But my body didn't, and I think that's just something admins don't really take on, is that we are in this constant state of that, particularly if you're working at a C-suite level.
13:41
Yeah.
13:41
I think humans, we're such amazing creatures.
13:44
Like, we can literally think of something and create an, a stress response.
13:49
We can think about a rollercoaster, and we can get the, the nervous butterflies that you get when you go down a rollercoaster.
13:58
We have dreams and nightmares where we feel like it's the, the real thing.
14:02
And it's the exact same stress response that happens, whether it's in your head and it's, it, if you perceive that it's real, or if it's actually happening, you've got a saber-toothed tiger in front of, like, of you.

13:10
But honestly, like... what I've come to realize is how important it is to the other communities, the other countries, like Polly mentioned, Cape Verde, things like that.
13:21
Those are the stories that get you, you know, we want to be the best at everything in the United States.
13:26
And oftentimes we think we are the best at everything, but it's a good reminder that, that we got a lot of work to do, right? There's got a lot of work to do.
13:34
And I think it's important to know that like, now you're asking Padres fans this, right? Like, Hey, did we do good? Well enough.
