Speaker 1: know things like that you have to reconnect with and
4:49
Speaker 1: I know in Atlanta you have to reconnect. And so
4:52
Speaker 1: you know, I got you off for two breaks, and
4:54
Speaker 1: I asked you for two breaks because I like to
4:55
Speaker 1: slow everything down because people need to know that anybody
4:59
Speaker 1: who's successful as a journey. And also you're not finished
5:02
Speaker 1: with your client. Correct, yes, yes, say that's the truth.
5:08
Speaker 1: Now there's there five. When I was looking through your bio,
5:11
Speaker 1: there were there were four things that jumped out that
5:13
Speaker 1: I want to immediately talking one because I know I
5:15
Speaker 1: got some talking points of them to discuss with you.
5:18
Speaker 1: And the first one. I want to talk about you
5:20
Speaker 1: as a family man. Tell us a little bit about that.
5:25
Speaker 1: You know what, a lot of people see me with
5:27
Speaker 1: my family, and they said, man, this guys I always
5:29
Speaker 1: with his family, Like I don't run with a crew,
5:31
Speaker 1: a click, a gang or any of it those things.
5:34
Speaker 1: Even when I'm doing a red carpet, people that accompanied
5:36
Speaker 1: me is usually my wife, my three kids, and we
5:40
Speaker 1: may have an assistant kind of helping us out. But
5:42
Speaker 1: I wrote with my team and we call ourselves the
5:44
Speaker 1: more Squad Willi Junior. And you know, ultimately it's because
5:49
Speaker 1: I was adopted. I was adopted when I was pretty
5:51
Speaker 1: month old to the loving family. Really more Senior. That's
5:54
Speaker 1: why I pushed the world of company Willie More Junior.
5:57
Speaker 1: Because if I ever become paster man that really more
5:59
Speaker 1: Senior is, I'm gonna be a pretty good guy. And
6:01
Speaker 1: um and and Floor Moore is my mother. She's been
6:03
Speaker 1: study five the last studies five years. You know, black
6:06
Speaker 1: don't crack some faith, don't you know. It's just it's
6:10
Speaker 1: just it's just been an amazing honor to you know,
6:14
Speaker 1: have my own family, like my my family means so
6:16
Speaker 1: much to it just because those are my first blood
6:19
Speaker 1: of relatives. And most people have the opportunity to have
6:22
Speaker 1: a cousin or aucle or the frother of father that
6:25
Speaker 1: they can say, look like that person. But I never
6:27
Speaker 1: had that opportunity until I had my own parents and
6:30
Speaker 1: my own children. And for family is near and dear,
6:33
Speaker 1: for me, my my, My whole strategy and life is God,
6:37
Speaker 1: family business. And I pushed that everywhere I go, and
6:40
Speaker 1: you do. And I'm telling you, I'm such a fan
6:42
Speaker 1: of your show, um because of the fact that you
6:45
Speaker 1: know the cool thing about it. This gospel is an
6:48
Speaker 1: interesting genre because sometimes just the word gospel will turn
6:51
Speaker 1: people off. You know that ain't me. That ain't no.
6:53
Speaker 1: I'm not going in that direction, but you could. You
6:56
Speaker 1: could be a hip hop DJ, and I still would
6:59
Speaker 1: understand your philosopher. You can be an adult contemporary DJ.
7:02
Speaker 1: I will still understand and appreciate your philosophy. Right now.
7:05
Speaker 1: You're just you're doing gospel music. That's your base, that's
7:08
Speaker 1: your inspiration, and that that versatility is what I enjoy
7:11
Speaker 1: about you. And do you hear that a lot? Willie?
7:17
Speaker 1: You know what I do? You know, the gospel was
7:20
Speaker 1: something that shame in my life, you know, I'm not
7:22
Speaker 1: a guy who pretends like I've always been perfect, still
7:25
Speaker 1: not perfect. Now, I'm not interested in telling people what
7:29
Speaker 1: they can do to go to hell and all that
7:31
Speaker 1: man telling people the power that they have on the
7:33
Speaker 1: inside of them. And it's been working for us, Like
7:36
Speaker 1: you know what I tell my team every single thing.
7:38
Speaker 1: Let's go out here, let's be authentically authentically who we are,
7:42
Speaker 1: and let's repel who we got to repel, and let's
7:44
Speaker 1: grab who we can grab. And I think you know
7:47
Speaker 1: the world's been blessing us. Thats been't work here, absolutely absolutely.
