A man raised in an angry household with poor emotional training decided to shrink his social circle deliberately, cutting friends and even family to protect himself and find peace. Speaker B responds with a phrase about love's transformative power.
I needed to grow too. And sometimes if things aren't adding up, you need to start subtracting. You know, the household there was full of landmines and you know if it's gonna be screaming or something physical was gonna happen. I didn't have the language to be able to express myself when I was young. So anybody that knows me knew I was rage fits. Rage fits. And that was what I saw from my father at home because he also didn't know, you know, that emotional intelligence wasn't taught to him at an early age.
[FOREIGN LANGUAGE] That's the power of love.
Yeah, I think it was from my end needing to take a look at myself and understand that I needed to grow too. In that case, keeping my circle small. A lot of times I say less friends, less people. And in the case, it happened to be my family. But on the other side of that, it led to so many great moments in me finding myself and being comfortable in my own skin.
