It was great.
It was fun.

It's a part of who I am.
Not really...
It started as a business to make money, but it's turned into kind of who I am, starting as a learning disabled student with dyslexia and turning into that's the population we serve.
We serve the students with disabilities.
So it's been a very cool evolution.
We are.
Man, you know, in the education space right now, it's the.
It's crazy how much anxiety... I've been a psych for 28 years, and so I have watched it go from where autism was never even discussed, and now we're diagnosing autism constantly.
And I would say since COVID, we have seen such an elevation in the anxiety that students experience.
It's insane.
And it's real and there's just not a lot of support for them because it's kind of new to a lot of the pieces of education where we haven't really had to deal with it that much in the past.
So, you know, kind of re equipping ourselves to be able to deal with this rise of anxiety, depression, social, emotional concerns in general has been a bit of a challenge, but it's rewarding because
underneath all of that anxiety are kids who really, you know, they're amazing kids.
And we just need to kind of get past a lot of this.
Yeah, that's actually a really great question.
And it's something that I think a lot of people have had to kind of struggle with.