7:50
Speaker 1: Now let's go to the next point that came out

8:02
Speaker 1: Do I see another Steve Harvey in the making here?
8:05
Speaker 1: Of what's what's happening now with you? When you start
8:08
Speaker 1: these platforms, you start laying these seeds. Where are these
8:10
Speaker 1: seeds gonna go? Because you have to me the mentor
8:13
Speaker 1: you you know, you have to see I'm a big thinker.
8:15

8:38
Speaker 1: listen on the line with you, because I'm sure you're
8:40
Speaker 1: gonna give me some where I can believe. And I
8:47
Speaker 1: don't want to get out here and do you know,
8:49
Speaker 1: make too many mispects, man, for what I'm doing right now. Ultimately,
8:52
Speaker 1: I would love to have my own shows to kind
8:56
Speaker 1: of take away that signation where it's like, all, well,
9:00
Speaker 1: that's just kind of the perfect people. And I'll get
9:02
Speaker 1: to that after I finished kicking it at the bar
9:04
Speaker 1: and it's a retirement plan. And I would love to
9:06
Speaker 1: bring some faith based content to the mainstream that can
9:09
Speaker 1: be inspiring the people, kind of like what you're doing now.
9:11
Speaker 1: You inspire people in information. People get that information, that
9:15
Speaker 1: implement that information, and you get the teestimonies. Man. So
9:18
Speaker 1: I would love to have a show on mainstream television.
9:21
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm just glad that I I lives
9:23
Speaker 1: to align with each other, man, so we can take
9:25
Speaker 1: it to the next level. What exactly is the show
9:27
Speaker 1: us about the show. The crew, let's reaching a hundred
9:30
Speaker 1: and sixteen million homes around the world. What exactly as
9:32
Speaker 1: the crew? You know what? I produced the television show
9:36
Speaker 1: called flat Out TV. It was a boy a radio host,
9:38
Speaker 1: which is myself, and I was interviewing a list artists
9:41
Speaker 1: and I was just asking them some of the craziest
9:43
Speaker 1: questions ever. I produced that show in my basement and
9:46
Speaker 1: I took it to agin most people know about the
9:49
Speaker 1: Trinity broad Absolutely, they licensed that show. They did start
9:53
Speaker 1: seen episode. I came in and I did an interview
9:55
Speaker 1: with tv N and they said, man, you know what,
9:57
Speaker 1: we had an opportunity on Juice TV to our more
10:01
Speaker 1: younger side and would love you to be your host.
10:04
Speaker 1: I prayed about it and I started showing my time
10:06
Speaker 1: in for the last two years, and that show is
10:08
Speaker 1: doing really well across the world. Um, it's a talk
10:11
Speaker 1: show with me and three other amazing hosts, one Hispanic get,
10:15
Speaker 1: another Puerto Rican girl, and another Caucasian woman. So we
10:18
Speaker 1: touched a lot of different ethnicicities and you know, it's
10:22
Speaker 1: just that fun. It's been a front ride. I learned
10:24
Speaker 1: everything I had to learn. We moved into a new
10:26
Speaker 1: b et opportunity with joyful, no one to tie true
10:29
Speaker 1: to this. So that was an amazing opportunity. And so
10:32
Speaker 1: now I got that blog. So we started producing company
10:34
Speaker 1: Man and building and this was set to say, you
10:37
Speaker 1: know what, let's do this thing. We got an amazing
10:39
Speaker 1: following on social media. Let's take this one point stiven
10:42
Speaker 1: million people and let's turn it in and solf. Now
10:44
Speaker 1: you did something interesting. Now somebody gave you with giving
10:47
Speaker 1: you an opportunity, and then you said you prayed about it.
10:50
Speaker 1: I gotta ask you, Okay, here's the opportunity. Why did
10:54
Speaker 1: you have to pray about it? You know, everything that
10:58
Speaker 1: looks good and may not work with your ultimate goal.
11:01
Speaker 1: Like what I see people do is they'll get into
11:04
Speaker 1: something just because it looks like what you think is
11:08
Speaker 1: going to be. But when I'm praying about it and
11:09
Speaker 1: I can sult with the father, it's almost like I
11:11
Speaker 1: get I get a chance to get a full sight
11:13
Speaker 1: on where he wants to take me. So if I
11:15
Speaker 1: don't have peace about it, everybody in the world, who was?
