She had an expert sense of how do I get through the grind. She knew the life that she wanted. She had recently gone through a divorce. She had what any of us would count on paper zero experience, but But she said, but I have really valuable life experience. So she created this program on resiliency that happened to come out before COVID and ended up licensing into multiple school districts here in Southern California, like Santa Ana School Districts that went to their teachers. Wow. From nothing, just from, I have gotten through this. I've literally physically picked myself up off the floor and I know that what I have gone through can help other people. So that was one of 'em and it was just mind-blowing.
