Hello and welcome to the latest episode of Building a Business, Grit and Grace with me, Anna Angelova, business coach and consultant. And today I have the pleasure of talking with Daniel Krikorian. Hi, Daniel.
Daniel, welcome to the show. I’m doing great. I’m doing great and.
Daniel Krikorian 0:20
How you doing? Thank you very much.
Anna Angelova 0:27
Let’s start with introducing you. Share a little bit about who you are and what you do.
Daniel Krikorian 0:32
Sure, absolutely. So as you said, my name is Dan Krikorian. I am based out of Massachusetts here in the States and.
A long story of how I got here and what I do, but ultimately in 2020 my life changed, as many people did with COVID, and I ended up getting into the wedding event space. You know, was sitting on my hands, got asked to do photography for a wedding.
Went there, got, you know, my first five-star view and really didn’t quite understand why I got a five-star view as a first time photographer at a wedding. I had done photography before, but this was this was a big deal and the.
Inquiry started flooding in. I grabbed a few friends, taught them how to shoot, really built, bought the equipment for them, and we did 146 weddings the first year. Yeah, second year we do 447.
Anna Angelova 1:30
Oh.
Daniel Krikorian 1:35
Third year we add on DJ, we add on coordination planning and we get up to 876 and you know in the 4th year we hit 1200 and when we hit 1200 with 146.
Team members on our side, we started finding some serious cracks in the industry that ultimately led to the inability for us to grow, for us to take care of our couples properly.
Anna Angelova 2:06
Oh.
Daniel Krikorian 2:07
And I started thinking to myself, what was my real goal of of both this for myself and for my business? And that was to truly help vendors create a better experience for couples. Because what I ultimately realized was there were so many.
Companies out there, Wedding Wire, the nonzola, that are great companies that help the couple succeed. But I always found that the ultimate solution was not to be reactive, but to be proactive and to help the vendor succeed. Because when they succeed, when they have the organizational tools to.
Connectivity to the couple, everything that they need, they excel and then the couple gets a better experience. So this year we turned everything on our head. We took a massive risk and we built Be Remembered Studio and be remembered dot IO.
If you remember dot IO is a full wedding platform planning system for couples that also has a marketing system you know involved or I should say marketplace involved. And then we have the studio system which is a full.
Solution all-in-one solution for vendors to bring everything from their Google Sheets. You know that helps them manage to their payment software to their booking software all under one roof, even adding in their storage solution too.
So that’s what we we are now. And the goal is to really help vendors with this platform reduce their costs. Overall, they’re spending an asset amount of money on a software. Their goal, you know, our goal is to help them communicate better with the couple, create better experiences ultimately and it’s, you know, built by.
5 vendors, 4 vendors.
Anna Angelova 4:02
Oh, it sounds like such a journey. You mentioned 2020. It’s only five years ago.
Daniel Krikorian 4:06
Ha ha.
I know, I know. Yeah, it’s gone by very quickly. It feels like yesterday. And I mean, I’m sure so many businesses relate to this, but you know, we have continuously pivoted.
With the desire to just understand ourselves, I mean, I think when you buy a business, so much of the structure is already put in place and since we built it, we just, we had to learn so much.
Time and time again. And as you learn, you hit more and more barriers and you kind of understand, you know, the road ahead. And that’s it’s a really fun process, very stressful process for very fun if you make it that way and.
Yeah, it’s been a blessing, so.
Anna Angelova 5:01
Let’s take you back to to the beginning stages. What were you doing before you actually started the business?
Daniel Krikorian 5:04
Sure.
Yeah. So I was in, I was in sports broadcasting and yeah, I was in sports broadcasting. My background is actually marketing and psychology. So tie that one together. I’d love to hear it, but I’m in sports broadcasting. I enjoyed it.
I was traveling all over the US, actually the world even. We later wanted to build a production company. So we were going to focus on small business, mid-sized business, social media, commercials.
That takes a lot of money to start up. It also takes a lot of time to build that clientele that’s buying from you consistently and, you know, starting to pay down debt, put money in your pocket again and.
Just at the cusp of getting that all in order and feeling like we had our, you know, a business under our belt, COVID came in and wiped out all of our customers that you know are for small businesses. So that’s that’s that was my, that was my journey to this.
Anna Angelova 6:17
Interesting how I I was talking with someone else as well, how life kind of gives us the opportunity and you didn’t expect, you didn’t expect to come to a wedding to to do the.
