"That moment for me was ," Barron said. "I was confused about what was next for me on the journey, but me being here and being blessed, I'm being where my feet are. That loss and that feeling right there, people don't like feeling that. In order to not feel that you have to take one day at a time and move with a mindset of not having regret. I'm glad we had that taste last year because now we have the opportunity to work every single day to not have that taste again.
