That's a great question, by the way, to ask yourself. It's really powerful.

But I think you said something really, really critical because it is so hard. Like I remember when I wanted to start Leap Academy, one of the first things that I'd done, you know, I was just like Googling and I'm like the average coach. And again, I don't really see myself as a coach. I never studied coaching. I just leaped in my career and I wanted to get more people to learn that.

And then I hired coaches, right? But I see myself more as a business person. But when I search for the average salary of a coach is like $40,000 a year. This is it, right? So it's just like, is this a good idea? I don't know. That could scare you, right? Or if you look at podcasts, there's probably millions of podcasts. Like, would I start a new podcast? What is my chance?

But again, you can't look at that because it will just stop you on your tracks. So what you have to do is think really with yourself, what is it that is important for me? What would I regret if I don't take action on? And then just lean on your why. And I think that's just so, so, so important, Brian, that you mentioned that. But I do want to take you to those ultra...

crazy challenges because I think I shared with you something I usually never share. It's nowhere on my bios or anything. Like when I was about, I want to say 20-ish, 25, I thought I was going to be a mountaineer. So that was my thing. It was not my zone of genius. So everybody's very grateful that I didn't pursue that. But I did go after all sort of really exciting peaks.

And it was so exhilarating. It was so exciting. I will never forget. Like Nepal is like my favorite place on the planet. You know what I'm saying? Like I loved it. But your things are a little more crazy. So take me there. Why? How do you even train to that? Running the Sahara Desert, running the Arctic. You're doing things that are just not like the rock and roll marathon. How did you even start?