Photo shoot and then uh start a business from there. But you took the opportunity, it came, you took it and sticking with the early days again like you mentioned someone asked you to do this and then you got a five star review which is fantastic and from there people started.
Daniel Krikorian 6:45
Mhm.
Hmm.
Anna Angelova 6:49
Asking you to to keep on doing this, those early clients, how did they come? Like how did you find them initially?
Daniel Krikorian 6:56
Hmm.
Yeah. So that’s actually, that’s kind of the funniest story of all because.
When we started our our production company, we were listed on this website called Thumbtack, which I don’t like to give them credit because Thumbtack ultimately I think is detrimental to businesses in a few ways, but.
We were listed under wedding and event because a lot of corporations would find us under that tagline. And so if they were looking for their holiday party to be photographed or filmed, they would find us. And then we’d say, hey, do you know we also offer XY&Z? And that was a good little way in.
Anna Angelova 7:34
Hmm.
Daniel Krikorian 7:47
So we never took that posting down during COVID. And so now we have couples who a lot of the photographers, videographers during COVID, they just took the government paycheck. They said, listen, weddings are stressful. This is a great time to sit back, relax, get paid the same amount we would get paid if we were at a wedding and.
Enjoy your time and family and I can’t blame them. But for me, I was an eager Beaver over here and I was like, oh, this is a an open market that everyone, no one’s available because they’re they shut themselves off. And here I am sitting there just open to the actual the work and and it flooded in.
And then one five star after another five star. The other thing we did too was we met the market where it was. There were a lot of six hour, 7 hour, 8 hour packages by these big photographers cause that’s what they always sold.
For us, we didn’t care. We did one in two hours and I I did 4 weddings in a day once. It was insane. So, Oh yeah, well, I drove. I drove what was there like three or four states that day. I started off in Connecticut, went to Rhode Island, No, three states. And then I did.
Anna Angelova 8:52
Well.
Daniel Krikorian 9:03
Two in Massachusetts to finish it. All like one hour packages. Whatever. It’s fun. Yeah, it was COVID, so you couldn’t do anything anyways. They were all outside. I love being outside. I went out there, you know, took my photos and went back home and edited them and shipped them out and people were.
Anna Angelova 9:09
Why not? Why not? Yeah.
Daniel Krikorian 9:22
We’re very happy and excited and so it was, it was a blast. That’s how it all got started.
Anna Angelova 9:30
Interesting again how how they could you said meeting the the market where it was and one thing that when you the business gets established is we kind of forget about those people who were there in the early stages like you said the package is now for six hours and we forget about.
Daniel Krikorian 9:35
Mhm.
Mhm.
Anna Angelova 9:50
Are the ones that want one hour and we stop stop serving them, which opens the door for the newcomers to come in and take their share. Continuing on the topic of, let’s say, lead generation.
Daniel Krikorian 9:52
Mhm.
Mhm.
Mhm.
Anna Angelova 10:05
And let’s Fast forward to to today or how are things, how have things changed in the years and what are you doing right now to grow your leads and customer base?
Daniel Krikorian 10:16
Mhm.
Anna Angelova 10:18
Leads and customer base.
Daniel Krikorian 10:21
Yeah, things have changed dramatically. 2023, we saw a massive shift. The average cost of customer or CAC, your customer acquisition cost went from 125 to about $200.
Anna Angelova 10:35
Yeah.
Daniel Krikorian 10:41
Dollars on average to about 450 to $500 because the lead generation cost on these sites. So the way it works in weddings specifically is there are sites like Wedding Wire than not Zola Thumbtack and they own the SEO. So they’re basically this massive barrier.
That says that if you want to get leads, you have to get them through us. And So what we had done was we we figured out their algorithms in the beginning and we were paying.
And we were, we had like a 20, it was 22% conversion rate at one point, it was all the way up to 27 at one point actually. And so those leads were really making sense. Our CAC was low, our our LTV was high, our lifetime value. So we were in just a really good position.
Anna Angelova 11:22
Nice.
Daniel Krikorian 11:34
And then 2023, I think they saw the number of vendors come on to these platforms to try to take advantage of this bubble in the wedding market. And so they went out there and they they 10X their cost. What was a 20 or $30 lead was now a 200 to $300.
Anna Angelova 11:34
OK.