11:18
Speaker 1: I know they're giving you a trillion dollars like that, right,
11:21
Speaker 1: I just know that there's a bigger plan of my
11:23
Speaker 1: life and it is God today, will be God tomorrow.
11:25
Speaker 1: And so I consult the Father like he's the manufacturer
11:28
Speaker 1: of me, so I can figure I'll go to the manufacturer. Cool. Now, now,
11:32
Speaker 1: these are these are all questions that I'm asking you
11:34
Speaker 1: because I want my listeners and my people watch on
11:37
Speaker 1: Facebook to understand that you know they're there. You don't
11:40
Speaker 1: jump at the first opportunity. You don't jump because it's
11:42
Speaker 1: been offered. And that's why I asked that. You know,
11:44
Speaker 1: I know why you prayed. But sometimes when the people
11:47
Speaker 1: like you said they're getting there, they get a job offer,
11:50
Speaker 1: they take your job, realized that's the wrong job for them,
11:52
Speaker 1: and guess what, they're mad. They made They man, they man,
11:56
Speaker 1: they're mad. Oh, they sit next to the man at
11:58
Speaker 1: the hours they got to work, and they manage the
12:00
Speaker 1: type of work that they do. So when you're getting
12:03
Speaker 1: an opportunity, and I'm just gonna I'm just gonna slow
12:05
Speaker 1: it down, even for most people, you know, if you
12:07
Speaker 1: don't prayer about it, just think about it right down,
12:10
Speaker 1: the good and the bad of that opportunity. And that's
12:13
Speaker 1: all prayer does. And it just slows you down and
12:16
Speaker 1: also allows you to speak to yourself because that's what
12:19
Speaker 1: prayers about reaching inside yourself, contemplating or you willing to
12:23
Speaker 1: go forward with it? Do you have the time because
12:25
Speaker 1: you have to travel to do that show? Correct? Really more,
12:30
Speaker 1: you have to be out of Angeles for once a month.
12:32
Speaker 1: Once a month, so I meant that okay. So so
12:35
Speaker 1: it wasn't like he's in Atlanta and he had to
12:37
Speaker 1: turn around just just getting his car and drive up,
12:40
Speaker 1: you know, two eight five and get off on the
12:42
Speaker 1: exit and you're there. You had to get on the
12:44
Speaker 1: plane and go out there once a month. And people go, well,
12:47
Speaker 1: it just wance some month. But guess what, you gotta
12:49
Speaker 1: leave his family. He gotta adjust his lifestyle as he
12:52
Speaker 1: on the East coast. Now you go to West coast,
12:54
Speaker 1: there's three hour difference. There is there is a change
12:58
Speaker 1: in how you thinking, what you do, and when you
13:01
Speaker 1: go to those different environments, you know you've been a way.
13:03
Speaker 1: It's it really is a big deal, and I just loot.
13:06
Speaker 1: Everybody wants to get there. Everybody wants to go to
13:08
Speaker 1: New York, everybody wants to go to l A. But
13:10
Speaker 1: what they always forgets the time and why you're there,
13:14
Speaker 1: and it's not gonna happen overnight. So now you added
13:17
Speaker 1: this this new great opportunity to your resume because you
13:21
Speaker 1: prayed about it, you thought about it, you disgusted with
13:24
Speaker 1: your family and all I'm told you, why are you
13:26
Speaker 1: talking to us? Go get it? And you went there
13:29
Speaker 1: with full blessings. Correct. Yeah, man, that's that's how our family,
13:35
Speaker 1: that's how family roles, and we get it. We live
13:37
Speaker 1: in the mile zone like most people. You know, most
13:39
Speaker 1: people say, man, you know what, I'm trying to balance everything.
13:41
Speaker 1: But my family, we sit at the table, we look
13:44
Speaker 1: at what we have in front of lessels right, we're
13:46
Speaker 1: willing to take your time out or we're willing to
13:49
Speaker 1: take this money out of We're willing to take take
13:51
Speaker 1: all of our resources and put it forwards. This unanimous decision,
13:55
Speaker 1: we go for it. And if it isn't and we
13:57
Speaker 1: just realized that it's time for When I got five
14:01
Speaker 1: more questions, I gotta ask you, I gotta go to

Speaker 1: people listening right now, thank you rich don't don't be
15:34
Speaker 1: slighted now. Yeah, you know what, but I didn't. I
15:39
Speaker 1: didn't account for these taxes and and of course, you know,
15:43
Speaker 1: being youngs I bought my mama, catholat Page and her
15:45
Speaker 1: fields off. I did the whole thing. And then Nelly
15:50
Speaker 1: sold thirty million records. Man, I saw a thirty you
15:53
Speaker 1: hear Me, they hear it up and got me out
15:56
Speaker 1: that record like you hear Me. They let me go,
15:58
Speaker 1: and uh, and I was forced to become an entrepreneur.
