And so went back and hung around the same people, start drinking again, just like I was everything kind of, you know, went back to normal, same old thing. Right. Well, then I said, okay, well, I'm going to get back into fitness because the 75 hard was the thing that kept me clean and sober. And I wasn't a raging alcoholic. I was just like everybody else, right?

And so I did a couple of half Ironmans and that worked. I'm like, perfect. I'm focused on that. I'm not drinking as much, you know, more focused on business, being a better dad, better communicator. Well, then all that stuff I just told you happened with the bleeding of the money, the company, the interest rates going through the roof. And eventually I just came to my wits end.

And I just, my dad also died at 73, just not too long ago, like a year before. And he started drinking at 50 years old and did all that damage by the time he was like 65. Right. Just like heavy drinking. Right. And I just realized like I just looked inside myself and I saw my daughters like they're going to follow whatever I do. Yeah. I was literally sitting on my boat.
