00:00Hi, Andrew. You've been so honest about your grief and you've helped so many people. How
00:03does that feel to know that you've helped people go through similar situations? And
00:07this film as well is helping people.
00:09Yeah. I feel very, very grateful that I have a platform to talk about my own personal experiences
00:18with loss and to maybe help open up a conversation for a culture that doesn't like to talk about
00:27grief and loss. And I think it's just, we have an opportunity to relearn and to realize
00:37that it's safe and in fact it's healing and in fact it can be quite a beautiful, bonding,
00:42binding thing. None of us are exempt. None of us get out of here alive. We're all heading
00:51the same direction and there's something profound in that. There's something mysterious and
00:58beautiful because the time between birth and death is made all the more sacred because
01:04it all ends.
01:05Absolutely. Thank you so much.
01:06Thank you. Thank you.
