And then also, I think that in terms of dealing with someone who has suicidal urges or fantasies or concerns, that I think coaches are supposedly not supposed to be dealing with those patients. Are there any other... Psychosis...

Thank you so much for explaining that. I'm really glad you were able to delineate that. And Lorna, you're in Angela's Masterclass and Mentoring Program. What's that like for you?

Yeah, I never found seeing patients to be tiring or exhausting. For me, 100% of the time is the more patients I saw on a day, the higher I got.

It was like getting shot in the stomach by a bowling ball or a cannon or something like that. And but but, you know, it's it is not true that seeing working with people who are depressed could be depressing. They cannot possibly depress you because it goes back to Epictetus. The only thing that can make you happy or unhappy are your own thoughts about what happens.

What you're interacting with, the events don't cause our feelings. It's our interpretation. It's what we're telling ourselves, the narrative about those events.

Because I think, oh, my God, do I have a lot to give this person? This is going to be a tremendous positive experience. I get all kind of excited because that's my interpretation of that situation. Yeah.
