Megan: [00:00:00] Welcome to SheBoss. I am very excited about today’s episode. Lindsey is a dear, dear friend of mine, and I’ve been thinking in the back of my mind, I’m like. We should’ve been number one on this podcast, as far as I’m concerned. I know I just adore you. So super excited to hear all about you and what you’ve got going on within this community.
Um, anybody who has been outside of their home in Huntsville for the last couple of years probably recognizes Lindsey, um, for being truly a fire behind so many exciting things that are happening here, whether it’s from a development or growth or. Concert or art. I mean, there’s just so many different facets to your role.
I think you have the funnest job in Huntsville. There’s no doubt about that. Thank you. Um, but let’s just dive in. I know a lot of people know you for what you’re doing today, which we’re gonna talk [00:01:00] about in just a bit. Mm-hmm. But let’s just sort of start in the background, you know, kind of Yeah. Where, where you’re from, what brought you to Huntsville and, we’ll, we’ll start there.
Lindsey: Okay. Cool. Well, I’m Lindsey Pattillo Keane, born and raised in Huntsville. I’m a of a local gal. Uh, went Huntsville High. I am the oldest of three kiddos and, uh, just very proud to be from Huntsville and, uh, ended up going to Auburn and University of Alabama for undergraduate. Yes, I’m in, um, for interior design.
And so that, that was a easy decision for me because it marries creativity and, and eccentric thinking and problem solving with. Engineering and delivery and execution. So that’s like kind of me in a nutshell, really. Yeah. Uh, I love to think creatively and, and, and go outside of the box, but also I’m just as focused on the, the delivery of, of those creative [00:02:00] ideas.
And so, um. When I finished my undergrad, I ended up going out to Los Angeles and worked in a very fancy kitchen and bath showroom. Um, if anyone graduated in that time of frame oh eight and oh nine, it was an insane time to be selling anything. It was, the economy was really not doing well that time, and it especially wasn’t doing well in Southern California.
So, um, lost my job and it, it got my car broken into and broke up with boyfriend and there was earthquakes. I mean, it, it was, it was life. Uh, it, it coming at you, um, time? Yes. Yeah, yeah. Within six months there’s a lot of living happening. Um, and so decided to move to Houston, Texas, and I spent most of my, um, adult career in Houston working in hospitality and event management.
Mm-hmm. And I ran a big event space where there was a big ranch and we had three actually event spaces. [00:03:00] Had a blast doing that. If anyone’s been to Houston or knows anything about Houston, there’s a lot of diversity there. Yeah.
Megan: Um, what was the, that you were at?
Lindsey: It was called Agave Estates. Agave Estate.
Agave Estates. It was weddings, west weddings, corporate events. Um, we would do almost 300 weddings a year. And gosh, it was, it was a full dose of culture. Hard work. Late nights. Yeah. High heels on concrete, you know, for 12 hours. High stress, lots of, you know, brides and, and parents. There’s a lot riding on that day.
So I learned a lot about working under pressure. Mm-hmm. And, um, ended up getting a Master’s in business while I was in Houston, uh, and MBA and ended up loving getting that, uh, while I was there too. Ended up switching around for a few different event venues. Worked for a big 20,000 square foot event space.
Super Bowl was hosted in [00:04:00] Houston while I was there, so we had a lot of Super Bowl activity. Um, met Anthony Bourdain and we were hosting Frito Le and Tito’s Vodka. And so it went kind of from 200, 300 person weddings to 20,000 person like music festivals and, and Super Bowl activations and and whatnot.
And about that time I was finishing my MBA, I realized that. Come to Huntsville would be a good idea because I saw a lot of growth happening here. I saw, you know, I would come home for obviously to see family, uh, but then I came home for a wedding and really started to notice that there were some changes happening, uh, which was exciting and fantastic.
And and what time was that? That was 20, uh, 17. Okay. And that was 2017. And so email chains were sent ’cause I went to a wedding, like I said, and. Who is in charge of doing a lot of this growth and spearheading a lot of this growth, and [00:05:00] ended up getting connected with DHI and Chad Emerson. And then Chad connected me with Max Grier, who owns RCP companies, who, who’s the developer of that that, that we’ve been working for, and I’ve been working for, for the past eight years.
