Kim Poirier:
You gotta keep at it, you know, I've had moments where you know I lost my sense of hope or I lost my, my will to live and I, and I just, I didn't see any light. You know, but you gotta keep going, you gotta keep at it and you, you gotta, you have to trust.

Himself - Host:

Kim Poirier:
Erm I've had supportive teachers, I've had supportive, er, mentors, I've had erm some good friends erm you know, yeah, the friends weren't always there, [she cries and wipes her tear] you know, when you change friends as you go through different things in life. But, I just knew that there was something else, you know, and you pray.

Himself - Host:
Okay.

Kim Poirier:
You meditate.
