Take the Elevator
This podcast is purely about elevating people through individual life stories and experiences in the Elevator. In the Elevator, what's key is maybe changing your perspective; having self-actualization; embracing your purpose; and acting on it as we grow from one another. There is a whole different point of view when you look up to elevate.
Take the Elevator
368th Floor: What Are You Truly Pursuing and Why?
What are you truly chasing in life, and is it leading you somewhere meaningful? We've all experienced that hamster-wheel feeling—constantly moving but never actually arriving anywhere. This conversation digs into the profound difference between mere motion and purposeful pursuit.
Sustainability emerges as a robust framework for evaluating what matters most. When Kory states that "sustainability equals life," it shifts our perspective on everything. We explore how pursuits that sustain us create opportunities for greater purpose, while those that plague us lead to collapse and torment.
The journey isn't always straightforward. We share personal stories about navigating both distracting detours (those that pull us off course) and divine detours (those that redirect us toward something better).
Perhaps most valuable are the questions we explore: What matters to me now? What am I willing to let go of? Who am I becoming in this process? And crucially, is this pursuit truly mine or someone else's expectation? Your answers might revolutionize your direction.
Whether you're questioning your career path, relationships, or personal goals, this episode offers a compassionate but challenging framework to evaluate what you're really chasing and why. We invite you to pick just one thing this week to pursue with genuine intention, no matter how small.
Look up and let's elevate—every day.
hey, it's jen the builder and cory and I obviously felt like I needed to come in on the music still on full blast. It's all good sometimes. It be that way. If I had a choice, I think today I'd probably keep the music playing the whole time. It's that kind of energy for me yeah, jen, you know what?
Speaker 2:let's just start this thing off with a bang. So, bang, bang. We had a very active weekend. We did some, uh, different things this weekend that that we hadn't done in a long time. Would you like to throw a few things out there? Would you like for me to just ramble it off?
Speaker 1:well, you can ramble off, but first I want to say that there was a stretch for me, because I don't know if anyone's ever experienced this, but my emotions this week were just all over the place, like just all the feelings and ups and downs, and I carried it in my face. So I'll explain that later. But it felt like a combination of congestion in my sinus, a toothache lockjaw although I've never had that and just a headache in my temple and then stress in the back of my neck. So the weekend I experienced major remnants of that.
Speaker 2:So while we were doing things that we haven't done in a long time, um, I had to carry all this stuff going on in my face right now yeah, so, um, not to minimize that at all, but I just wanted to highlight something that we did and we've been redecorating our backyard and I know that brings joy to jen. So that's what I was trying to get our mind off of some of the sad things that we were experiencing and they're not sad in a way like we're we're in loss, but, um, jen is moving to a different team and she's going to miss her old team, and so just wanted to experience some really nice things in this transition and it did do that.
Speaker 1:Um, I felt it's funny because it ties very well into our topic for today. It does so, um, I'm just going to go ahead and put what today's about, um, sometimes our distractions or we create distractions in our pursuit of something bigger right To kind of not feel the impact as much. But today we're going to talk about pursuit and what we're really chasing in this life, and is it leading us towards something meaningful or is it just keeping us busy? So stay tuned, because before we do that I know, corey, you've got some announcements you want to share with our friends.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I just wanted to put out there. You know we're doing some big things, guys, and we're going to be showing up in some unusual places because we have a little bit longer reach now that we've got book number four out. So just be on the lookout for the things, the exciting news that we're going to be announcing, not to mention on Amazon. All four books are available and they're all categorized the right way, and we're just really excited about this. Big things are happening for us and we thank everyone for being a part of that journey yeah, so let's talk about the categories real quick.
Speaker 1:Kelly kanga, our recent book, the fourth one was categorized as a cookbook, and I guess it would be kind of cute if it was. Kelly kanga cooks right, but that's not what it was. So I definitely want to give a shout out to petra, who has partnered with us in aligning and cleaning up our stuff on Amazon. It's a lot of work, a lot of tedious work. So, corey, you and Petra have just done an amazing job working together.
Speaker 2:Yeah, just banging it out. And there's another person in the background, but I'm not sure if I'm at liberty to disclose that just yet. But yeah, petra man, what a trooper yeah, so gory let's.
