Key Quotes:

"I am a full advocate that people can reach a place of full recovery and that full recovery is for everybody, and it's not a maybe or possible. It's like a yeah." (00:09:31)

"The only way to build resilience is to take action. And so really, if if I'm looking at this in terms of a visual, the the thing that connects all of those things is action taking." (00:45:58)

"It doesn't matter whether something is true or not. Because you can be thinking a thought that is true, that is really, really unhelpful for you to to continue thinking of." (00:49:50)
