Harris Jackson, welcome to Call Her Daddy. Thank you. Since before you were even born, you have been in the public eye. Your dad was one of the most famous musicians of all time. When I looked out my hotel window and there's just like a sea of people with signs and stuff, I'm like, I didn't have social skills. I was very live fast and hard. I wanted to grow up fast. I'm in my seventh year of recovery of like, okay, what's it like to be in right relationship with myself? At some point, it does become my responsibility to heal and to start taking care of myself. This good awful thing happened. How do I use this to be of service to someone else? You called off your engagement. Sometimes when one thing is being better, we'll disregard the other things. The conversation kind of becomes about, okay, what's the need? How do I give that to myself? So that when Homie comes knocking, I'm like, I'm good on this. What else can you bring to the table? Just because someone is a good worse, doesn't mean they're my person.
