The Empress Patta meets with Talmage, her podcast manager from Utah. They talk about the perception of being perfect, losing your way and taking accountability. No one is perfect, even when raised with a happy family, anyone can lose their way. Talmage lived a super clean life with a mission and then found himself feeling lost. We all make mistakes but by taking accountability and being honest with the ones we love we can begin to receive the support we need to move forward. Don&apos;t let the fear of rejection stop you from taking action.
