millions of subscribers and we sold to the private equity in 2018. But all those, some working on

founding teams and finally founding my own company, tons of lessons and understanding of all the things

that go into starting something, building something, growing it, scaling it. And there's a lot of

sympathy and empathy I have with founders because the last thing is when a board member comes in

from 80,000 feet is like,

ah, you should just do this. Like it's easy. I know all the sleepless nights and the changes and the

scrambling that goes on when you say that. And a lot of time, I don't think investors are thoughtful

enough about how they come in and what they're thinking about or they haven't sat in the seat.

So they don't understand the ramifications of what tactically it will take to do what they're asking.

And so having had and sat in those seats and had those experiences, I think allows me to connect

dots and work with founders a lot more closely.
