So if you could share one insightful piece of advice with our audience, what would that be?
Just to quickly comment on what you said. That's exactly part of my motivation to do what I'm doing is to. To create that legacy of autonomy for myself and my kids so that we're not reliant on anyone. Because I. I see this major shift happening and want to decouple us from. From that to. To have that freedom and peace of mind. The one thing I share is if you don't know your neighbors, if you can't tell me you know any personal information about your neighbor, then I think that's a sign that you should make an effort to. To get to know your neighbors. Start building your own community. Start creating that support network and that positive ripple effect by you're outside, you see your neighbor cutting the grass. Like, go put a cold beer at the. At the line so that they see it and they stop and you guys can share a drink. Could be a cold bottle, water, anything. I'm just using it as an example. I don't want to promote alcohol and drinking all 50 is make the effort to create that connection because it starts. It really starts there. And something I didn't realize, not having extended family growing up, how much I wanted to have that. And, And I've created that in my community. I'm very close with my neighbors and, And I did just that was new neighbors moved in, invite them over. Neighbors cutting the grass. Just staked. Staked a beer there he stopped and we shared a moment, got to know each other and have become really close friends. Where my car had to get dropped off to the mechanic. My neighbor will drive me over. I'm headed to the airport for business and my cat said, I just text one of my neighbors who have keys saying, hey, the cat's out. Can you let him in when he's ready? And. And it's this beautiful community, extended family. I really see it as. As family.
And that's how it should be.
It should be. And. And create your own village.
Yeah, I think that's beautiful. So where can people find you? Where's the best way to get in touch with you?