Speaker 1:Let's go ahead and start this. You mentioned the weekend, sure. With all of that, what's one thing that you woke up wanting today or over the weekend? Was it peace, purpose progress or just to make it through?
Speaker 2:oh, jen, that that's tough, you know, for me. I'm always pushing for progress, I'm always pushing for purpose. I'm pushing for purpose in my progress and progress in my purpose. I'm very driven with what I need to get done, because we're always talking about time and I'm sure that's going to play a part in this conversation as well. So, yeah, I'm just really pushing for and, guys, I'm not overly serious, I play, I goof off, I have a good time, but even in that, there's still a purpose and a process that we need to follow.
Speaker 1:I really love how you just did that. I gave you a choice of three and you went with all of the above, and that makes sense is to have progress in the purpose, purpose in your progress and I think underlying in all of that is to have peace through it all.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Look at you. Wow, this is going to be good. So let's talk about real quick what we mean by pursuit, right? I don't think that's a very common word we use nowadays. I mean, we talk about what are you chasing? What do you want?
Speaker 2:Well, I love that word pursuit though.
Speaker 1:Yeah, let's talk about that. What do you love about it?
Speaker 2:I love that. It describes me to a T Like when I think about how I got you. I was in pursuit. I was in hot pursuit to get Jen, you know, to make sure that she was going to be my wife. And I made it clear on day one that you know I'm not out here dating to date people and get to know people, I'm dating to get married. So that made the pursuit serious and so she had an option at that point, like do I continue with this guy that's really serious from jump, or do I just deter him and tell him oh no, I'm not trying to do all that, but I mean we were both in our 30s so I thought it was a good way to do that. But yeah, I love the word pursuit because it just it shows so much meaning and intention much meaning and intention.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and I love that you brought up the story of your pursuit of me, because I think we're gonna weave that in to different parts of today's episode. So what I'm hearing you saying is it's more than just the goal or the dream, right? So the goal was to get married? Yeah, maybe the dream was mary jen. Yeah, right, but the pursuit is then the active energy that we pour into something.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's all the energy.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:It's like you fill the tank up with that particular energy so that you don't, you know, run out of steam.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so what are some common pursuits that we see in our, our world, people that we know?
Speaker 2:The typical pursuit is career, then there's relationship. You have a pursuit to achieve a certain amount of money. Some people are in pursuit of happiness. Um, I don't know if happiness is obtainable, though, and that's just my perspective. I'm not saying that's true for anybody else. That's just what I think. So I don't pursue happiness, I pursue my purpose, and my purpose brings me joy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, wow. There's a lot to unpack there. So you mentioned career and relationship. To me, that speaks to the goal or the dream, right?
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:But when I think of the pursuit so, for example, when I think of man, what is it that I'm pursuing when I decide to make a career change? For some people, it might be success. Some people go for titles, so it's about status. Stability, especially now for people, is a big pursuit, or sustainability? Yeah, and I want to talk about that answer because, corey, you are so brilliant. Let me take a little bit of a detour.
Speaker 1:Uh-oh, some of the ways that Corey and I are so if we had to talk about our norms. One of them is when we have an idea for the episode or there's something on our mind, we text it to each other, even if we're in the same house. And we text it to each other even if we're in the same house. And the reason why we do that is because we want to capture that thought and make sure it's documented somewhere, because we do that a lot Like what did we talk about? We really wanted to bring that forward in the episode, and then it gives us time to collaborate or just share our thoughts on it.
Speaker 2:Digest.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so I had put in a text last week or the week before. I said life is not, we're not promised tomorrow and time is short. What are you in pursuit of? And I really want to talk about your answer in a second, corey, okay, but you mentioned relationships, and so if that is someone's goal, is a healthy relationship. I think the pursuit in a relationship is always love, a sense of belonging, right, um, and I'm just going to say sometimes it's approval, maybe not in relationships, but the way we look, the things that we do pursue, because it's what society says should be the thing. In our world, what's the expectation? Or, in our culture, what are some pursuits that are given to us as the norm, and how might we need to unlearn those things?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I like that. I like that a lot. It's along the lines that I was already thinking, along the lines that I was already thinking. You know, one of the big pursuits that were given from birth is marriage. Yeah, girls are taught to be married and boys are taught to get jobs and careers, and that was a big part of what we were taught, as you and I and our generation and our cultures. Let's talk about that marriage thing first and foremost, because if that's something you're truly pursuing, then you need as much education about what it takes to maintain, again, stability, sustainability, a marriage, and so get as much information as you can. And then, when you talk about a career Jen, you know I'm going to get in trouble on this one, but I got to go there. Okay, I just got to be really, really honest Most careers are designed to make someone else rich.