16:01
Speaker 1: And I came out with another song called let Your
16:03
Speaker 1: Body Down, and I did twenty five million gets on
16:05
Speaker 1: this platform called my Space, end up telling a lot
16:08
Speaker 1: of records, man, and just independently, man, we were able
16:11
Speaker 1: to double that that little money that Universal had given
16:14
Speaker 1: us independently, and then we moved to l a sign
16:17
Speaker 1: with Warner Brothers Records. And you know that's why I
16:19
Speaker 1: got my call to ministry man because honestly, we were
16:21
Speaker 1: just smoking too much and I decided to go to
16:23
Speaker 1: each other. Uh Man, you know, I got more than
16:26
Speaker 1: our bargain for, to be quite honest, you know. So,
16:29
Speaker 1: so it's interesting because that that usually happens with people,
16:32
Speaker 1: and I just like, like I always like to slow
16:34
Speaker 1: down and everybody here this. You know, you get that check.
16:37
Speaker 1: You forgot about the tax man, you forgot about accountant.
16:40
Speaker 1: All you saw was that two hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
16:44
Speaker 1: But you didn't see the consequences of the of the
16:46
Speaker 1: role that that play in your life, because if you
16:49
Speaker 1: used that entire two fifty dollars, then the tax man
16:52
Speaker 1: gonna come asking for their at least a hundred thousand.
16:55
Speaker 1: They want at least a hundred thousands that two and
16:57
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars, unless you break it into your co operation,
17:00
Speaker 1: is able to write off as much as you can.
17:02
Speaker 1: And so so, but that didn't stop you, you know.
17:05
Speaker 1: But I like the fact that you didn't do this.
17:06
Speaker 1: You just say I bought myself a call. I didn't.
17:09
Speaker 1: I bought me apartment, I bought me some gold chain.
17:11
Speaker 1: You wouldn't look I bought my mom a car, I
17:14
Speaker 1: paid off a bills, so least she was hitting in
17:15
Speaker 1: the right direction with it. Okay, you were thinking of
17:18
Speaker 1: the right world. There you go, There you go. Now,
17:26
Speaker 1: the key, the key to this whole conversation just the
17:28
Speaker 1: fact that when they let you go, which is probably
17:31
Speaker 1: one of the but you saw that comment though, right,
17:33
Speaker 1: You wouldn't like stunned when it happened. You just didn't
17:35
Speaker 1: want it to happen. Correct. You know what, I've never stunned.
17:40
Speaker 1: I'm always paying. We don't get ready, we stay ready.
17:43
Speaker 1: So I was ready. Yeah, Because I always tell people
17:45
Speaker 1: that when when you find somebody at a job, they
17:48
Speaker 1: know they're gonna be fired. They're just waiting for you
17:50
Speaker 1: to make the decision. And I think that's important when
17:53
Speaker 1: I when I bring this conversation not to bring up
17:55
Speaker 1: any negative spirit about your life. It's just you have
17:57
Speaker 1: to prepare for those moments when they come. You accepted,
18:00
Speaker 1: But what are you gonna do when it happens? And
18:02
Speaker 1: you said, what you did was you put your own song,
18:06
Speaker 1: became an independent entrepreneur, and guess what success came your way?
18:10
Speaker 1: Because now it wasn't about a check, It was all
18:13
Speaker 1: on you correct, Yeah, yeah, it was, and we had
18:17
Speaker 1: to become that just better budget is um and having
18:20
Speaker 1: a team of tips. We used to run with fifty people.
18:23
Speaker 1: We had to break it down to tin. But you know,
18:26
Speaker 1: sometimes and other people money, you're just rolling and rolling.
