Bet on Yourself

Well, speaking of superpowers, I wanted to kind of dive into this next question.

And I really appreciate the story of being drawn to something.

You know, you never know.

There's a book I used to read with my daughter and it's about ringing your bell on the inside.

You have to try lots of things and see what rings your bell inside your heart because that's what's special to you.

So before becoming the auctionista in your pre-life as a financial advisor...

Was there one thing about yourself that you knew or felt was different and unique even before you fully embraced it and rang the bell as the auctioneer and had another becoming journey? Yeah.

Absolutely.

It's my inner child.

It's Baby Lane.

And I talk about Baby Lane a lot because I feel like I'm very connected to my inner child.

I'm very playful.

I like to have fun.

So I've always been a bit of a ham.

So, I mean, I knew I've always felt a little different also because, you know, I'm gay, queer, non-binary.

I always felt a little bit unusual, but I always felt that there was something quite different about me compared to all the other kids at school.

So, and I do think that it boils down to that.

So many adults forget to play.

They forget about the joy.

And I always go back to being that little two-year-old self, you know, where I'm in my crib, standing up from a night's sleep, hands on the rails.

My mommy comes into the room and say, good morning.

And I'm like, yes, it's daytime.

What are we going to do? What are we going to explore? What's going to happen today? And I feel very, very strongly about keeping that in the forefront of everything that I do every day of my

life.

That's such a fantastic answer.
