And I, you know, this hustle culture and making money and I don't have time to, you know, meditate and I don't have time to do all these other, I have no other coping mechanisms.

drink until I passed out every night.
And, uh, I knew there was like this idea in my head.
My brother had gone to AA, um, a few years before I quit.
And I, you know, when, you know, when someone else does it, you just kind of know you're like, Oh shit.

I thought, you know, this is my life.

I'm sure what happened to you was life changing to you when I got an offer from a private equity company to sell my practice.
And the minute those conversations started, I knew I had to change something because I had never not been in school or not worked an obscene amount.

I've never had a nine to five job.