Daniel Krikorian 11:54
Lead cost. So our strategy now had to adapt significantly because it just didn’t make sense the old way of doing it. We now go in and we actually work with the vendor. We we are selling to the vendor to help them go ahead and.
Not only go and build a software for them that they have everything in one, but then we actually this is the really cool part since the vendor comes on our platform and adds in 40 clients per year, maybe 20 clients, whatever have you.
They’re only serving them for photography or DJ. Now that same customer that was added by our vendor gets to go on and see the videographer or the the the makeup artist or the hair stylist. So we’re actually getting them.
For a significantly cheaper cost, we’re getting them under, you know, usually 20 to $30 to get them on our platform, hopefully booking more and more services. So we’ve kind of circumvented that system. We’ve also used other methods that I don’t even want to talk to talk about.
To get couples sooner with lead generation systems that we had built. So really we we’ve had to get very creative to drive that cost down.
Anna Angelova 13:26
It’s very interesting because I’m sensing a theme, hearing the theme of adapting and pivoting and like meeting the market where it is and that that creativity. So I’m actually curious to hear more about how you approach all these changes that are happening so quickly to step to stay.
On top and keep on succeeding.
Daniel Krikorian 13:50
Yeah, it was really funny. I had a day and I’ll never quite forget it. Just on that creativity piece where I had one of my photographers come in and he was a new guy.
Sometimes there can be a sense of arrogance. And there was this idea of, Dan, you’re a business owner, you’re not creative. And I was like, what? It’s like, well, first of all, I’m a photographer too, and a producer.
Don’t know how that ever came through your mind, but OK. And then the second bit was building a business is an extremely creative and logistical or I should say operational challenge. So to handle both of those.
I think, you know, this is impressive. Not giving myself credit, but like giving business owners credit. And I was just like, wow, you have no clue what goes on here. But so it’s funny that you you can kind of see that.
That being said, how I handle it without losing my mind.
I don’t know. I think it gets lost, but but no, um.
Anna Angelova 15:12
OK.
Daniel Krikorian 15:13
You know, I have a if if I have to pin it somewhere, I have a I have an amazing fiance. She’s she’s brilliant. I attribute a lot of my success to her to be totally honest with you because.
When you know, we we’ve had a few major moments that we’ve had to pivot. The last one, which I’m still currently going through with the software, she was brilliant and she took a look.
She was willing to take a look at this business for what it was and said to me, you know, what are you trying to solve? What’s the mission? Those things as a business owner, I don’t think it looked at often enough. We we get caught up in the day-to-day.
We’re very busy.
Pulling back that curtain and saying, you know, what are you solving for in this market? What are the pain points that you’re trying to to solve for? Ultimately, what’s the mission of the company and and what are you, what are you doing on a day-to-day basis to actually get that done?
And when we did that, we went, oh shoot, you know, our mission is to ultimately help the vendor to create a better couple experience.
You know, can that be done? You know, we have 16 people in house and another 146 team members. Are we doing it for them? What are the e-mail? What are the tasks that are happening day-to-day? Can they be done through automation? Is there a software out there that’s doing it? Ultimately there wasn’t. We were like, oh shoot, that’s what we need to fix.
You know, it was, it was really funny because I have another brilliant woman, Sue, who works with me and she was just like, Dan, you knucklehead, instead of solving this just for us, which is great, thanks. Like the industry needs this. It’s not out there. It’s not being solved for, you know, it’s a problem.
Look at all these, you know, people saying it’s a problem. And I was like, oh, OK, let’s get on this. And so my operations brain then comes into play. But um.
But I mean, I I’m, I’m grateful of my father. I have a I have a brilliant, you know, I have brilliant parents and my dad’s an engineer, so very problem solving mindset. My mother is financial in finances, so she just is very like detail oriented. So I guess I.
I have a good, like any good business, I have a good group around me. I have a good, I have a good staff that that’s my family mostly. So very grateful for that, very blessed to have them.
Anna Angelova 17:56
Love it. And what you were saying actually another thing that I noticed is the whole time as we were talking, you talk about we, you talk about how we are doing this, how, how we are building the business and yeah, having having a team and having.
Daniel Krikorian 18:11
Yeah.
Anna Angelova 18:15
Support and people who can help you get out of the weeds and be like, oh, this is what’s happening. Actually, it’s really, it’s really valuable. It’s really valuable. And thank you for sharing this and for putting the spotlight on the people who are around you and supporting you.
