| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody. Hope you're doing well, Steve and Molly from Free Domain. So yesterday, all my |
| 0:05.0 | trouble. So I had a call, well, a message in my live stream from last night, Wednesday night |
| 0:10.1 | live. This is the next day, Thursday. And a shrink, he referred to himself as a shrink, |
| 0:16.5 | means a psychologist, psychiatrist, therapist, something like that. So he wrote to me in the live stream |
| 0:21.4 | and he said, Steph, why is it that I'm able to help my clients, but my own life is kind of a mess? |
| 0:26.8 | How am I so good at helping other people, but not fixing my own life? And I said, well, the results |
| 0:32.5 | of that would result from why you would be like that is because as a kid, your messed up family demanded that you provide resources to them and solve all their problems, which came at your own expense, so you're very good at helping other people without sorting out your own life.
