 Hey, Izby, how are you, sweet boy? Hey. Good, good, good. Thanks. Happy we're at Purple Day. Happy we're at Purple Day to you. Very exciting day. Do you remember the day I came out to everyone? Yes, I do remember that day. I've told lots of people about that day. Yeah, I remember it vividly. I was thinking about what I was going to say and I was practicing in the car on the way home, talking to myself. And I remember when we were having dinner on the couch and I was getting the confidence to tell everyone and I didn't know. It was just like ripping a band-aid off. It was so good. It was funny because we were sitting there doing the old TV dinner and when you said something about, oh, I've got something really important to tell you, like I swallowed and thinking, oh, what's he going to tell us? Then when you said, oh, I'm gay, I'm, yep, OK. No worries, kept eating. Like, it was no biggie. As you know, as we've said, we've always, we always knew or, you know, known for a long time and, yeah, it was a funny moment. I've told lots of people about that night, just the fact that, you know, it must have been hard for you to, you know, finally come out, but, you know, it was just not, it didn't faze us at all. It was just, you know, yeah, let's just keep eating. It's all good. Yeah, it was a funny night. It was and I don't know why I was so scared and apprehensive about it in hindsight. It was a big, not event, which was really wonderful. I think like, because, you know, we have such a close relationship and you always worry what, you know, your parents would think. So I think it was just that not knowing the unknown. That was scary, but obviously you've all been just amazing and still supporting me throughout ever since. So it's been just amazing. I couldn't ask for a better family and support, but yeah, and even all my friends as well, like, they've all been amazing. It was all good and it was obviously a relief for you on the day. So, and it was really for us that you finally told us because we were always just waiting to be told. We knew it was coming sometime, but we just didn't know when in front of the dinner table or in front of the television dinner. That was all that was all good because we're so supportive of you and still love you regardless. So it was going to make no difference. And I know how lucky I am to have friends and family that are supportive because I know it's not the case for everyone. Some people have a really hard time coming out and just can't don't have the confidence in themselves and worried about what people would think about them when they do come out. But if they're in that state of mind, they need to know that there is the support out there for them. And there's so many other people have been in their shoes and it is when you can be your true self and be on the other side and open and honest with everyone. It is a big relief and a big weight off your shoulders. Yeah, it's probably hard for the youngsters because they've all got, and I can't speak for all the families around the place, but they need to have the confidence and know that they're going to be valued in society. And they've got support mechanisms they can fall to. And maybe just you probably hesitated to tell us thinking not knowing how we're going to react, but a lot of families will be supportive and they've just got to have the confidence and courage to be themselves because we would have been no different as you told us in grade 10, 11, 12, whatever. It's, we love you no differently to before or after you told us. So I'm sure that would be applicable to a lot of younger people out there that are obviously struggling either with their identity or their sexuality. I've just got to, I suppose, I know it's hard, but I've just got to try and take that step and put themselves out there, I suppose, and hope that it goes well for them. Absolutely, it is about taking a big step and starting the conversation. If it's not with their family, with their friends, those that they can know that they have the support with them, it is very important to take those steps. And I've been so lucky as well, working for an organisation that has such a strong strategy for diversity and inclusion, and I feel very safe and welcomed at work and have had no issues at all being myself. And I'm also very lucky to have two openly gay colleagues as well, so it's really great to be able to just be myself and bring my true self to work and helping the community without having to hide who I am. It's been really, really amazing. So I feel very lucky and privileged to be in that position. Yeah, you've really struck gold there in that work group you've got down there. And the QPS, it gets better video. Remember that one? You saw that one as well. Like that's just such a compelling, a bucket of video and it's just fantastic, but it sort of made me feel better after watching that, knowing that you'll be okay, but, you know. Absolutely. Obviously you're a strong, smart, resilient person that, you know, I know you're gonna be able to cope, but, you know, like it's just one of those things that, you know, you just always have in the back of your head, but you'll be good starting out a new career. Absolutely. And New South Wales Police has been so supportive and even through the training process, they've been giving us the opportunity to learn about diversity and inclusion within the organisation and it just feels so comforting knowing that I have that support around me by the organisation and I feel like those colleagues that might be in a position where they feel like they can't be their true self, they know that they have the support there if they just reach out and ask for it. So it's been an amazing experience thus far and I feel very grateful for all my friends and family for being so supportive of me and yeah, can't say anything else. It's just fantastic and I love everyone so much. It's so good. What are you doing for work, Purple Day today, Isaiah? It's a bit hard with COVID running on Muck and New South Wales to have any big celebrations, but we're just having conversations within the station and within the community locally, just raising awareness really. How about you? I've made wear it purple cupcakes. Oh really? Yeah. Tried to blend the coloured dyes to make purple and did purple cream, purple cake. I'm here so I'll share them amongst the crew and give them a bit of a purple day spiel and yeah, hopefully they'll go over well. I'm sure they're very tasty. Yeah, I hope so. Fingers crossed. Well, I'll let you go then, enjoy the rest of your day. No worries, thank you. Stay safe. Thank you. Love you. Love you too. We'll talk to you soon. That was good, Dad. Bye. See you later. See you, sweet boy. Bye.
