00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:39.479
Welcome again. Today I want to start by talking

00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:43.759
a little bit about our own personal biases. The

00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:46.579
reason I want to start here is that when we talk

00:00:46.579 --> 00:00:48.719
about building a support community, we need to

00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:51.920
begin by understanding why it is that we cannot

00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:56.460
rely on our own self, can't rely on self -reflection

00:00:56.460 --> 00:00:59.759
to be our sole guide for figuring out how to

00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:04.930
live a better life for ourselves, right? So we

00:01:04.930 --> 00:01:07.829
need to begin with a harsh reality, and the reality

00:01:07.829 --> 00:01:12.170
is that we all have personal biases of all kinds,

00:01:12.310 --> 00:01:15.769
right? But the person that we have the hardest

00:01:15.769 --> 00:01:21.250
time seeing clearly and accurately, most realistically,

00:01:21.430 --> 00:01:26.030
is actually ourself, right? The person that you

00:01:26.030 --> 00:01:27.590
need to be the most honest with...
