a hundred percent um so so tell us what uh what are you excited about here you know this is icbc berlin what are you excited about uh with with europe and and and what's happening right now

Yeah, I mean, I think I think all markets are generally the same, especially in a highly regulated market.

Right.

And so well i guess what i'd say is we're we see the same trends happening it's the same kind of market dynamics even though you have multiple countries here yeah i'm i'm excited to see that europe has opened up

What is it?

Yeah, I mean, it depends on where people are within their company.

But I think really having the easiest thing is having targeted revenues and goals and aligning your sales teams around those with geographical markers as well as product or service offerings.

So kind of targeting that.

So Rachel, what's happening?

Well, we've been watching large crowds of black-clad mourners outside Tehran's main mosque.

They've come to pay their respects to Iran's former leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

His body is currently lying in state at the Grand Mosul.

Authorities expect 15 to 20 million people to attend the ceremonies across Iran and Iraq over the coming days, which take place more than four months after Hamani was killed in US and Israeli airstrikes.

Massives of supporters have turned out, reportedly chanting slogans against the US and in support of revenge for the Ayatollah's killing, which also killed members of his family.

Notably, his son and successor, Mojtaba, has not been seen at the funeral or in fact at all since those airstrikes.

And why are these African nationals being repatriated?

Match made in heaven

... oh my God.

[laughs] And at the time he had not told anybody about his bisexuality.

It was like this really wonderful bonding experience.

Um so he and I were toget- we were monogamous for a while, and then we decided to be poly, and along the way we met many different people.

Um and it culminated in being in a polycule with two other people.

It was four of us.

Hmm

[laughs]

Exactly, but, but it's true.

It's like I, I...

You can spend so much energy on fighting a life that you expected to have, or you can stop and sit and decide, like with your kids, decide which battles are the ones you're gonna choose.

And I found so early on that I was fighting injustices and falling down these rabbit warrens of rights and wrongs, and I had to stop and really address where are my values as an individual, as a family? What is it we wanna really prioritize, and how do I, what do I need to do to make that happen? And just let, I, I just had to let go of some of the failings, the inconsistencies because I can spe- everything comes at a cost.

I only have a certain number of hours.

I only have a certain number of Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and I either spend it doing this and think, "Nothing's gonna change," or I take control of what I can control.

... where can people go?
