Yeah.
So like I said, far from being self made, my family developed a resort called Tethero Resort.
It's a beautiful, stunning resort.
They started with a dream and then
over a 15 year period, they were able to bring that to life.
And it's just a stunning resort.
Learned a ton from what it takes to have big dreams first and foremost, right?
Like to have such a big dream to make that happen.
That's step one.
And then step two to actually execute on that.
I got to watch my parents do that over time.
And that taught me both work ethic, it taught me vision, and it just taught me what it takes to actually go after something and to have an extremely high standard, right?
You don't become the number one resort in the Pacific Northwest by having an average standard.
So they set an extremely high standard, both in the product that they built and the operation that they brought.
And I just got to watch that unfold.
I got to be a
small part of it on the operational side as well but mainly just got to see what that looked like and and so having mentors like that helped set a really high standard and then we just followed that and really worked to become a little bit better every day is really the ultimate goal we try to live the growth mindset try to hold a really hard high standard for ourselves and so it's it's been far from an easy journey but it's definitely been worth going through that and um
You know, again, it's it all comes down to having both great mentors and then great people as well.
Right.
Having people who are far better than I could ever be in the position that they're in.
