This generation, if you look at it in the aggregate until the pandemic, which was a pretty mentally and emotionally scarring time for a lot of people, generations prior had been through some big world event or life event that triggered the resilience bug or button.
And so I think it was taken for granted.
And so I think that would be one thing.
It's just, we need people to be resilient.
We need to help them build resilience.
so that they're ready to take on the challenges of the future.
That's one thing that I would say, again, we need more of.
And if I could gift it to the world, I would gift it to the world.
It's sort of a dichotomy, right?
So you've got a generation that's never had more opportunity to explore their passions and pursue their passions with the shared economy.
Everyone can be an influencer.
There's so many ways to earn a living, quote unquote.
And I'm so envious of Gen Z because of their fearlessness with regards to that.
You know, we thought graduate from college, go backpack around Europe for a few months and then come back and then get a job.
right?
And get a job and stability and a paycheck and a 401k and, you know, all that kind of stuff.
And that was just how we were taught and how we were brought up and, you know, go get that job and go get that stability.
And that's just not the way they think.
They think, you know, multiple jobs.
I want to do what I love.
