    Nolan, I remember when you shared this story with Kaylee and I last year! Proud of you opening up and making yourself uncomfortable starting a journey you're not used to on the podcast. I always say, make yourself or someone uncomfortable and get them out of that comfort zone will make them a better person, teacher and or leader!! Looking Forward to More.