And we just, I mean, it all fell into place. I mean, that wedding was in January and I came to interview, uh, St. Patrick’s Day 2017. Wow. Um. And it, I just, I was like hard eyes, just everything that was going on and all the projects that we were working on. Absolutely. Dying to be a part of it. Yeah. And I could come back home and, and buy a house for us.
’cause I couldn’t quite buy a house yet in Houston. Mm-hmm. And I know I could kind of like make some personal dreams come true, not only professional while I was in Houston, but it could be professional and personal in Huntsville. So. To come. So that, that interview was, um, St. Patrick’s Day. Ended up moving back in June [00:06:00] of 2017.
And so I’ve been working with Mid-City and RCP companies and development and for almost eight years. Wow. It was a new career path. You know, I knew I was good at marketing in and gathering people and activations and. Making something come out of nothing. Yeah. Um, but now it was really on a community level and on a city level, which, which has been an absolute honor, the most amazing part of my job.
Yeah. So that leads us to, here we are now, eight years later. I mean, all the part of all the, the great
Megan: growth of Huntsville and. I, I love that so much because I don’t know that a lot of people are familiar with RCP companies. Sure. Specifically, right? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. They know Mid-City, and of course I know the CAM and they know the projects, but talk a little bit about RCP as a company.
Yeah, and you, I mean, coming in, I’d be interested to hear kind of where you were versus where some of the development projects were. And you’re very much a creative visionary, so it’s a lot of like. [00:07:00] Imagine if you will. Yeah. You have to kind of sell something that maybe doesn’t exist. Yeah. Envision something that’s not, you know?
Mm-hmm. So talk a little bit about that.
Lindsey: Well, and that kind of ties back to design, right? It’s, it’s an idea until it’s not and until it becomes, until you deliver. And so that’s why this whole development side of things has been right up my alley. Um, what a beautiful way to marry does. Mm-hmm. You know what I mean?
Does two things for you. Oh, that’s fantastic. I so honored and it was really the camp that got the, that RCPs eye on me because we knew we wanted something to. Be like the, um, the gathering place for Mid-City as we were gonna start building the entire district. Mm-hmm. And we needed it asap. We needed it immediately.
Yeah. And there was a, uh, music festival scheduled and there was, I don’t, there’s really no one spearheading it. And I said, well, I’ve got experience in that, in that realm. And so. Like I said, move back in [00:08:00] June, end of June, and the first music festival at the camp was in August, like Aug, I think it was August 11th or something like that.
One way to get, so it’s about six weeks. Yeah, about six weeks for me to like move home. Oh my gosh. Figure out what I was doing and get a music festival off the ground with, with our team. Of course. All held at the camp. All held at the camp. And when I walked out to the camp understanding there was gonna be an event in six to eight weeks, that it was red dirt.
There wasn’t a pole coming out of the ground. It was where the Lone Star Steakhouse used to be. So the Lone Star Steakhouse was down, but there was nothing constructed. So I was, I was thinking, hmm. We, we gotta build this outta nothing. But sure enough, with Max and, and the team, it was, uh, there was a venue there by, by the time, uh, uh, uh, the first iteration of the camp, there was a venue put in by the time August came around for, um, for the music festival called [00:09:00] Fireside.
And, um. Yeah. So that was really the reason why I started, because the event background and knowing that I could help get something like a, the place like the camp off the ground.
Megan: Yeah.
Lindsey: Um, and, and start telling the story of what we were doing. That was, that was the first. Understanding that the city in North Alabama had of Mid-City.
Yeah. Um, so that was a big deal. And, and I mean, look at it now, you know, if, if this is an official invite to anyone who hasn’t been to the camp, but it is such an important part of Mid-City. Yeah. It’s such an important part of where we gather and tell a story and host a farmer’s market and have a coffee and enjoy music and food.
We’ve had people that, um. I’ve had a first date there, an engagement and their wedding there. I, I, I just, I, I, you know, me and me from my event wedding background, just like someone being so passionate about [00:10:00] a place and so, you know, their heart is so into a place to, to do all three first state engagement and wedding.
That I just, I love that it means we’re building something special. Very special. Yes. Yeah. And so, yeah. And then. Not only was MidCity a part of what I was supposed to be working on, but all of the RCP projects, you know, really, um, tying us into the community the best that we could. Yeah. And, and some of my favorite things just throughout our entire projects were for Valentine’s Day, just passing out chocolate covered strawberries to people and just seeing their face light up.