18:29
Speaker 1: But when you start looking at those budgets and how
18:31
Speaker 1: your money's leaving, you had to start. I had to
18:34
Speaker 1: start making better financial decisions. It wasn't a whole floor
18:37
Speaker 1: was the hotels. There was three somebody gonna sleep on
18:40
Speaker 1: the floor and somebody's gonna sleep on the couch. But
18:43
Speaker 1: we don't have a good time because it's coming out
18:44
Speaker 1: of our buggess. So it was a lot different once
18:46
Speaker 1: we became independent artist asolutely awesome. Now now that people
18:50
Speaker 1: have been hearing it from very jump, I was talking
18:52

19:48
Speaker 1: we look at the different views of the world and
19:49
Speaker 1: we say, you know what, we have an opinion too,
19:52
Speaker 1: and so instead of allowing something just to be negative.
19:54
Speaker 1: But you know what, there was hurricane in Houston, but
19:58
Speaker 1: this is how you can help and make sure that
20:00
Speaker 1: you can make impact. Oh yeah, this person did hurt,
20:03
Speaker 1: but this is what we can do for their family
20:04
Speaker 1: to make sure that they're okay. In the situation and
20:06
Speaker 1: so we we do everything that everybody else because we
20:08
Speaker 1: just put it through a kingdom. Still, Okay, what's what's what?
20:12
Speaker 1: What is Monday? You do a money segment on on Mondays? Correct, Yeah,
20:17
Speaker 1: we have money Monday. I bring you in my financial
20:20
Speaker 1: specialist and not Thorton's and we just tackle money issues
20:23
Speaker 1: and listen, people have called in from all across the
20:27
Speaker 1: country and need the last two years, people who have
20:29
Speaker 1: started businesses who have become multip millionaires from information that
20:34
Speaker 1: we were able to give on on Mondays. And we
20:37
Speaker 1: have people who were working jobs and now that a
20:39
Speaker 1: side hustle was becoming their main job. And so we
20:41
Speaker 1: have so many different people who become an independence because
20:44
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm so interested in people having a financial
20:48
Speaker 1: like financial freedom like we had the opportunity to do.
20:51
Speaker 1: It's hard work, you bump your head and it hurts,
20:54
Speaker 1: but we just give people those tips and those secrets
20:56
Speaker 1: and you know, we take people likes to the next
20:58
Speaker 1: level every Monday. Well that's important because that's what money
21:01
Speaker 1: making conversations is about. And that's why, like I said,
21:04
Speaker 1: when I listened to your show and I started watching
21:05
Speaker 1: the break down, You're just not over there just playing
21:08
Speaker 1: music and just being hyped. You're giving information and giving
21:11
Speaker 1: people ways to win in life on a daily basis,
21:13
Speaker 1: And I think that's really important because of the fact
21:15
Speaker 1: that I know you do a lot of national shows
21:18
Speaker 1: or motivating shows with Eric Thomas. You know, I happened
21:22
Speaker 1: to catch you when he was hosting the show in
21:24
Speaker 1: Houston when when the when the tour came through Houston. Now,
21:27
Speaker 1: what role do you actually play on that because of
21:30
Speaker 1: the fact that I know I've seen you host, But
21:32
Speaker 1: I would like to let everybody hear the real story
21:34
Speaker 1: from the actual artists and what they get out of
21:36
Speaker 1: it when they do those those opportunities. Well, you know what,
21:42
Speaker 1: Eric Thomas and I were connected in Atlanta and it
21:45
Speaker 1: was just kid spirits. It was almost as if, you know,
21:48
Speaker 1: we had known each We knew each other for years.
21:50
Speaker 1: I watched him when I was when I lost everything
21:53
Speaker 1: or one of my big fields didn't go the way
21:54
Speaker 1: I thought it was to. I started watching him, and
21:58
Speaker 1: you know, I just stayed true to who what I was.
22:00
Speaker 1: I was doing YouTube videos over three times a million
22:03
Speaker 1: people for getting to watch those videos, and we just
22:05
Speaker 1: connected and he said, you know what, I want to
22:07
Speaker 1: bring you out to my marriage events. And when it
22:10
Speaker 1: came to the marriage events, he gave me thirty minutes
22:12
Speaker 1: to do to open. I finished in twenty nine minutes.
