Know When To Hold Them and When to Fold Them

Happy Friday, Cadre. Here we are. It's Friday, right before the weekend. Hopefully everybody's got all their stuff done for their week. They're feeling good rolling into the weekend. Hopefully you have an energizing weekend planned, things on your calendar that you're excited and look forward to that bring you joy, love, happiness, connectivity. All the things. A couple things I just want to address real quick. We have almost triple digit growth on our user base in the last, like, let's call it 48 hours.

So I just want to take you all through the app again, just so we make sure that we know where to find things, where things are located and how to connect with us and or anybody here at Cadre or the community. So let's. Let's just start real quick. On the main page, on your home screen, if you scroll up to the very top, you can always see who's live. If somebody's live and they're going on recorded live streams, that's right below. Those are all the recent live streams of the last week, two weeks, month.

You can keep going back in time, which is amazing. What's up, junk food junkie? Hopefully you have an amazing day. I know you're going to have a great weekend. There's no doubt about that. And if you scroll down a little bit, you're going to find all the content. When you selected those three topical areas, consideration for what your needs are, that's where all your content's gonna start popping up in the algorithm. Okay. On the discover tab. When you get into the discover tab, you have all the different wellness experts up on top, right?

All the different wellness experts. If you click on one of the wellness experts, I'm gonna go to Katie Donovan, for example. You're gonna click on Katie Donovan, you're gonna see her bio, who she is, what she is, why she's on her app, you can subscribe to her. So anything that she does, you'll always be able to track. You can also book now for coaching sessions. So. Right, so you can book now on that button and you can find all of our content, both in pre recorded as well as our live streams. So that's just one example we can do on the Discover tab.

Another thing on the Discover tab is all of our different topics, leadership, motivation, self development. They're all right there and organized for you accordingly. In the community feed, you're going to see all the different community feed posts. And actually, one just popped right, right now from Golden Heart wellness. Just as I open an amazing group of two women out of Arizona, we love you. We love your heart for the wellness space. You're incredible. If you want to see some of their content, they're as good as it gets.

So take a look at them. You're going to find team Cadre posts, right? As well as a lot of other individuals that come in and post on our community feeder. Otherwise, a part of Cadre or not anybody is welcome to post. We're always just going to make sure that we consciously consume great information and great content. So this is not a place to bash trash people. This is a place to bring people together and ultimately grow together as human beings doing what we love to do. So like you said, the community there as well as your own profile.

So you have your own profile within your own profile. You can change things, customize it, change your picture, all the stuff. When you go into your own profile, you can also view settings, edit your profile, things like that if you need to. And one other thing on the far left tab where you click by your name under Cadre right there, resources. Resources tab is amazing for anybody who wants things now and needs them right now. Need help now, get help now. Think of things like that. Also. On that side, you're going to find how to become a creator.

Maybe you know somebody who's a wellness expert that you'd like to refer. The process is really super simple and easy. You could also go to Cadre IO for those things as well. So again, resources, your watch history, your saved videos, all of that will roll through there. And the one that I got I can't forget on is feedback. We live for feedback here at Cadre. We want to build the best app for you, the best health, mental health and wellness platform that we could possibly build for you. What does that mean?

We take feedback very seriously. In fact, a lot of you that are listening in or part of Cadre will probably be receiving emails for what I hope is an opportunity to connect with you about our app and about our platform, to make sure that we keep getting better and better and better every single day. And we give you what you need and how you need it and why you need it to make it the most engaged platform as possible. Below that, naturally you'll find all of our social handles. Please follow along with us while we're on this journey together, which is so critical and so important.

My message is really short and sweet today. I've been going really hard lately. I'm sure like a lot of other individuals on this call, I sold a company recently. I was part of the sale of a company recently, which is awesome. The transition has been great, but it takes a lot of work. I have an amazing wife at home with our four children. Takes a lot of work. I have a startup that we're building. Takes a lot of work. Recently had press recently have this. Demands of LinkedIn, demands of this, demands of that, demands of life.

I've never once said this word before, like burnout. But I will say to you all and be very open and vulnerable and authentic here. Right. I had shingles recently. I have a stye on my eye. You can see how it's all swollen, right? There's just a lot. When you have all that stress, it can take a havoc on your mental state, your wellness state, as well as your immune system. And so I just want to encourage you all to not go through a process like I went through and not taking care of yourself. I always try to get my sauna, my runs, eating right, everything.

But, you know, the last week, week and a half, two weeks, you know, it all kind of got the best of me from the perspective of making sure that I take care of me. Me, number one. But I prioritize that there's some things that I did today, communicating with people, saying no over the weekend, saying no, rolling into next week to let some individuals know that I care and love about and trust that, you know, I need a little bit extra time for things, maybe with my family, seeing some things with my children that I haven't seen in a while.

Right. And so you got to prioritize you. You got to prioritize the people that you love so much. Right. And that you love so much. So I just, again, can't stress this enough that make sure to lean in to identifying those things so those words like burnout don't come up. But you can find that balance, equilibrium, and if it goes off scale and teeter and do the right thing, Luke, you need to do, like you said recently about having overload. You need to take time to decompress the weekend, spend time with your wife and kids.

100%. Right. Junk food junkie. And that's exactly what I am doing. 100%. And. But it's also talking to everybody else about the expectations of that. Right. Because if they know, Luke, of, yes, help, yes, help, yes, help, yes, help, yes, help, yes, and yes, and yes. And, you know, I need to just let them know that I am going to be taking a little bit of time to support not only myself, others, the people in my life that, like I said, I care about love and trust. So my message today is this is about that priority.

You're absolutely right. Junk food junkie. Depression is not depression. Decompression is real. Depression is real, too. Depression is absolutely real, too. But with that being said, I am going all weekend. I am going to love it up. I'm going to live up my family, love up my family and have a wonderful weekend. And I hope you do the same. So thank you all for listening in. Have an amazing, amazing weekend. I hope that little rundown of the app, a quick two minute snippet, real quick. For those new individuals and new viewers on our platform, some of that starts to make sense.

If you have any questions, you can always, always, always ask for support and or feedback to our team. Simply by either doing one or two things, shaking the phone, it'll immediately go to support. That's awesome. Great feature, right? The second one you can always write into supportadre IO. Helpadre IO. Or like I said, we gave so many different opportunities for feedback, either on our website or via the app. So please let us know or heck, type it in the community feed. But we're here for you. That's why we show up.

That's why we do what we do. Junk food junkie, have the best weekend ever. We love you. Take care of y'all. Thank you. Thank you.
