00:00What made you change in an industry that forces you to change to what they want you to be?
00:07You know, the God honest truth is that I took myself out of the mindset that I'm in an industry
00:14and that I'm just doing what God has purposed me to do, right?
00:19But it really happened when I was six.
00:21So I always tell people I had to get to a very dark place to come into this understanding.
00:26And what I realized that I had been thinking for so long
00:29and covering my true self, right, that I had lost myself.
00:35But when I prayed my prayer when I was sick and I said,
00:37God, if you heal me, you can have me.
00:39That meant I could no longer try to live my life my way anymore, their way anymore.
00:45I had to live it exactly how he wanted me to live it, how he created me to live it.
00:51And so that's true freedom.
00:54And so I only wanted to be free.
00:56I never want to go back into not ever being free again.
00:59And so when I say I truly believe what God has for me is for me, that's freedom.
01:04And I don't care about what somebody offered me.
01:07I just be like, oh, okay, let me see about it, okay?
01:11Let me pray about it.
01:13And then if God say no, I'd be like, you know what, God bless y'all.
01:15No, that ain't going to work for Tav.
01:16And they'd be like, well, how much do you need?
01:17It's not even about the money.
01:19It's just that it don't serve me.
01:20Right?
01:21And so I'm grateful that God has blessed me to be able to live in that space.
01:27But I was also saying no when I didn't have money in the beginning.
01:32It was in those early stages when I was just trying to learn really how to be obedient in my walk.
01:39I was saying no then to things that I needed money.
01:43Right.
01:43But I was like, the Lord said I can't do that, so it's a no.
01:47But then after saying no, a couple weeks later, he showed me why I had to say no so that I could say yes later.