You know, they’re kind of. Getting their day-to-day stuff done on Valentine’s Day, like we all do. And then I, you know, these tuxedoed men are coming and handing them chocolate covered strawberries just to say Happy Valentine’s Day. So that, it, it’s, it’s that, that those creative things that where you can kind of feel like you can make people’s day and that’s a part of my job.
Yeah. And that, that [00:11:00] gets people impressed and understanding where our heart is as developers. Yeah. Um. I, I can’t ask for anything better, you know? Uh, to see, yeah, see people’s mood change or make people’s day better or. Be a place that people love to come and enjoy and spend time with families.
Megan: Oh, wow.
Lindsey: Um, so yeah, so that’s really been the past eight years of, of my life is, um, making sure that the community knows what we’re doing as RCP companies and as a developer.
Um, we have more projects beyond Mid-City. Um, we, we built Whole Foods and we char the Char project over where Char and and Chewys are located. So emergent square merchants walk. Then all of mid City and city Center too, which is downtown. That’s the AC Hotel and the Eclipse. Yeah. So we have, we have quite a few projects and definitely Mid-City is our, is our biggest one.
Megan: Yeah. So let me ask you a little bit about the camp. I’m gonna go back to that a little bit because the camp, I feel it was an interesting, um, [00:12:00] interesting time when it would, and for those that don’t know. How do you not, but for those that don’t, I mean, what’s the, what’s the size of that property at mi? Oh,
Lindsey: it’s probably, uh, a little over an acre, I’d say an acre or two.
Yeah. The, the camp itself? No, all the camp, yeah, the camp itself, no. All of mid city is 140
Megan: acres. Okay. That’s, yeah. Yes. Yeah. And that it’s a beast. And that is that, that includes the ion U does. Which is huge. And there used to be a shopping mall there. Mm-hmm. A long time ago. They actually bought an Eaternity club.
Was, yes, I was pregnant. Yes. Uhhuh, like years and years ago. And they leveled all of that. And to your point, it was just red dirt. Mm-hmm. And then the camp popped up. Yes. And I think everybody was like, what is that funky, cool, artsy kind of, you know, uh, you know, and you had like the, um. The, uh, the coffee shop.
The coffee shop just made out of their shipping containers. Yeah. Shipping containers. Which again, you know, a couple of years ago it was, that was not something that you see and it’s not a common thing that you see in Huntsville. Right. And it itri reminds me a little bit, is it Austin and us, this stay weird thing.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. [00:13:00] You know, where it’s just this kind of funky, you know, kinda shit. Yeah. Just kinda shitty container park where you go there, there you go over here. Yeah. Mm-hmm. And it’s just, and it was taking, it’s taking a. Absolute ingenuity. Mm-hmm. And innovation and just thinking outside the box with the creative side of it.
Mm-hmm. And I, I’m, I’m curious because, and a couple different things how with the camp, it’s almost like, you know, to think about it from our world, it’s almost like the camp was sort of your brand guide, right? And the brand persona a little bit, right. What Mid-City was to be. Right. And you know, and I’m curious how you sort of.
How did you think through those aspects of it? Sure. Like what, what kind of vibe do we want people to feel when they come here, and how do you ensure that those companies that you’re pulling in help to kind of mimic that and supplement that a little bit? And like, how do you even start out? And, and I’m also curious too, you know, what’s the city’s involvement and stuff like that as well, because this becomes such a, you know, a, a, a beautiful spot and really I think is the epitome and helps capture the essence of who Huntsville is and a really unique [00:14:00] way so.
Talk to us just a little bit about that. Yeah.
Lindsey: Well, the design of the camp, the way it is, is kind of casual, kind of backdoor, excuse me, backyard vibe. Mm-hmm. Um, was a lot of the iteration and idea of, of UDA urban design associates. And so we work with that crew out of Pittsburgh.
Megan: Okay.
Lindsey: Um, so they, they thought through the, the, the initial designs.
And then we’ve really run with it from there. You know, it’s, it’s spools, it’s shipping containers, it’s found items. It’s, it’s a little bit, it’s a little bit rustic, it’s a little bit, it’s definitely approachable, you know? Um, and so it, it becomes this kind of neutral place where people can, can come casual and make themselves at home.