Speaker 2:Most careers are designed to make someone else wealthy, and some careers bring you good feeling based on very temporary successes, and you don't get to have those long-term successes because the door continues to revolve. Being an educator if you're a lifelong educator, yeah, you get to touch lives, uh, but they're different lives. You don't get to see those lives the whole way through. And so when you become an educator of life, it all, it changes the dynamic. But when you, when you're talking about careers, um, again, this is designed to make someone else very wealthy and give you just enough money to make it I can see what you're saying and agree to an extent.
Speaker 1:I also think that if your career, so if the pursuit of your career, is to make money, the reality is you might make some money, but the reality is you're making someone else more money. That's the formula or the layout of having a boss. Now, for me, if your career is lined up with a pursuit of your purpose, then it becomes more and it becomes intrinsic. And sometimes people can't see what that pursuit is. So I'm just going to not speak in code and speak for myself.
Speaker 1:So in the last decade or so, my pursuit has been in partnering with people and in the learning environment, in the professional development space and coaching. Before that it was nursing and making sure that people had access to get the care that they needed outside of a hospital, right, right, so this career change continues to align with that purpose, absolutely. Except in this career change I'm leaving the professional development piece and going more into the holistic approach of supporting people who I get to because they're in the workforce, trying to ensure that people in the community are taken care of. So when it's big like that, for me the pursuit is no longer about the career but my purpose in life. You know what I mean, right.
Speaker 2:Okay, let me just sprinkle some seasoning on top of that just to see where it lands. Okay, if you remove yourself and your purpose away from an employer, maintain that purpose.
Speaker 1:Yes, that's what purpose is. It's not just about.
Speaker 2:What happens as soon as you remove yourself away from the employer, keep the purpose and still have what you're doing, you become not only the person with the career, but you also become the employer, and you also become the person working to make yourself more money.
Speaker 1:Yes, so now you've made it multivalued, absolutely. Yeah, I hear you, I hear you. So in just a minute we're going to talk about the most deep thing that, corey, you've ever shared with me. And you were just a deep thinker and this one blew my mind, but I wanted to talk to set the. The space up is that there's a difference between being in motion and having direction right, so this links to your, your pursuit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so I I love this, because we don't want to confuse activity with purpose, like you were just talking about. You know things that people could do at work, at activity, but is it lined up with your purpose? Because even a treadmill gives you movement, but you never go anywhere. True, or a track will give you movement, but you're seeing the same thing over and over and over motion, like you're not getting into, you're not taking a walk or run and landing in another physical destination, right, right, okay, so go ahead. Cory, when I sent you that text, what were you thinking? Because you responded I swear in like 15, 20 seconds. I was like, how does he come back with a question where I'm like, whoa, this is deep, what, what, what a question to think about. And you just responded in the manner in which you did. You want to share what you said?
Speaker 2:sure? So just to give a quick reminder, jen texted me living like time is limited, calling what are you in pursuit of and why? And so I responded time is very limited. The pursuit is to create sustainability. Sustainability equals life. Life equals opportunity for more of God's work. God's work equals well done, thy good and faithful servant.
Speaker 2:Now, if I can just elaborate shortly on what I was thinking and how that came about, everything that we're attempting to do in our pursuit to our goals and what we're trying to build here has to be sustainable, so it has to be something that can continue on and on, and on and on.
Speaker 2:If you don't have that, if you don't create something that someone needs forever, then you got to keep on creating, and the more you create, the more tired you get. So I'm looking for sustainability. If you have sustainability, then it adds to your life. I mean, it takes away the need for more money, because the money will become one of those things that's continuously coming in. Then bills are paid, then worries are less, stress is less, and then it creates more opportunities, more opportunities to help people, more opportunities to lend to the and not be the borrower from everything that you're doing. It's important in my belief system to be able to give to people or lend, if need be, in order, and instead of always having to borrow or go to a financial institution and get money, and also with my faith and my belief system, I believe that aligns with biblical principle. That's just how. I think it was funny when you sent me that I was already in that mode, so it was just one of those things that rolled off my the top of my head wow.
