I get that question.
I've gotten that question so many times.
It never got ugly.
We worked together for seven or eight years, and we are massively different personalities.
My co-founder, Cheyenne, is more of an engineer.
I am more of a creative business person.
But what happened is basically I think the key to us being able to work together was we kind of had different โ
uh, sort of like domain expertise and we respected each other's domain expertise.
So we defer to the other person.
It was business strategy versus, you know, I mean, an engineering called both of us.
knew about the other domain, but we knew that also the other person is better at that particular field.
So, you know, that's how we work together.
It worked very well.
So one of the things that, yeah, sure.
So we brought in a new CEO.
Actually, he was at the time a CFO and COO of the company.
And the direction that the company had to go at that moment of time was we had grown it really rapidly all the way to 2014, but the company was not profitable.
Not a lot.
I want to say maybe 10 million.