22:16
Speaker 1: I went up there. I was authentically myself. I didn't
22:18
Speaker 1: try to be bigger a batter than I was. And
22:21
Speaker 1: he said, you know what I gotta fig opportunity would
22:23
Speaker 1: stay ready, opportunity, And he said, I want you to
22:25
Speaker 1: come on out, And I came out, man and honestly,
22:27
Speaker 1: Spence one of the biggest fast opportunities that I've ever
22:30
Speaker 1: been a part of. And just beating around good people,
22:33
Speaker 1: it stretches me. Like most people want to stay around
22:35
Speaker 1: people that they're doing better then because they are afforded
22:38
Speaker 1: of the challenge. When I'm around these guys, it stretches me,
22:42
Speaker 1: pushes me to another level that I never thought that
22:44
Speaker 1: I could go to. So Eric Thomas, my mentor level
22:46
Speaker 1: of advice man shout out to YouTube got to No
22:49
Speaker 1: Man had him on the show and I got to
22:50
Speaker 1: see him because he did a lot of work for
22:52
Speaker 1: He would always come out to the mentoring camps to
22:54
Speaker 1: Steve and I did together in dollars. You know when
22:57
Speaker 1: he when he really was the hip hop you know
23:00
Speaker 1: preacher back in the day. Now now you're grown man, Preacher.
23:02
Speaker 1: Now I can't I can't get off the show man
23:07
Speaker 1: to talk about your book. Man Happily ever after, Man
23:09
Speaker 1: that you and you're right your you and your righte
23:11
Speaker 1: wrote tell us about that man. Why that's important? A
23:13
Speaker 1: man about marriage, finances and winning with a blended family. Well,
23:19
Speaker 1: you know, me and my wife has been there for
23:21
Speaker 1: twelve years. I always tell people what to fight, you, sir,
23:25
Speaker 1: because I was still managing myself, sir, selfish and you know,
23:28
Speaker 1: once I start, I know that. Now, don't don't act
23:31
Speaker 1: like you by yourself. Now that's a that's a big
23:33
Speaker 1: club of stupidity there, I'm gonna saying, so, well, I'm
23:36
Speaker 1: not gonna just act like you by yourself out there.
23:38
Speaker 1: Just stand over here like I'm I'm the man. I
23:41
Speaker 1: don't know what you're talking about. And he crazy. No, really,
23:44
Speaker 1: I'm in that club, been in that club, captain. Stupid
23:47
Speaker 1: has been ridden on my head. I just want to
23:49
Speaker 1: let you know, when you're talking, I'm in the car
23:52
Speaker 1: back seat with you. You're driving, but I'm in the
23:54
Speaker 1: back seat co signing all that ignorance. Okay, now, tell
23:57
Speaker 1: everybody about it. Hey, that's that's the truth. So we decided,
24:02
Speaker 1: you know, we understood that any people were going through
24:05
Speaker 1: in their manage. But I got tired of people being faked.
24:07
Speaker 1: Them say well, you know it's all good, or just
24:10
Speaker 1: pray about it. I said, Man, I was there was
24:12
Speaker 1: a book out or some information that I could have
24:14
Speaker 1: grabbed a hole too, so I wouldn't have to go
24:16
Speaker 1: through the infidelity, so I would have known how to
24:18
Speaker 1: deal with my life when I lost em thing and
24:21
Speaker 1: I had to take my wife back to her house
24:23
Speaker 1: and live with her. Book, I wi there was some
24:25
Speaker 1: information that would show me, like in the Blinded Family,
24:29
Speaker 1: because I have a mother of my child and I
24:30
Speaker 1: have a wife. I was showing some information to get
24:33
Speaker 1: me and her on one of poor and I said,
24:35
Speaker 1: if it doesn't exist, let's be transparent. Let's show people
24:38
Speaker 1: how we we conquered infidelity. Let's show people how we
24:41
Speaker 1: conquered being broke. Because now having a business that for
24:45
Speaker 1: my basement, we get a chance to make high six figures.
24:47
Speaker 1: You offer opec our businesses. Show them that. And he
24:51
Speaker 1: was like, no, I don't want to do it like
24:53
Speaker 1: I used to be faked. For these people, we're still
24:55
Speaker 1: going through it. I said, okay, cool, and so I
24:57
Speaker 1: ended up writing the book. And after I in this,
25:00
Speaker 1: I said, I I got it done, would you mind
25:02
Speaker 1: writing some chapters. She read it and she realized all
25:04
Speaker 1: the stuff that we had to overcome, and she started
25:07
Speaker 1: putting her chapters in. And that book really reconciled a
25:10
Speaker 1: lot of the hurt that we had to endure because
25:12
Speaker 1: we knew it wasn't for us, it was for other people.
25:14
Speaker 1: So if you go out to your marriage right now,
25:16
Speaker 1: I'm just challenging you're a lot on the Happily After