Mm-hmm. So. The camp’s nature of being a restaurant and a bar and an event venue and the farmer’s market location. That’s also Mid-City. Us being our own tenants. Mm-hmm. Right. [00:15:00] Yeah. So that is a way for us to. Be directly involved with driving traffic to the district and driving traffic by, by our own initiation.
By our own activations. Mm-hmm. Um, because it is our living room. It’s, it’s a, it’s our dining room. It’s a way for people to experience Mid-City in telling the Mid-City story. Yeah, because obviously REI tells their own story. Dave and Busters tells their own story. The Orion tells their own story. So where else could we, other than a place like the camp, so it really became 100% still is one of the most important parts of Mid-City.
Yeah. Um. The association that I’m the, the director of, um, we, we put lots of time and energy into the camp to make sure that it succeeds and that it’s a, it’s always a gathering place and we’re always doing creative outside of the box, things that really gather people that says. Because of my event background, I’ve always had [00:16:00] events, kind of lead marketing efforts.
Right. Yeah. I, I, I would say that I’m not a pro on like you guys on SEO and demographics and, um, data, data analytics when it comes to spearheading marketing efforts. I’m a pro in doing things that gather people that they, that then they become a super fan. Mm-hmm. So if something. Feels right for a diverse group of people, then they will feel the need to come and celebrate and, and, and ex and experience and explore Mid-City.
Yeah. So I tend to lead all my marketing and. Patron efforts with, with events and activations, how
do you, where do you get your inspiration for things like that? I mean, how do you know that, you know, shipping containers and, and Sure. I know there’s a, there’s probably different places you get that from.
Yeah. I mean, the cre and again, if, if you haven’t been to the camp, I mean, just looking around, I mean, every little detail there, it’s [00:17:00] just such a, mm-hmm.
Megan: You can tell that it’s very intentional and things are so well. Thought out. Yeah. From the creative side of it. And I love your, the, the point that you made too, about it kind of tells the story.
Yeah. Because it’s very immersive. Mm-hmm. It’s very experiential. Mm-hmm. And people you can touch, feel, LC, taste, all those things where you kind of get inspiration. Yeah. Not,
Lindsey: well the camp design is, is a conglomeration of. Of people. It’s Octo Hospitality who helps us run the camp. Um, it’s Max and the RCP company.
It’s, um, like team that really, you know, if we have a problem, we solve it and then we make sure the aesthetic matches the camp. Yeah. And all of our ideas, um, the shipping container was, was UDA, like I mentioned, UDA, that, that idea that those, that, that’s hard work. Taking shipping containers, turning it to a, a venue.
You know,
Megan: that’s like a beautiful pretty shop. It’s really super cute. Yeah. Like how you, you step into it and you definitely don’t feel like, like you’re inside the junior. You do see people walk in and kind
Lindsey: of
Megan: ah,
Lindsey: you [00:18:00] know, like work’s done. Yeah. Got a minute to myself, get a coffee, you know, have a drink, listen to some great music.
Come to the farmer’s market. So it is, mm-hmm. I can see it. And that’s what we would do in the wedding business. You know, people kind of, ah, you know, I’ve. Yeah, I’ve entered like a, a new chapter, a new zone tonight, you know, that could really celebrate and enjoy. And, um, so that’s what the camp is and, and all those ideas, all the designs that you see, the street art or the, the, the.
Collection of, of coverings or the furniture. We all kind of throw our i i ideas together to make that happen. Um, a lot of times the problem solving leads the decisions, and then we come up with the design after. Yeah. So, um, but it’s cool to see how far the camp has come. Right? So we, when it used to rain, there was no camp.
So now we have so many covered spaces where people can still enjoy the camp, even though it might be sprinkling or a [00:19:00] little bit hot outside. Yeah. And um, so yeah, it’s, it’s now, you know, seven, eight years down the road and I. Has become a really special spot in town and there’s still tons of people that are born and raised in Huntsville that haven’t been, or still discovering everything that we’re doing.
So how dare you. I know when we got, I’m like, where do you find out your information? How, how do you know what’s going on in town? We’ve been, we’ve been screaming from the rooftops for, for eight years, but um,
Megan: when I hear people that haven’t gone to the camp, I’m like, you absolutely have to go. Yeah. Like, it’s just such a cool spot.
