I sacrifice my mental health because of taking on other people's trauma.
Being a leader, a good leader should be exhausting.
And I, you know, I always just want my people to be physically and mentally and medically strong.
OK, and healthy.
And so all of that combined, the reason I guess I come back every day is because I don't feel like I'm done making this place better than when I found it.
And I have such a great core group of people around me.
I have a great team where I work now.
I had a great team at my past agency.
My husband is phenomenal.
He's such an incredible support system.
I think I'm trying to be the best example I can for my children.
Like, you can do whatever you want in this world.
And you can make an impact.
And people might not agree with what you have to say or how you do it.
But if at the heart of what you do helps someone's life be a little bit better, that's positive.
That's an impact.
That's worthy of a good life.
Thank you very much for having me.
