A short YouTube monologue by Chris Collins ("Books That Changed My Life: Justin Wenzel & Stop Doing That Sht Part #2") reflecting on the mismatch between outward success ("making good money working for dad") and internal struggles. The speaker describes efforts to convince oneself of normality while relying on unhealthy coping behaviors—morning shakes and the need to drink before going to the showroom—highlighting the emotional toll of working in a family business.

So you're making good money working for dad. Yeah. Yeah. But inside you feel what? When you're in it, you're trying to do everything you can to tell yourself that you're normal, Right? Or that's what you're looking for is some sense of normality. Some sense of, like, this is just how we are and this is just what we do, right? And that may be true in the moment, but then when you wake up at 7 o' clock the next morning and you have shakes, you have to have a drink before you go into the showroom, that's not normal.