Speaker 1:So the timing of it was everything. So, as Corey was sharing this, I got uber excited because you had shared with me not just life here, but ultimately what it was about, and I got so excited that we had a conversation about that word sustainability. And I tend to go black or white, right, like when you're making a decision. So, in other words, let me give an example when you're working with people, you're either doing one of two things you're either harming or healing. Right, and so when you think about it that way, my interaction is either going to promote harm or it's going to promote a place of healing.
Speaker 2:Oh that just landed all kind of warm and fuzzy, wow, okay yes.
Speaker 1:So for me, like, although we live in a lot of gray, I try, when it comes to people, I try not to live in that gray same thing. When you said sustainability, I said cory, what, what, what's the opposite of sustainability?
Speaker 1:whenever you go into antonyms, I think it like adds so much more impact in the thought. So the antonym of sustainability sustainability or the opposite is to collapse under, to torment or to plague. And it just hit me. What in my life, what actions, what people, what relationships, what activities, what events, what decisions am I making that promote sustainability right for my life, so that way we have time to do the good work and there's a bigger reward, a bigger purpose? So what am I doing to sustain? Or are there things that are happening that are plaguing me, tormenting me or making me feel like I'm collapsing under all this weight?
Speaker 2:How we and Jen, if you just slightly tweak that you could be plaguing someone. Yes or collapsing on someone.
Speaker 1:That's real talk, or?
Speaker 2:tormenting someone.
Speaker 1:Real talk. Yeah, man on someone.
Speaker 1:that's real tormenting someone real talk, yeah, man and when you're conscious of that and when you're intentional, and that is like what you're thinking, like right now, I'm with this person. Am I sustaining them or am I plaguing them, tormenting them? Those are deep words, deep words. So for me, it's what gives your pursuit meaning. Your answer gave my pursuit meaning, nice, and it just reminded me of how important it is, speaking of sustaining, that we talk to one another or we connect with people, because there within lies the gift that you didn't realize that you needed, right.
Speaker 1:My question was coming more from a sense of oh my goodness, time's passing us by. You know time to check in, corey. What are we pursuing here? And then I was more into the what and the tasks and things like that. I mean, I knew it was a deep question, but for you to share what you thought, it just put things into perspective, it aligned. I immediately thought of values. When you were talking earlier about why you said sustainability, one could tell Corey that one of your values is taking care of people, and to take care of people it's important that we have the finances to do that.
Speaker 2:Absolutely yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:That's how it's always been for us and so that is a value of yours. So whenever we're doing something, the pursuit is okay. How does this help in helping and I love to help people that way too, and I'm thinking on spiritually, emotionally, mentally how is this helping people? And that is my pursuit, and I think the beauty of genco is that we both have the same pursuit, but it supports and it's aligned with our gifts and talents right you know that we've been given.
Speaker 2:Yeah can I, can I jump in there real? Please do so. Um, let me just say it like this people aren't good at multiple things. Typically, you have your anomalies that come along, like Prince, who can play every instrument, or Bo Jackson, which, if you're as old as I am, you remember.
Speaker 1:Bo.
Speaker 2:Jackson, who played baseball football, and you know just a name I haven't heard in so long.
Speaker 1:He was just phenomenal, or even some others.
Speaker 2:We can go on all day with a few people that have these multiple gifts, but typically people have one thing that they're good at, and if you're good at something, it's cool, but if you can elevate good to great, now you're talking about something you can sustain yeah, and that's important.
Speaker 1:I love what you said because it's our strengths. And when people talk about you know, oh, this is my goal as a coach. I think it's awesome to have goals, but I think we can get inundated with them. Yeah, right, right. And we've got to go back to what this is about. Who are you, what are your strengths and how are they bringing meaning and contribution into your life?
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Like let's talk about those things.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you just hit them. That's exactly where I was going, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so where I'm going. I've had to talk this out and I finally come to this. The reason why I make I've just made this career move is that pursuit that may be invisible to some and that's healing right. It's spiritual growth, not just for people I get to work with and touch, but for myself, like that's so needed right now. I feel like that's where I need to be, yeah, and and I love that.