It is. I mean, if. And there’s so many events to attend. Mm-hmm. I love the Farmer’s Market. Mm-hmm. Love the farmer’s market. Yay. I mean, all the stuff that you guys are doing is just so much fun. Thank you. And I love too, how you’ve even brought like events there, like not just concerts and arts and mm-hmm.
But you’re like G Beta. Mm-hmm. And the different events like that, I mean, hospitality Association, like companies are holding their luncheons there and their corporate meetings there. Mm-hmm. Which is a really cool, funky way to just get outside of the four walls of a. [00:20:00] Right. You know, it’s just awesome.
Lindsey: Well, it, it’s a great spot for really any event. ’cause it does, it’s, like I said, it’s very approachable. It’s a very relaxed atmosphere, backyard feeling. So yeah, it’s been such an important part of even getting like big tenants, right? So people that are scouting to have their business in Huntsville or at Mid City, we bring them to the camp and they see what we mean by hospitality.
They see what we mean, that we’re involved in that, and that it is an important part of. We’re, we’re walking the walk. Yeah. You know, so, so that’s the, it, it, it’s, it provides so many different layers to Mid-City. Yeah. Um, and. We have so many great tenants because of it, uh, because of everything that we’re doing and everything that we believe in.
So, yeah. And
Megan: I think it’s such a great representation of Huntsville too. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. You know, of who Huntsville is and just the culture that’s here. Yeah. Also, talk a little bit about the, I mean, there’s, I feel like every time I go over to MidCity, there’s something new. I’m like, oh, that’s, that’s popping up.
Mm-hmm. Our new restaurant, [00:21:00] there’s so many great things over there. Where, where do you sort of see next, the next year? Like, order some big things that people can keep an eye out for or look forward to. That’s gonna be. Opening out. Well, the
Lindsey: Orion is entering their, their fourth season. Uh, yes. So four years.
Yeah. So, which the Orion
Megan: is the coolest Yes. 8,000 person from open air amphitheater. Mm-hmm. Absolutely. Beautiful. Beautiful. One of the most stunning days I’ve ever been to. And like, we’re concert junkies, we’ve been around, you know, and it is beautiful. I mean, it’s just stunning.
Lindsey: Well, and what’s so neat about that is that the artists agree.
Yeah. The artists agree with you. They agree that it is. Hospitable a theme, right? And that it’s beautiful and it sounds fantastic and it feels good. And Huntsville is great and North Alabama is fantastic and we’re so honored that it’s at Mid-City, you know, one of the $60 million amphitheater right in at, on the site that we started building, uh, you [00:22:00] know, seven years ago.
Yeah. So, um. Uh, pinch me. I mean, pinch me. Come on. Yeah. Um, one of the most beautiful special places on the planet, if you ask me. Mm-hmm. And, uh, the team that runs the Orion is, is off the charts, and we love partnering with everything that they do. Mm-hmm. And, and being, you know, uh, uh. Amplifying, no pun intended, everything that they’re, they’re doing at Mid-City and how we can both play off each other on how, how important it is to activate and be hospitable.
They’re doing the same and we’re just gonna continue to meet and exceed the needs of the people that are attending shows and that are coming on site because we have a lot more to go. So, so we’re doubling the amount of apartments that are on site. So we’ll have double the people calling Mid-City Home.
Another huge honor that people are, you know, what we’ve been building for eight years is it, or is considered people’s home. [00:23:00] Um, I love saying that ’cause it is a massive honor. Um, and being walkable, you know, continuing to grow the farmer’s market, grow of our events. Have a bigger, uh, 4th of July, have a bigger, um.
Uh, crawfish Festival on Mardi Gras and holidays, you know, everything is just gonna, gonna continue to grow. And, and we’ve learned a lot over the past eight years. Mm-hmm. And we’re just building upon that. Yeah. Um, and so yeah, with every, every notch, every opening is, is, uh, kind of. Brings the whole district to a new level when Trader Joe’s open.
New level. Yeah. When Orion open, new level, when squeeze, massage, new level, when the apartments open, new, you know? So, yeah. Yeah. We just keep kind of answering. To the, the new energy of the district as as it continues.
Megan: So you being so plugged into the event calendar and all of the cool things that are happening in North Alabama, I’ve gotta ask, what’s one event in Huntsville that you will not miss [00:24:00] every
Lindsey: year?
