0:01Hey, it's Jay.

0:03I don't know what your day's been like, but I was just thinking about you for a minute.

0:08And I hope you're being a little patient with yourself, because you deserve it.

0:12And yeah, I'll talk to you soon.

0:24Today I want to explore forgiveness.

0:34But forcing forgiveness before you're ready can leave you feeling even more compromised.

0:47Let's dive in.
