I only went to homeroom, but she was amazing and she believed in me. But no, it had to be in 2012. I mentioned this before. My aunt, my best friend, two years my senior, died.

Hey, Shauna Lee, thank you so much for sharing this whole journey, and the overarching message absolutely is deeply received. And the idea of feeling of this perpetual gratitude, I mean, you probably carry that into each situation you're in, and it's contagious. So thank you for sort of letting us in on how you arrived to where you are today. And it's really, really nice to hear your voice here

You. Thank you so much just for saying I'm glad you're here. Because, honestly, in the abyss, I said it before, and I say it again, there was no light. There was no windows. There was no doors, and I had to face my demons. It had been a long time coming. It had been a long time coming where I needed to stop and face everything