Daniel Krikorian 18:20
Mhm.
Yeah.
Mhm, No.
Anna Angelova 18:34
You.
Daniel Krikorian 18:36
Yeah, it’s not just me. I I mean, there’s it never is. You know, I think we’re so quick to idolize these people who do it all by themselves, but they they don’t. There’s just no way. And you know.
My fiance is, she’s just, she’s brilliant in so many ways, very emotionally. I will tell you, you know, I could work 16 hours a day, every day, lose myself in it and not leave. And I’m very grateful that she’s just like, no, no, no, no, no, we’re not going to do that because your work suffers.
And you suffer and let’s let’s try to avoid that. I’m like, oh, that’s a good point. So yeah, very good, but.
Anna Angelova 19:20
Yeah, it is definitely fantastic when you have this kind of support at home, really important. I remember talking with another business owner who was saying the same thing, having someone right next to you who who supports you and who’s you out of these things and is there for the good and the bad.
Daniel Krikorian 19:26
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, ultimately, I’m not gonna lie. I feel terrible for her sometimes cause I’m like, listen, I don’t, I I wouldn’t put up with my crap, you know, like it’s kind of just, you know, joking with her, but.
Anna Angelova 19:38
Which is awesome.
Daniel Krikorian 19:52
But yeah, I mean, it’s, you know, my brain, my brain goes crazy. You know, this morning it was up at 2:30 AM checking something and, you know, and she’s just, you know, thankfully, she’s just understanding of like, oh, that’s how my brain function. Her brain functions very similarly.
She can shut it off much better than I can. But but yeah, I mean we, I think that’s ultimately finding that individual who understands you. I always when I look up successful businesses.
businesses, there’s always a brilliant partner beside them. So that’s something that’s that seems to be a constant.
Anna Angelova 20:35
Yeah, and since we’re talking about wedding industry, actually this is one of the things. It’s so interesting how just recently, I think it was on Monday, I was listening for a short video that was talking exactly about this, how important it is to find someone like as your partner.
Like in life, someone who is a good fit in a way, someone who matches you in some ways and then complements you in other ways. And it sounds like you found this person, which is fantastic for you and your business.
Daniel Krikorian 20:54
Mhm.
Hmm.
Mhm.
Mhm.
Well, it’s very funny because you know, here I am, we put this place in a plan in place this year. We’ve been building, we’ve been going through this transition and you know the the vendor side has been a very, very big piece, but.
Outside of our macro discussions, there’s been a lot of micro discussions of her over my shoulder going, well, honey, for our wedding, I really want this or why? Why does it look like this? Or that doesn’t make sense. I’m like, OK, OK. And I’m like, this is frustrating at the same time, you know, so.
Jumps on my site, one of my friends and we’re going through. He’s in SEO and he looks at me and he goes, huh. Well, a man built this site. I go.
Yeah, I did. And so, you know, having my my fiancee coming in, she’s like, what does that even mean? I’m like, God, OK, what? What would you like it to say? It’s like, I just want to say book now. I don’t want it to do this. I want to say book now. I don’t know. I was like.
OK, you got it, honey. Whatever you want. And she’s like, I want this and I want this. And where’s my registry? And I was like.
Give me 10 days. Like, really? So it’s been been fun. It’s been interesting.
Anna Angelova 22:32
Now now it it sounds like you you are going through the sound experience that your your customers are going through and it’s definitely giving you a new perspective.
Daniel Krikorian 22:33
Yeah.
What I will say, which cracks me up, I have. I’m a very calm person. I think that’s been one of the attributes that work so well in weddings is that in these very high intensity moments.
You know, I’ll look at the bride and I’ll say to her, trust me, this has happened before. Don’t worry about it. We’re going to get through it. And I always get the joke of, you know, am I a bridezilla? And I said, no, I’ve seen them. Trust me, you are not one of them. And that that’s a big calming sensation. I can see the whole, you know, mood.
Shifts. Everything’s good. But I’ve heard, I’ve had brides call me at 10:00 at night. My mother-in-law wants this and I can’t. And I’m like, it’s fine. I just ignore them. And I just say, you know, I say it from a guy’s perspective of just like of having never done it before too.
