I think with the fact that my parents were Holocaust survivors, I definitely find it easy to feel like a victim, especially when something is really unjust,

whether he could turn down from a pitch

or if someone really did something that was grossly unfair,

like promises made where they distribute your movie and he don't distribute your movie

It's easy to feel hurt, but what I found is that with gratitude I can stop that feeling

I can put it on pause when I ask myself what can I be grateful for?

The fact that I'm breathing, the fact that I can move my fingers.

I also reflect on what my parents went through which is like you know a lot tougher

than what I'm going through at the moment. Shit I got rejected get over it and I

learned that late in life because it's easy to get like riled up when you know that something is really

unjust, socially unjust, especially, but to have that anger and victimhood inside of

you you realize you're only hurting yourself.

Hello friends and welcome back to the Light Watkins Show where I interview ordinary

folks just like you and me who've taken extraordinary leaps of faith in the direction of their

path, their purpose, or what they've identified with as their mission.

And in doing so, they've been able to positively impact and inspire the lives of many other people

who've either heard about their story or who witness them in action or who've directly benefited

from their work.

And this week on the show, I am honored

to be in conversation with the creator

of one of my favorite documentaries

that I've seen on Netflix in the last year or two.