Speaker 2:And then I say love because what I know that other people don't know is that this move is not just growing you internally, it's growing growing you externally as well, and so it's not only pushing the boundaries within the career that you're in, but it's pulling you outside of that career.
Speaker 2:To change it to something more than just how do I say that word? What am I looking for? It automatically becomes sustainable because it's not just for you not you the person, jen but for the people that you're serving. It becomes accessible and available for everyone.
Speaker 1:And I think why it really speaks right now is because of the state of the world that we're in. Like it's just been heavy on me. You know there we go Under the pressure of, or, you know, tormenting me. Yeah, by not making this decision, it would have continued to torment me, yeah.
Speaker 2:And so I mean I guess we have to come clean about what's really happening. You know, we have these political issues jumping off all around us, we have floods and fires and all these things, and we kind of see the system tipping their hand and showing us that some torment and torture is coming. And so, in order for us to have sustainability, we got to keep up, we got to be running at a pace that's much faster than what the system is preparing us for.
Speaker 1:Oh, I love how you're linking that to the word pursuit. Yeah, yeah, it's that chase, the running, the going after, right?
Speaker 2:So the things that you've mentioned the way I would define those is distracting detours and then you have divine detours, the detours that are meant to pause you so you can reflect, say, hey, I'm off track oh, we just had one of those, an amazing detour, and that was purposeful in the scheme of things, because we needed to meet Petra, we needed to have our paths crossed so that we can get back on track, because we were detoured with some fine tuning in the elements of the books, and so that helped us in a way that we can. It's priceless.
Speaker 1:So you mentioned some detours that pull people off course, like the news, social media comparisons. Perfectionism is something that people are in pursuit of, that we all know you'll never get there. So then you experience burnout or the fear of disappointing others. Right, I want to go back and lighten it up a little bit to when you were pursuing me, because you had the goal of um we always go back to gin let. Uh, that's very narcissistic, isn't it?
Speaker 1:no, I'm just uh I was like, should we change the topic? I, because I had said I'd like to go back to that when let's talk about some detours even in that, just even in our relationship. Um, in the beginning, distracting detours for me. Well, first of all, I wasn't ready for what you were bringing to the table.
Speaker 1:um, I was at a point in my life where I was like what I'm not in pursuit, what I was in pursuit of, the detour there was, quite honestly, it was very self-destructive. And so to be ready to experience that kind of love and that kind of commitment just wasn't happening because we were in pursuit of something totally different.
Speaker 2:And you were so brilliant in forcing a pause, and what that pause did for me was it made me reflect so I recognized that jen was on a bit of a and I won't say destructive, it was more of a counterintuitive uh direction, it's a better word and but but and it's key to know this because if you see someone going in a direction and their actual direction is leading them somewhere, that's a whole nother ball of wax. But I noticed Jim was on a treadmill so I knew it wasn't going too much further.
Speaker 1:Y'all get off this hamster wheel. What are you doing? Let's go. We got stuff to do, man.
Speaker 2:We got books to write and people to talk to.
Speaker 1:I'm like no, chase me more, Chase me more.
Speaker 2:So after she got off the treadmill I realized okay, it's time. And I, strategically as she said figured out by calling and seeing where are you at, what are you doing, what's going on in your life. And as she began to unfold those details, I said okay, I can, it's time I can go back to the chase yeah.
Speaker 1:So I love this because we started off with pursuit and what it, what it means, right. And then we talked about the motion and now we're talking about distractions and detours. But in that, what you just described, corey, is we all make decisions. We all should be making a pivot moment. So what you did in flipping the script was you made a pivot moment where you had to change how you were pursuing. So let's talk about that real quick. When you had to shift gears. Right, you're in the pursuit, you're like in full throttle, fifth gear and now you're having a downshift. How hard was that or how freeing was that to make that determination to make a pivot moment?
Speaker 2:It wasn't hard. I knew in my heart and it's like this Let me just say something everyone can understand and get If you're cooking and the dishes are piling up and you know I got to wash a few of these dishes before I move forward you don't just stop cooking and let the food burn. You continue to cook and wash a dish here and there and get the necessary plates and things out of the way and you go back to cooking and so that's that's what I was doing. I said, oh, she's not quite there yet. There's some other things I need to tend to.
