Yeah. And he's been super supportive. A lot of the risks I was able to take was also because he was in a stable full-time job with health insurance and everything. So I was like, all right, I'm going part-time now that we have the baby. And then I was like, now I'm going to go to a startup. Or, you know, I was able to do all of that stuff because I knew I had like a support system.

I think personally, ever since I got my kid, my first kid, I kind of found more purpose in life and I wanted to do something out of the box and kind of be a role model to her as well. So I just don't want to do a nine to five for 30 years and then realize that I missed out on something. So I wanted to try out being an entrepreneur and see how that journey goes.

I think the flexibility was my first motivator. With the time as a new mom, that was my primary goal. But eventually, obviously, it's the money, the flexibility, the happiness. To be able to see success and failure quickly and then iterate upon that and have control. I just don't want a boss controlling my career. I want to control my career on my own.

The goal is, I think in a year or so, we're going to have to try to scale by bringing in people who, right now the brand, unfortunately, is just me and him.

So we need to build that trust with our customers and be able to train people. So it might be a journey, so we don't know what that is or what it looks like, so we'd have to train people and bring them to the level where like, hey, these are the software engineers we trust. slowly start scaling that way.