Like, who cares? And then I’m on the phone with my mother and, you know, we’re, you know, we’re going through the whole process and she’s sitting there going, well, you have to invite them. I said no, I’m not inviting them. No, I want them to know because we didn’t get invited to their son’s wedding. And I’m like.
Oh, OK. This is what those people were talking about that I clearly had no clue what was happening. Thankfully, I know I look at it. I’m like, we’re not playing those games. Goodbye. Have a great day. But this is I I’m now in their shoes and I’m not in my fiance’s shoes.
Because I know that she’s getting it 10 times, probably even 100 times more than I am. That being said, I’m hearing it close up now and I’m like, it’s not that easy. OK, my bad. Yeah.
Anna Angelova 24:19
Yeah.
Oh yeah, the this, the business you have in the industry, like it’s it’s so, it’s so interesting and such a great place to be. And of course with the ups and the downs that come with it, you did mention that that you can work 16 hours a day.
Daniel Krikorian 24:33
Yeah.
Anna Angelova 24:50
Which made me think about like one thing that we business owners do. Like you said, we can work on the business in the business like 24/7, wake up at 2:00 AM and do things.
So when it comes to, I don’t really like the word balance, but right now I can’t think of another word. But when it comes to work life balance, how do you manage this?
Daniel Krikorian 25:07
See.
Yeah, yeah, it’s uh.
It’s really tough because I’ve had a previous business partner I remember coming up to me and saying, you know, I enjoy the Walt Disney Company. I find them fascinating. He was reading about Robert Iger and said Robert Iger shuts down at 5:00 PM at night.
And I said to him, yeah, well, Robert Iger’s not building a business. You know, he’s in a different stage. And I guarantee you that he’s not actually shutting down at 5:00 PM. That’s something he wrote in a book to make people feel good, right? Like and to make him seem like a normal human. Because if you say that you work till 10 people or at 2:00 AM, people go, this person’s a lunatic and they don’t want to do it.
Do it themselves. OK, so no one actually tells that story unless you’re on something like this. But I like to be truthful about it. And again, I’m grateful. My fiance works a lot too. She was gone for a week and a half on a business trip, and that’s just how it is.
Anna Angelova 26:00
Yeah.
Daniel Krikorian 26:19
That being said, on Friday night for I was going to say Thanksgiving. Thankfully we’re not there yet for Halloween tomorrow night. You know, we’re shutting down at 5 and going trick-or-treating with my nieces and nephews. So there is.
You know you’re gonna be on your phone. You’re gonna have to deal with it. People aren’t gonna like it. Ultimately, you have to decide if that’s the life you want, and if it is, you have to stick to it. And I think that in of itself.
You know, I had a, I had a a marketing woman who I I loved, very, very smart young woman and she kept posting about work-life balance and she made a comment to me and I said, you know, I don’t have a work-life balance, so you can.
And ultimately, that’s what it comes down to sometimes, this idea of hating business people, this idea we have this in our Western society right now. We think that they don’t deserve it, that they’re some higher class.
Most of the time we’re up at 2:00 AM or working ridiculous hours or glued to our phone. We have the highest divorce rate. It’s not a good thing. You know, it’s you have to. I think the ones that I admire the most, which I aim to be like, are the ones who have found a way to.
Keep their family at the pinnacle of their life and still run a successful business. I don’t think that that’s possible in the beginning, which is why I always suggest to younger entrepreneurs.
To either find someone who truly understands this or, you know, not find someone at that time because it’s just a lot of work. And then go ahead and establish that, you know, most of the time later on in life, which is unfortunate because I think it’s such a beautiful thing once you have it.
But, but yeah, that’s it’s the balance is not always a balance. I mean, there’s there’s some part of the equation that’s going to be thrown out, you know, and that’s that’s part of it. That’s what you sacrifice for it.
Anna Angelova 28:33
And in a way, when you think about building a business, you can definitely draw parallels with raising a child. Like a newborn wakes you up every 3-4 hours and there is so much demand with this and.
Daniel Krikorian 28:44
Mhm.
Thanks.
Anna Angelova 28:51
It’s building your own business. It’s like having your own baby that that you are taking care of like 24/7 in the beginning. And then like you said, as it goes to different stages, you can step away at some point.
Daniel Krikorian 28:54
Yeah.
OK.
Right, right. Absolutely. Yeah, that’s a great, great comparison. I know I have kids, but I would, you know, I would assume or I’ve heard the amount of time is very similar in that regard. So I I have to assume that is the case.
