I think I was also trying to help our industry and working with the government and trying to get...

payroll for like, and getting our industry to be considered as big as the food industry or the airline industry, because we're talking about over 14 million jobs.

Being able to have a company that can be responsible for positive change is something that is very inspiring to me.

That's why I started our company, is not only to be financially independent, because that was part of it, but it was also how can we impact as many people as we possibly can.

And I would say that came from me since I was a very little girl.

I've always wanted to help people.

I grew up in a kind of crazy environment of...

My parents taking so many different kinds of people in, never knowing who's going to be at the dinner table, like having a kennel of German shepherds.

We had 50 shepherds.

My parents would have all these kind of crazy people come.

And so I just saw a lot of interesting, different kind of people.

And I also saw a lot of people who struggled.

My little brother who he adopted, he came with his mother.

She had schizophrenia.

So I saw a lot of the hardship of mental illness and what that meant.

And so I've always wanted to give back.

And I thought if the company could do that, that's such a win.

It's such a win for the bottom line also.

Yeah, I mean, well, it was my business plan from day one.

So for me, that was something that was in my head.
