Wow. What an introduction. Thank you so much, Phil. I'm excited to be here with you in the audience, today.

I I just wanna start off, like, the fact that you're an RVer is awesome because that's something I've always looked into, like, you know, van life. You you know, a smaller version of RVing because I don't have a family to drive around or a partner. It's just me, so a van is perfect. But, like, I wanna know what really got you into the world of, entrepreneurship? What made that spark happen?

You know, it's so interesting. I ultimately, I say I'm a terrible employee. And so I didn't have another option. If I wanna make money and I'm a terrible employee, then I need to have my own business. Right? The long story is is my dad I grew up around it. My dad always owned several businesses. He worked for somebody else, but always was starting new businesses. And it's just the life that I thought was that everybody had.

Right? Like, I didn't know any different. And there's a lot of story that goes along with that and how owning multiple businesses, you know, how I learned from him and how I started out in my journey, how it was actually a detriment to our finances. But what I've learned, has actually sparked now this multi creative, you know, business model that we have where now my husband and I have multiple businesses again, but it's in, really of benefit to our finances. So, ultimately, I just say I'm a terrible employee. I've always cared about other people's businesses more than they cared about them, and I thought I need to be my own business owner. Makes life maybe a little bit simpler for me.

I like that. You're and plus you're not bumping heads. Saying, we need to do this, and they're like, no. And you're like, but it will save the business.

That's exactly my husband, you know, said he said, Sarah, he goes, you always, like, ride these sinking ships to the bottom of the sea. You know? It's time to jump off and, you know, kinda build your own. And so, I just have this heart for business owners, and I think that's why I care so much about you know, when I worked for small businesses, I care about making their businesses profitable, and I care about them as humans. Like, owning your own business is not for the faint of heart. Right? It's it's a beautiful thing, but it's not for the faint of heart. And and there's so much about owning a business that we're just simply not taught, and I just have a heart for small business owners.
