Team Cadre- What is Cadre?

Well, hey there, everybody. Cheers to this Monday and all the energy. To those of you who are thinking about people on this memorial day, those family members and those of you who are thinking about the history of the United States and anyone else who has died within the history of, by golly, this planet that's brought us to this day. So this is. What is Cadre if we've never shared space and time together before? My name is JC Lippold, and thank you for taking a few minutes out of your Monday to share some space and time with me.

I really appreciate it. Every weekday, we take some time to not think that everybody should know what Cadre is, because that would be small of us to think that this thing that we deem as special to us should already be special to anybody else. So I want to tell a little story. I used to work for a company that prided itself on being open and available to the world 364 days of the year. They would put that in all of their marketing. They would say, we are here for you 364 days of the year. And they would shout it from the rooftops.

And I would go, why do you. Why do you shout that? And they would go, what do you mean? Like, that's amazing. We are here for our people. And I go, what people are you here for? And they would go, we're here for everybody. And I'd go, I think there's 365 and sometimes 366 days of the year. And I go, yeah, well, like, we're open every day except for Christmas. And I go, okay, what about people who don't celebrate Christmas? Or what about people who celebrate Christmas or. And are really sad on Christmas and are lonely on Christmas or morning on Christmas or are lonely on Christmas?

So I bucked the organization, and I said, d*** it, I'm going to open up our doors on Christmas. And all of a sudden, we had about 80 people who walked into our doors who were not Christmas celebrators or were Christmas celebrators and sad and lonely. And they said, thank you for being here for us. And all of a sudden, that company became cool. So I think one of the raddest things about Cadre is we're here literally all of the time. Literally. For some people, today is a powerful, positive day. The funny thing is, speak wonder.

You said, happy Memorial Day. Actually, Memorial day, in the way that it was, um, created, is not a holiday that we say happy to. It's a day that we actually hold in. In, um, in a different kind of energy, actually. Doctor Charisse, if you follow Doctor Charryse on any of Doctor Sharice's, um, social medias, like Instagram or Facebook or LinkedIn. Doctor Charryse did a really powerful why we don't say happy Memorial Day. And again, some people say happy Memorial Day, and other people say prayers to you on this memorial day.

And another cool thing about Cadre is we say there are many ways to wellness or there are many ways to honor the things that are special to us. And the cool thing is we're all right and we all fit. So the two things I wanted to share about Cadre today is we are always here for you. And there are so many ways to do the things. Speak, wonder. I am so grateful for your husband, my dad, who's wonderfully still with us. I think I shared last week that I took my dad on a wonderful little baseball trip and visited my sister and my brother in Iowa.

Last week. He got messed up pretty bad working on the missiles up in Minot during Vietnam. So I'm thinking about your husband, and happy Memorial day to you, my friend. And we're here for you today. And we're here for you every day. So on Mondays, it's professional development day. So you're gonna see quite the lineup today. You're gonna see my funny mug again in a couple of hours, but you're also gonna see Gene and Darryl. You're gonna see Mister Matt Tappy in a couple of hours. And my ever forgetful mind is forgetting a few more people.

But the great thing is, if you go into the upcoming live streams, you're going to go and be able to see all the people coming up throughout today. And if you miss anybody live, guess what? You can go into previous live streams and watch any live stream that's happened. And if there's a live stream that speaks to you, you can watch it again and again and again and again. So thank you for being here today. Thank you for being here every day. And can I proudly say, Cadre is here for you every single flipping day of the year.

Everyone, no matter what, all the time, midnight, noon, no matter what you believe, no matter when you believe it, if you stop believing it right here, right now, every second. We'll see you later. It.
