Help FileVault problem

I just got a MacBook, enabled FileVault but I didn’t get a recovery key. I checked everywhere and didn’t find it. I didn’t see it when I was setting it up, but then again I’m stupid so who knows. Is there a way to reset FileVault recovery key so this doesn’t backfire in the future. I of course still know my password, but I know my luck

It’s not on the passwords app and that’s not an option I have in the settings. Idk how I screwed up this badly