I definitely
Megan: think
Lindsey: it would be the three caves events, the Land Trust hosts. Mm-hmm. Um, just because the venue, the music, the food trucks, the breeze from the caves. The atmosphere. It’s all, you know, benefiting the Land Trust, which is such an amazing organization if, if people aren’t following and they should, and, and Land Trust is dedicated to just in essence, I mean, protecting demand reservation.
Yeah. Yeah. 10,000 acres that, that the Land Trust has just hit last year, um, over 10 preserves throughout North Alabama. Yep. Oh goodness. So, um, it’s a fantastic organization. It’s a fantastic event and, uh, one of my favorites for sure. And then the farmer’s markets, this, any farmer’s market and definitely the Mid-City market, you know, that we host every single Sunday, 12 to four.
I am obsessed with all of our vendors and their commitment to quality and everything that they do. I, I, like I said, I [00:25:00] had, I had their, I had it for lunch. I had our sweet potatoes for lunch today that I roasted. And, um, everything that all of our ERs do are, is top notch. Yeah. So
Megan: Well, and you talk about supporting local business too.
I mean, what a fan, phenomenal way to do that, where they all come in with different things that they’re either growing or harvesting mm-hmm. Or producing or, and just a great way to give back to your local community and figure out like who, who are the folks here mm-hmm. In our backyard that we can really lean in into.
Mm-hmm. The farmer’s market is one. Well, I will say, well, you, you could spend an. Several hours there. Oh yeah. Without a doubt. And the food and the quality and the items that are there. So unique too, beyond I think what you would traditionally expect at a farmer’s market where there’s just so much variety of different things there, which caught me off guard the first time I went.
Mm-hmm. Um, but the farmer’s market runs from March through November. Yes.
Lindsey: Yeah. Margaret Teenth through November 9th, every single Sunday, 12 to four. Okay. At the camp at Mid-City.
Megan: Okay.
Lindsey: We’re averaging about 55 plus [00:26:00] vendors every single Sunday. Wow. And like you mentioned, they’re excellent. They’ve got great variety from ceviche to Wagu beef to.
Um, cigars to toys, earrings, um, uh, great bread, uh, just sweets. Uh, there’s fantastic. I just,
Megan: I mean, you guys also do a holiday market too. Mm-hmm. I remember that last year. That was huge. Choose,
Lindsey: share. We average about 20,000 people that come to that market. Oh
Megan: my goodness. And we have
Lindsey: 150 vendors for that.
Megan: Wow.
Lindsey: So, yes. And that’s the grand finale of the farmer’s market. Oh. So that is the. Final farmer’s market of the season. Okay. And it turns into the holiday market and that’s well before people start shopping for the holidays. And so we have a huge turnout. People come in from all over, there’s Tennessee and Georgia plates and not surprise.
So huge honor that people come in that far because of how well curated and how talented the vendors are. Yeah. Yeah.
Megan: So, yeah, and, and I will [00:27:00] say in case we didn’t hit on this earlier, um. Mid-City, RCP, the camp, you all do such a phenomenal job of the external perception of, of those brands, your social media, how you promote events, like if you’re not following the camp or Mid-City or anything.
I mean, get on it. What do you, what are you doing? I don’t know why we’re talking about this right now, this part on the interview, but you got, I mean, it’s just such a great. It just needs to feel like you’re at home and just showcases this different side of our own community that, you know, if you’re not in it, you gotta be, because it’s just, it’s, I don’t know, it just makes this place just feel like such home and you guys just do it so gracefully and naturally.
Um, Amanda does
Lindsey: a fantastic job. Um, social media, Facebook, Instagram, and then we have a great LinkedIn. We have a podcast too. Mm-hmm. So that people can connect Mid-City with the. People that are running the show. So I know that we bring in a lot of these big companies, but we, it’s our community that are working in those, in those buildings.
Yeah. Um, so they talk with me and they talk with Amanda and they [00:28:00] talk with all of our, uh, some, some of our GCs or general contractors, um, multifamily from owners to operators to business owner. I mean, it, it is. Fantastic. Yeah. So you get to learn more about the people of Mid-City. And so that’s, that’s one of our, um, our great podcasts.
Megan: Yeah. And that’s what makes it so special. Yeah. Most the people truly yourself included. Thanks. Million. Thank you so much for Of course, spending time with us. It’s been, um, it’s been an honor, honestly, to get a chance to just have this sit down and learn a little bit more about you.
