• “When I got to Day 75, it just dawned on me, ‘This is ridiculous. Practice is not a kind of panacea for fear!’” (11:00)

• “I didn’t feel safe in front of the camera or an audience because there was part of me that remembers it was dangerous to be put in the center of attention in that way.” (13:22)
