Perid, do you want to kick it off and share a little more about, about us and our background? Yeah, I'll give you a little bit of our personal background. So Justin and I, we just celebrated our 20th year anniversary. We got three kids. So we have an 18 year old boy, 16 year old daughter, 14 Uh, we live in California, San Diego area, and we have been running businesses together for about 20 years. 20 years! Can you believe that she's been able to handle me for that long? I'm a lucky lady. I have an awesome husband. Oh, I'm blessing. But yeah, we've had some ups and downs. And if you kind of want to share a little bit more of our business background. Yeah. So I've wanted to have a business my entire life. I just didn't know a whole lot about business, but when I was young, your age, or even younger, I would go to Costco and buy candy and try to sell it. And, um, this is a little, I'm not sure if you're supposed to do this, but my mom would [00:03:00] buy the, like candy bars when we were, you guys today, you just like send out a text and we give you money for your fundraisers at school. But when I was younger, I would sell like candy bars at grocery stores. So my mom would buy the candy bars. As if we were doing like a fundraiser, we'll go sell the candy bars. And, um, we were doing all kinds of stuff. I would raise lovebirds and animals and hand feed them and sell them. So I was always just trying to figure out how I could make money, but I always want to have a business, but they didn't really know a whole lot about business.

Um, when I was in high school, I read a book called Rich Dad, Poor Dad. And that really helped me kind of like change the way I thought about about money and business. So I always knew I wanted to have a business. I always knew I wanted to invest. I always knew I wanted to create wealth and be able to do cool things in my life. [00:04:00] So, um, fast forward, went to college, uh, went to Brigham Young University and had a football scholarship. And that's where I met Tara. And so we met and we ended up getting married and I told her like, I hurt my shoulder and I knew I wasn't going to play football anymore and I knew I wanted to start a business. And at the time I was selling satellite dishes door to door. And after doing research, I was like, Hey, I think we can make like three times as much money if we start our own business doing this instead of doing it for this other company. So I got paired a quitter job as a third grade teacher. And we went for it. And we were pumped. We're going to make a million dollars within a year. And what do you think happened within a year? It didn't go as planned. It did not go as planned. At first, it was going pretty well when I was just selling on my own. ...