Speaker 1:I'll be back Love that, because then that leads into this space and I want to know what you think is a main talking point in the as we talk about the pursuit of. The thing is, I want to say we should encourage curiosity over certainty when we're in the pursuit. And what I mean by that is you would think that in the pursuit you have a plan, but like you did, but you had a pivot and I'm thinking maybe we should be more, less about the certainty of the plan and more curious, like asking the better questions or finding more things out as we're in the pursuit. How does that land with you?
Speaker 2:I'll say this to that how many times have we started a job and we knew on day one this is not going to be a good situation? Started a job and we knew on day one this is not going to be a good situation? How many times have we uh, went on a date and the person showed all the red flags in 30 minutes, but you stayed?
Speaker 2:on, we still pursued it, yeah we still went on that, so there's no need to be curious on that. It's certain that it's not going to work, or it's certain? That it's something bad is gonna happen. Okay, why wait around for it to happen? Okay, let's just get moving and get out of there, because there's other things we could be doing or probably should be doing I see your point.
Speaker 1:So the certainties in the beginning, like paying attention to those things and not pushing, and I love that. Now, what I say as a coach is once you determine what your values are, what you're in pursuit of, and you have some kind of a pathway Remember we talked about pathways before on an earlier episode. I think for me then is when I like to go more into the curious spaces than certainty, because there's so many different things that come our way while we're in pursuit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I maintain that vibe, though, jen, I believe wholeheartedly you should always be curious.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Always be on the look for something different, something new or what's different about this scenery, that scenery that I didn't catch the last time. I think that's what helps me in my writing, because I'm just always looking for a nuance in the story that you know I hadn't discovered and how I can tweak it and change it. So it keeps me curious, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah. So some of the questions that I would ask someone, just some powerful questions to ask along the way of the pursuit, is what matters to me now Because again there's the idea of seasonal pursuit too right For this moment. This is what I'm pursuing and we know that purpose, passions, evolve in your life. So what matters to me now? What am I willing to let go of to pursue it? That was a huge one for me during this time in my life. That's the loss, that feeling of loss and grief because you're letting go of some things to pursue something Quick ask of all the people listening.
Speaker 2:I would like for you to verbalize, or mentally verbalize, or journal or journal, what you're in pursuit of. Are you using all the curiosity that you can while you're pursuing it, and are you making it a point to see if it's, uh, a secured pursuit?
Speaker 1:yeah, a certain one isn't that funny how we're bringing up both things. We're not saying no, no, it's always curiosity, no, you've got to make space for certainty as well. Yeah, and then I love this question is who do I want to become in this process of the pursuit? Because once you determine your path and you're certain of that, while being very open and curious, it's also understanding that man, there's some changes.
Speaker 2:I got to make right awareness going into behavior changes wow, that that one really rocks my world, jen, and I'm gonna tell you why really quick. I remember being in pursuit of some things that changed me for the worst and I did not like who I was becoming at the the tail end of that and realized almost too late, like I got to change course real quick before I become something that I can't recognize anymore. So, yeah, that's real key, yeah.
Speaker 1:So, corey, I love that you've already called us to action and the challenge and writing that down, so I'm just going to kind of put this together, wrap it up with a nice bow.
Speaker 2:I like bows.
Speaker 1:So it's what are you really in pursuit of, or what are you in pursuit of right now? Is it giving you life, is it sustaining you or is it draining you? Is it plaguing you? And then, as you figure out awareness of you and managing yourself, then asking yourself am I giving life to those around me or am I draining them?
Speaker 2:Or tormenting, which is an incredible word. Yeah.
Speaker 1:And then, as you think of your pursuit, the last question is is it yours or is it someone else's pursuit Right, or is it because someone else's pursuit Right, or is it because? Other people said so.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Really good things to think about this week, so we invite you to at least pick one thing this week to pursue with intention, no matter how small. That's how we get to exercise our control, and that helps with burnout is focus on what you can control, corey, before we end this wonderful episode. First, I want to thank you for giving us this space and responding the way you did. It just brought so much more elevation to the way I think about pursuit. Is there anything you want to say?
Speaker 2:Yeah, this conversation felt very good, authentic and like a verbal workout. I really enjoyed how we pursue this conversation.
Speaker 1:I did too. Well, I'm going to end with elevate your pursuit and you know, as it take the elevator, we say look up and let's elevate every day, elevate, every day, elevate, every day elevate.
