And 223 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 2: so the thing I was scared of most was going 224 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 2: to meet my biological dad because he left. He just left, 225 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 2: like straight up, nothing was wrong, just decided to leave 226 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 2: my mom. My mom and my grandma raised me, and 227 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,719 Speaker 2: so my grandma adopted me for a long time. And 228 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 2: so I went and I set up a thing and 229 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 2: met him. Well, it was bizarre. It was the first 230 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 2: time I'd ever seen somebody that looked like me. Really, 231 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 2: I saw him again. I didn't know my dad. I 232 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 2: was very angry. I still have crazy resentment toward him 233 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 2: for leaving when I was five years old and leaving 234 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 2: my mom in that place because she got pregnant at 235 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 2: fifteen and that ain't an easy life. And so I 236 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 2: remember seeing him in the parking lot and it looked 237 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 2: like a because he was seventeen. Again, they were kids, 238 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 2: and a little bit of my brain has to go. 239 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 2: They were kids making kids decisions. And I saw him, dude, 240 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 2: it was weird, that's wild. I'd never when this probably 241 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 2: five or six years ago, oh well maybe seven at 242 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 2: this point, but around in that old forty five, I 243 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 2: was in my thirties. 244 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 245 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 2: I was scared to death and it was so bizarre. 246 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: And we went into this barbecue restaurant and I saw 247 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 2: him walking by, and I'm telling you, I don't know 248 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 2: if you look like your biological father, your mother, whomever. 249 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 2: I don't have really like a family, Like my mom 250 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 2: died drugs and alcohol. She died in your forties, and 251 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 2: so I never really had a family. So I never 252 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 2: was really accustomed to like having conversations with people that 253 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 2: I was related to. And I was sitting at a 254 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 2: table with him, going, this is the weirdest thing to 255 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 2: sit with somebody that was a parent. Aside from all 256 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 2: the resentment, all the anger, all everything that I had 257 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: sitting across from him, I was able to kind of 258 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 2: separate that way. This is the first time I've ever 259 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 2: done this in my life. Because my mom and I, 260 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 2: as much as she raised me and was in and out, 261 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 2: she was an addict her whole life, so there was 262 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 2: never a real, like true connection. But yeah, the whole 263 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 2: dad thing's weird. When you said that, it kind of 264 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 2: brought something up in me because I didn't meet my dad, 265 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 2: and I made myself go freaking meet him and it's weird. 266 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 2: We don't have a relationship now, but I don't hate 267 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 2: him as much, Yeah, because I've come to understand and 268 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 2: they'll talk now or No. He's in my sister's life 269 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 2: a little bit, and I respect that she's much younger, 270 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 2: so she didn't she wasn't a part of really being 271 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 2: alive when he left. Got so all with her has 272 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 2: been bonus. With me, there's a lot of he jumped 273 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: and he left me and my mom and that was 274 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 2: very difficult for all of us. 275 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean within reason, you know, It's just 276 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: that's that's crazy, man. 277 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 3: I didn't know that. 278 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean just when you said that, it reminded. 279 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 2: But I remember. And my whole point of that was 280 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 2: I wrote this whole book and it was all really 281 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 2: pragmatic ways to success, and I thought, I am such 282 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 2: a hypocrite because I've listed all these things that I 283 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 2: hope people take from me and my life and my journey, 284 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 2: and I hope they, you know, extract through my failures 285 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 2: and a couple of successes.

I knew a 503 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,120 Speaker 1: friend that I stayed with in Dallas, and we checked 504 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: out Austin. Wasn't a huge fan of it. It was 505 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 1: kind of in the middle of COVID, so it was 506 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: like super dirty and after all those riots and stuff, 507 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: So wasn't a huge fan of it. Then a couple 508 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 1: of weeks later, me and my mom flew down to 509 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: Nashville just to check it out to see if I 510 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 1: wanted to move, try to find an apartment kind of thing. 511 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: And for the first days, first two days we were here. 512 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 3: I remember looking at it. I was like, Mom, I 513 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 3: don't know.

We 517 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: checked out like Midtown and you know, you know all 518 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: that stuff, and it was it was a lot, and 519 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: you know, I come from a super small town. The 520 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: biggest building we got is the Poker Pietz that sells 521 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,640 Speaker 1: pizza and it's half pizza, half far you know, that's 522 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: the tallest building in my town.

We had lunch there 532 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: and immediately and no opportunities were like before moving in 533 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: or before visiting Nashville. My mom was like, we're not 534 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: just we're not going to try to, you know, force anything, 535 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: push anything, and like, if opportunities arise, then then we'll 536 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: know that's that. 537 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 3: This is the right decision. I was like, I'm completely 538 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 3: in that boat.
