My last word of encouragement would be, you know, be willing to do the hard thing in terms of healing, right? As you keep saying, Gina, it takes one person go first. You know, if you're looking at your family going, Oh, we've gone through some stuff and I don't even know where to begin, be willing to go first and know that other people are going to be watching you and listening and seeing the changes in you. And that can be the change that one person needs.
