| 0:00.0 | Hey, what's up everybody? Welcome to Trust and Believe. Oh, my goodness, it's Pride Month, and I'm so excited to continue our conversations that we've been having this month. And I did want to say before we began, I got new invisibleized. So if it sounds like I'm spitting when I'm talking, I apologize. And it kind of hurt. Like, I feel like this third tray is literally starting to stretch my teeth out. |
| 0:26.2 | But we're going to continue this conversation with the man sitting next to me if you are watching this. |
| 0:31.1 | And if you're not watching this, I'm sitting next to Chip Hoppa, who is, you know, we have this really great working relationship, but we're also good friends |
| 0:40.3 | and about four plus years ago. And, you know, when you meet somebody, you get to know them |
| 0:45.3 | and you know them over time and you build a relationship. Well, a couple years ago, I found out |
| 0:50.3 | that Chip and I had something very much in common. And all of you know that I was sexually abused. |
| 0:55.1 | And while our stories are completely different, I feel like you can learn a lot from people |
| 0:59.9 | who not only have been through something similar to you, but you can also learn how they dealt |
| 1:05.1 | with it. And maybe if you're dealing with something very similar, you can find ways to either |
| 1:09.9 | cope or get counseling or what have you. |
| 1:12.5 | But we're going to listen to Chip Story today. |
| 1:14.4 | He's going to be very open and honest about his experience. |
| 1:18.9 | And I hope that, again, it can help you too or maybe you can help someone that you know. |
| 1:23.8 | So sit back, get ready to trust and believe. |
| 1:30.2 | This is Sean Tee, and it's time to trust and believe. This is Sean T, and it's time to trust and believe. |
| 1:50.0 | All right, Chip. |
| 1:53.5 | Before we get into the other stuff, I need people to know that Chip is crazy. |
| 1:57.7 | See, y'all, a lot of y'all, if you know team, Shanty, a lot of y'all see Chip kind of handling things and he don't play. But Chip is crazy. See, y'all, a lot of y'all, if you know Team Chanty, a lot of y'all see Chip |
| 2:02.0 | kind of handling things and he don't play. But Chip is messy and he's really fun. I want to |
| 2:07.0 | give them a little behind the scrim of who you are. Like, what is, what do you enjoy in your |
| 2:13.9 | life? Like, what is something that you're like, I absolutely love doing this? And nobody knows, though. Everyone knows you love fitness. Is there something out there that you love that? It's like this hidden secret. I would say it's something that people probably don't know that I like being alone. I feel like most people would probably not think that because I like fitness and I like taking group fitness and I like being in groups of people. But I really find the recharging to be something I can do |
| 2:38.6 | when I'm alone. Wow. So when Elliot leaves the house, he gets happy. Okay, so Elliot's over there |
