One thing, Jan, I wanted to reflect on for you is, as we're talking about plans, is, and I'm sure you're aware of it, healthy people, the objectives for the nation, 2030. Okay, so one of our dear colleagues, Nico Prank, was one of the co-chairs in developing the national objectives for the nation. How was it leading the health departments Were we engaged in that or are we engaged in it?
Or is it just a function of being aware that these objectives exist and hopefully whatever work that we do at the state can complement that? So how is it that we embraced the objectives for the nation?

So Jan, all right. So, all right. So now you've retired from, from the health department. Let's talk about just for, you know, maybe the final thoughts here. Knowledge transferred. How do you transfer your knowledge as a leader to a new leader? Or maybe not. Is it just an assumption that, okay, somebody else is going to be appointed, you know, in this case, commissioner. And thank you very much.

You know, Jan, it feels as though in many ways, we've shared a lot of history together. You know, we've gone down, you know, perhaps different public health paths, but it's always been complimentary. You know, like you were president of the Minnesota Public Health Association, as was I. And those are dear, dear colleagues that you can always count on for insight and encouragement.

One thing I can say from my perspective to you is you always provided, whether or not you realized it or not, either directly or even indirectly encouragement to me as a colleague. And I greatly, greatly appreciate that. I I've come to realize that perhaps that is the ultimate form of leadership, is providing constant encouragement, trust with one another.
