From Outcast to creative success!

[00:00:00]And so, I became the proverbial outcast, right? I think all of us, and you and I've talked about this, you know, that the outcast is kind of the backdrop for every creative, successful person I know, right? I don't know anybody that was like, right? Who who was like the the king of the prom, and then they went on and maybe a football player, you know, but but the guys that and girls that I meet in creative, we were all kind of outliers and outcast that just, you know, found our way on our own because we didn't fit in and we didn't think like everybody else. And I think that's a really positive thing. So, that actually, you know, helped contribute to my growth path, and it also gave me an urgency because the trauma of being in hospitals at 2 years old and going through all those experiences really put a sense of urgency in me that's abnormally high.
