The conference that I met you at our mega marketing magic. I know I put that on a credit card. And I was telling you this the other night I actually had, because I was so in debt when I was starting my business and I had to stay with a stranger in a hotel room. And she was perfectly sweet, but I had found her on, like, some message board because I couldn't afford my own room. But this notion of investing in yourself by putting yourself in environments that expose you to people who are where either you want to be or you admire the kind of things that they've created, you admire other, you know, some of what they have put out into the world. Like, being in those spheres is so valuable. And it's like, I know this is kind of trite, but I just do want to remind people, whether it's Joe or myself or anyone else, when you find an energetic alignment and there's an opportunity to go learn with that person virtually in person, however you can get close to them. Invest in yourself, because you are your number one asset in life. And like.
