0:00.0	I'm Anthony Padilla and I spent today with Balcary to uncover the truth about how she went from working four exhausting jobs at once,
0:08.0	to live streaming to hundreds of thousands of viewers and amassing a fortune that's allowed her to support her family.
0:14.7	She'll reveal how the bullying she faced has shaped who she's become.
0:18.7	And she'll address how the dark childhood and loss that she experienced has driven her to rethink everything.

1:13.4	spoil us to kind of make up for all the fighting stuff so I was always asking for
1:16.9	games. Eventually my oldest half-brother committed suicide and I think that made my dad even more of an alcoholic so
1:25.2	it just kind of spiraled at that point.
1:27.5	My dad's been through so much he also lost like his first wife in a car accident as well