So yeah.
Anna Angelova 29:23
So thank you. Thank you for sharing and being honest that you know that idea. That’s why I don’t like the word balance because there are times when you will be working 1620 hours a day and it’s an investment and also the other thing is that.
When this is the thing that you’d rather do on a Saturday morning, you know you have found something.
Daniel Krikorian 29:47
Yeah, yeah, 100%. I think that’s that’s a great way to put it. Yeah, that’s that’s absolutely the case. When you sit there and you go, this is, this is what I wanted. This is exciting. You know, what does it matter?
So you’re going to, you’re going to get it done, right? That’s that’s ultimately the case. And I mean, you know, you don’t, yes, you wake up because of stress sometimes, but ultimately you wake up because you had this idea and you want to go write it down or see what’s, you know, going on here and there.
And so it’s, yeah, it’s worth it. Thanks. You’re tired, but it’s worth it, so.
Anna Angelova 30:28
Mhm.
Now I know you’re going through a change transformation right now with the the new platform you you’ve introduced recently, but what’s ahead for for your business and all these things that you’re doing?
Daniel Krikorian 30:44
Mm.
Anna Angelova 30:46
OK.
Daniel Krikorian 30:47
Yeah, it’s very exciting. I’m, I’m very excited about all of this. Be remembered Studio, which is the back end side that we’re releasing to vendors. It’s actually being released on November 1st. It is.
Really a complete change to our business, our system, and it’s such an exciting prospect for us because it’s actually making an impact across what could be the globe tomorrow.
That’s something, you know, Jaclyn, my fiance and I had talked about of just be remembered as a whole. The way it was operating before could not have that impact as much as we wanted it to. There was so much manual work involved and the manual work.
Leads to mistakes, human error, especially as you go into quantity. And in this industry you can’t afford that. So building this automation, building this system has been a true blessing in disguise. It has opened us up.
And really given us the ability to offer these tools to vendors of every type and venues across the world in every domain. So that’s really, it’s one of the most amazing things that we came up with. You know, we have team members and.
Individuals jumping on because they’re so excited about this. So I, you know, when I built this, it was very exciting. We were bringing people in even in 2020. It was like, oh, there’s work here, there’s work there. That’s great. But to see the level of excitement here for the product from both sides to me.
That’s we’ve hit something, you know?
It’s it’s a really, really exciting time. It’s nerve-racking because, you know, you’re releasing, you know, your baby’s learning how to walk. We’ll we’ll bring it back to that equation, right? And you’re afraid that they’re going to hit their head into the table and you’re trying to protect them from that. Or you’re trying to think of every which way that they could hurt themselves. So you’re.
Anna Angelova 32:49
Yeah, yeah.
Daniel Krikorian 32:58
They’re sitting like, Oh my God, I hope they don’t. But ultimately they’re they’re learning how to walk. And you know, when that starts happening, it’s, it’s an amazing feeling. You know, we’ve seen when that excitement comes over you, that realization that you had built something that.
You know, people want, need and are excited to use that. That’s a great feeling. That’s that’s huge. So I’m sure I’m not alone in that feeling, but it’s very, very exciting moment for us.
Anna Angelova 33:34
It’s fantastic and I’m actually looking forward to to continuing to see your story and how how this grows. Like you said, it has a potential to be used worldwide. It’s not, it’s not something just local which is.
Daniel Krikorian 33:44
Yeah.
Anna Angelova 33:49
So awesome. Now, as we’re wrapping the conversation for today, any advice you’d give to people who are just looking to start a business?
Daniel Krikorian 34:05
Oh, that advice varies depending upon the day, I’ll tell you, but overall.
Hmm.
I would say.
Just.
B.
Grounded in your ambitions. That doesn’t mean to slow your ambitions down, but it means to understand what you’re getting yourself into, which we never quite know.
But you know, there’s a lot of times where my fiance says to me, oh, I, you know, I’m sorry, it’s like that for you right now. And my response is always to her. I made this decision.
I this is my choice. This was not something that happened accidentally, really own that decision and that responsibility and I think ultimately.
I haven’t always done that, and I think mentally it hasn’t been a good place. Owning your decisions, being responsible for them, I think just changes that dynamic in a very healthy manner.
and get you excited versus, you know, dragged down in the hard times and and keeps you going, so.
No.
Anna Angelova 35:42
