And so it kind of forced me to really, number one, find my foundation, like what I really believed and how I really believed. felt about life and who I was and purpose and the entire thing. But I found out like people just love to connect. And so it's just become almost a skill set, an art form that I've just gotten better and better and better at is communicating with human beings.

And it's like, I really, it sounds funny, but if it can't be explained on a whiteboard or like with crayons, it's too complicated.
