. It was just completely out of my control

[00:08:33] That helped me see that for the first time in my life that I don't have to wear a mask of perfectionism, In fact, it's better that I don't because then people get to see the real me, and I get to be comfortable with who I am

[00:10:28] And that's something we can all unify. It's because we're all not perfect human beings and we're all trying our best, and that's some that's just a unifying thing to have across humanity
