Well, thank you for having me, Phil. This is really an honor and a privilege. It sounds so good. I love how you said all that. I really appreciate the introduction.

It is my pleasure. When reading your bio, I could only, only make sure that I did it justice because you have done a wonderful career helping people not only as a registered nurse but also as a coach. So it's my hats off to you. I'm I'm so excited to hear how you went from registered nurse to entrepreneur to coach and all the things you're doing. So without further ado, the best and most brightest question we ask here on the show is why? Why did you become an entrepreneur after being a registered nurse for so long?

Right. It's a process and a journey and wisdom comes with age. So it's easier to to reflect on it looking backward sometimes. I love my nursing career, and I really wanted to make a difference in a different way. Much of my career was in psychiatric mental health nursing, and I really, understood that the strategies and tools that we have in that modality in the medical realm, weren't as effective as I would like them to be. And I would rather be proactive in helping people live from their strengths, discover them their strengths, you know, see see what potential they have, you know, rather than, you know, using some of the tools that psychiatry has to offer. So, yeah, that I, you know, like, serendipity does. A email landed in in my inbox from Mary Morris.

It's it was called the Life Mastery Institute at the time to consider being a dream builder coach, And I explored that and I was obviously, it was just like, yes, you know, deep down inside me, it was a, yes, this is it. This is what I wanna do. So I embarked on it with a big dream, which is what entrepreneurs do. Right?

Yeah. We're big dream
