75
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,800

00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: It really like honestly took the breath out of me.

78
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 2: Like it was the song I would blast when I

79
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 2: was in the intensive care, you know, of the psych word,

80
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 2: Like it was the thing that I really held on too.

81
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: And to be like even to be in New York

82
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 2: in September, which is suicide prevention months, and for me

83
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 2: to be speaking at this event while she's there releasing

84
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 2: a new album, like, it just felt like worlds collided

85
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: in the most crazy way. And Little Jazz would have

86
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 2: never believed that that would even be possible. So yeah, wow,

87
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 2: I still can't really comprehend it.

88
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I behave It would have been a special

89
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 3: moment for Rachel too, I imagine for her to know

90
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: that her music had such an effect.

91
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 2: Yes, she brought her eyes out as well. We ended

92
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 2: up seeing the whole day together and she cried multiple

93
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 2: times and just realized the impact that she had made

94
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 2: because I guess you don't really see it a lot,

95
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 2: right like in person. You hear it so much online,

96
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 2: but for her to actually see someone who is alive

97
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 2: because of the music she created was pretty special.

98
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: So what a great what a great story. Yes, well

99
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 3: let's be abid, let you go, You've got some writing
