I was functional, but there was a version of me within that I couldn't gain access to because of all that stuff. So like your audience, I go looking for help and I get some insights. I get some awareness. I get some knowledge. I get some tips and tools. But after 10 years, it just, it wasn't gone. I was still doing it. And I, I thought it was my fault.

I thought, I guess this is as good as life gets. Yeah. And not only was I sad and probably depressed and really not living the life I wanted to live, I was pissed. And I remember looking up to whoever's up there pulling the strings. And I was just said, I just said, hey, what do you want from me? I just spent 10 years working on myself and I'm still doing this. This is a test. But what's the test?

What do you want? And I was just being rhetorically angry. I didn't expect an answer from above, but I got an answer. And that answer was results matter. And I had to have a really sad realization that this 10 years that I'd spent with therapists, psychologists, spiritual teachers, these are well-intentioned people.

They mean well, they have some knowledge, but like, let's be honest, results matter. Not great results. 10 years, $100,000 spent, and I'm still doing this. That's not good results. If you go to a doctor with a broken leg, and 10 years later, you're like, wow, I'm gaining a lot of awareness around my broken leg. I'm learning to journal about my broken leg.

I have this vision board where I'm salsa dancing again. It's like, that's not great results. And I just said... It's because the Improvement Industrial Complex has well-intentioned people, but they don't solve things. They're not built for that. They're teachers. They're not innovators. And I am. I'm an engineer. And so I said, well, maybe I'll apply my gifts.
