| 0:00.0 | And so I started to uncover some things that, okay, I'm starting to unfold a story here and realizing that there were some people things going on and like multiple things. |
| 0:08.3 | Stayed up all night. And I was very emotional and I was drinking wine and like just kind of going on a tirade. |
| 0:14.0 | And I created this Google Doc where for me it was kind of brain dumping and trying to draw corollaries like so what the problem actually was. |
| 0:20.5 | And it was like this 15 page Google doc |
| 0:22.7 | with stuff that I never expected anybody to see. |
| 0:25.0 | Well, I'm a dumb ass. |
| 0:26.3 | And you know, on a Google doc, you can tag people, right? |
| 0:29.0 | You can attack people in like a comment as an action item or whatever. |
| 0:31.4 | Well, I did that with Liv and Travis on a few points |

| 1:21.3 | passed away. And it was a really just a traumatic experience. And we're in the hospital for a week. And not to get into it, but he had a |
| 1:28.2 | massive heart attack. He was basically on life support for a week. We had to make a really hard |
| 1:31.8 | decision to let him off life support. It was terrible. Then right after that, Jackson was born. |
