Availability and coverage vary by state and insurance plan.

Okay, so when we get this from the shop, it's really just the embroidered applique pieces and just some of the beads.

And so what Veronica's doing is she's going through and she's adding all of these clusters so that it goes back to what the original design was, which was way more, it was supposed to sort of be like armor.

Very like sort of just big and, you know.

Oh.

We finally figured it out.

But remember, you were the first one who had that design, so we didn't know what all those issues were.

Would you like to say a few words?

words?Uh, yes, yeah, a small correction.

Uh, I believe it was f- first place in the team category.

[laughs]

[laughs]

[laughs] No, I will, I will say yes.

Yeah, USC took all three places.

I think the other two, uh, teams aren't here today 'cause their members are from out of state originally, so they aren't part of this section officially.

Help from your phone?

phone?I was on the, the line with my ex, and she was, she was on the, the line with us the whole time.

[laughs]

No, I, I was talking to Angie.

I, I did whisper, "Good job," because I thought that we were gonna get to go on another date-

In, in your, in your life from, from the algorithm king to all of these, the, to billions of dollars of, of ads and, and revenue you've put through doing what you did, and explain to people listening w- where you are today and what your plan is and what your next goal is and, and how you're, I believe, making a difference.

So I think it was a, two things that were happening simultaneously.

One was, for most of my life, as long as I can remember, maybe it's 'cause I didn't come from much, um, I was deeply involved in the personal development world.So I like, I read all the books, I attended all the events, I went to all the conferences, like everything I could to, to personally develop even more, I, I did.

And in the midst of that, I still found that the vast majority of things that I was doing, despite following all the check boxes and whatever, was not necessarily leading to the life and the fulfillment that I was looking for.

So there was like, there was that, that was the undercurrent of what was going on.

There was also the realization that like even when we were coaching and, and helping businesses, I could give two almost identical businesses the exact same strategy and help them out the exact same way, and yet one would take that and fly to the moon and 10X their business and do all these fancy great amazing things on paper, and the other person will still feel stuck.

And as a, as a student of like human psychology, I was like, "What? W- how, how can two people get the exact same recipe and one make a delicious cake and another person make a disaster? Like, how does that...

Um, like take me through, take me through that process of, of what a person goes through and, and kind of what you've seen or gone through and what those people have seen look- coming through the other side.

Yeah.

And then we dug deeper into our finances, and we were like, "Wow, we're in a mess." Um, and so we started chipping away at the credit cards.

Um, we did side hustles.

Uh, she was makin'- she started making, like, hair bows for little girls, selling those.

Um, I did DoorDash for a while.

Um, and we started selling stuff just around the house.

And, and Rachel, you'll relate to this.

... and they're just normal, living life, but they're feeling like, "Oh my gosh, we wanna change." What would you say the key of getting out of debt is?

Here are the authors to introduce their story.

Hi, I'm Nicholas, and I'm 11 years old.

And I'm Daniel, and I'm six years old.

And we're from Eswatini.

This is our story, Gorblefunks.

I got you this.

For me? Thanks, Cullen.

Wow, it's a- Gorblefunk! [laughs] Oh, Gorblefunk.

when you found out that Tracie was arrested, what was going through your mind? Did you believe it was possible?

It had to be her.

Everybody else I knew that knew him, liked him...

I mean, she was the only one who had anything against him, really.

You saw the gun?

Yeah.

He showed it to me just to, you know, make sure I was okay with it.
