| 0:53.0 | Jack Canfield, he's coming up. |
| 0:56.0 | Thank you. Thank you very much. I want to sing like Jamie. I want to dance like who Tim up here when he's leading the choir. |
| 1:06.0 | I want to preach like Michael. I want to make jokes like my wife. I want to own. |
| 1:11.0 | And here's the thing. All of that is in me. It's in you too. We are. We have everything in us to do everything we need and we're now being called to do a lot. |
| 1:21.0 | When I gave birth, I didn't give birth as Mary and said I collect I catch a child. But once I did it, I realized, you know, it's not something you do. |

| 2:24.0 | And there are people that just love life. And we're having a good time. We're like on vacation. And we looked down. I saw there was a war going on. |
| 2:31.0 | I went, oh my God, I got to go down there and help. And everyone went, come on, you're being codependent. You know, let them figure out their own problem. |
| 2:37.0 | I would know I have to do this. And so a bunch of people chose to come down with me. And I keep running into people and go, oh, you're part of the Golden Motorcycle Garing. |
