And I do think that something happens in midlife where you all of a sudden realize, I'm not immortal.

And that sounds so silly, but I think when you're 20 or 30...

It's not on your mind.

Yes.

And that that feeling of like, I think midlife, what is my purpose now?

I'm seeing a lot of women, friends who are early 50s and they are living their best life.

Like, I love that.

I love that.

And so I feel like, you know, you know, what's really interesting, your viewpoint on aging determines your lifespan.

So people who have a positive view of aging on average are living five to seven years longer.

And I'm going to check the stats and get back to you on that.

But people, when they looked at them, like, do you think that aging is a good thing as opposed to are you scared of it?

Are you afraid that you're going to be a shriveled old person?

People who say, I'm looking forward to it.

So even just like this is where the optimism comes in is having optimism really is just positive life expectation, right?
