| 0:21.0 | So I'm going to take this mustache off though. Oh, fuck. All right, there we go. I don't even really need it. I basically have a mustache. So let's jump in. What's up guys? Seeing some familiar faces. But I want to start just with, again, for those of you guys were just joining, we're going to talk about mental health. And I'm going to open up with you guys about a few stories and some recent incidences, which have caused me to go into a little bit of a spiral. And just last week I had to open up to our entire team. |
| 0:23.2 | I went to like all the leaders in our team and basically expressed that, hey, I'm going to |
| 0:27.0 | have to start to reprioritize my mental health for the betterment of the whole company |
| 0:31.4 | and for myself, right? |
| 0:32.3 | Because I've obviously stopped doing that for a period of time where I put everybody |
| 0:37.4 | else's needs in front of mine. |
| 0:38.7 | Maybe some of you guys can relate, especially as you're growing a team or you're a coach, |
| 0:41.6 | you have clients, you have employees, and people who rely upon you can become very, very stressful at times. |

| 1:32.4 | between different family members and stuff. |
| 1:34.4 | You know, I'm going to end up a drug addict. |
