I, so, well, I, I found a very intriguing, um, What were those early years like before the success came for you? Was it a struggle or was it happy? A happy challenge?

I can say that.

And it was a little bit of a struggle.

Financially, I didn't have to worry because I had my husband's income and benefits.

That helps a lot.

Yes, it does.

A big relief.

Because I do see a lot of agents coming into this.

And then some of them don't make it because they have to put food on the table.

They have to pay their mortgage or rent.

And it's really difficult.

if they don't have the resources because sometimes you can go a month without

or more

or more without getting that so it so I'm I was thankful that I had that support

what was the happy challenge can you remember one challenging transaction that you had to where you almost it made you wonder if you should quit Did you share one? I'm pretty sure you had a share.

Oh, gosh, so

But at the very beginning, it was difficult.
