Same thing with employees. We've been burned so many times as employers or leaders. I always tell this to people that we get fired more than anyone. Like when. When someone is being fired, that employer fires that person. But as employers, when people quit every time we get fired and it hurts and when they sue, it's so personal and. Oh, God. Yeah. And so it's. You get to a point where you get jaded, and that's where I know I got jaded at a certain point, but that's when again, where coaching really stepped in and helped. But I love this discussion because what it's evolved into is under helping understand that leaders primary job is to build more leaders. So when we're too busy treating, we're not creating space to create connection. And like, you're obviously a connection leader, which goes really well in healthcare. People don't care what you know till they know you care and all those things. So as you're spending time developing those relationships, you're, you know, retaining talent, which is recruiting, insurance. You're. You're also building people, you're also giving them a, you know, an opportunity.
