What does your day-to-day look like as a CEO? My favorite part about that role was that no day felt or looked the same. I was the COO for a long time. I should have always been continuing the COO role, 'cause the COO role was really what I did was it was all remote, but I had a lot of travel and we can get into that. I have an awesome little historic office where I live. But no, it was, dude, it was sometimes team meetings all day long. Sometimes it was looking at Looms all day long. Sometimes it was just voice memos back and forth and it was very relaxed. There was no day that was the same. Was ever like. Sometimes it was traveling out and doing, you know, lunches or dinners with Iman and someone else or such, and there was nothing that was ever the same.
