And who am I becoming because of this?

And I think that's just such a powerful thing.

Yeah, yeah, it was incredible.

And that's also a reminder to people listening because you will make mistakes.

Yes, I didn't know about the founder's agreement.

I made a lot of mistakes, but the truth is, thank God I didn't have a founder's agreement because I would have been stuck in this minutia thing that actually went down, like it basically exploded a few months later.

Wow.

I'm honored.

So again, the idea, the mission of Leap Academy is to take driven professionals that want more for themselves or individuals that want more for themselves or feel stuck or know that there's more to them and really understand that clarity, understand who they are, what their story is.

And instead, I had to lean into figuring things out.

And that became my purpose.

That became my mission.

That became Leap Academy.

That became everything I do now.

So to some extent, a reminder to everybody, your darkest moment,

how to build that brand, how to open the right doors so that they can either land the right opportunity for themselves or switch to a new industry or switch to a new function or start a business.

Again, it's always darkest before sunrise.

And it's very, very likely that this is your teaching moment to actually reflect and actually put you on a journey that will change the second part of your life.

Because again, I wanted to gain the income, the reputation, the balance, the impact that they deserve to have and live the best version of themselves.

So the question is not why is this happening to me, but what should I learn from it?
