And it's not to say that we're not communicating with people. And that's really difficult if you, a live in the same house or b work in the same office, um, you know, live in the same community, and so I see so many people that are just avoiding, you know, the discomfort, and I think what we teach in these courses is giving people the confidence and the tools to be able to navigate that and be okay with the discomfort, because what they end up seeing on the other side of that is something really powerful, something really freeing for them again, whether that's at home or at work.
