Monday Motivation: Check In On 5 People This Week.

Good morning. Good morning. Look at this beautiful Minnesota fall. The leaves are starting to turn. It's happening. How is everybody? Sorry, I'm just coming out of a little bit of the jet lag coming back from the United Kingdom. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Hope everybody's Monday is off to a great start. I just saw the notification, so that means we're coming. Hope everybody is off to a great Monday. It is another beautiful day in Minnesota. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning.

I just got back from a wonderful trip to the United Kingdom. It was fantastic. London. I was visiting my brother in law and sister in law, and they have a beautiful newborn. So it was fantastic that I got to get away to see them. It was a wonderful experience. London sure is beautiful. So much to offer, so much rich history. It's amazing. And also, I was able to check out this really cool mental health center, which was basically, like, on demand. Like, imagine walking in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, and when you walk down the streets of Times Square or whatever, you can literally walk in and receive mental health therapy, like, on demand.

It was just so cool to see. It was like a mental health store is the best way I can explain it. It was awesome. Super cool. But hope everybody's having a great day. Hope it's a good start. To your. To your week. I implore you, this is my ask. I implore you to reach out to five people this week and ask them how they're doing. I implore you to ask five people. Reach out. Ask if they're okay. See if there's something you can do to help support you. Name it. You know, in the last two weeks, I've been aware of four suicide, died by suicide and then two other individuals with attempts in a little over the last two weeks.

There's some, obviously some huge names and some not so huge names, but that doesn't matter. It's still the act in what's happening in our world today that I implore you to reach out to five people. So think about this. If everybody here reaches out to five people, and those five people reach out to five people, we will have asked over 100,000 people if they're okay. So just think about that. And if you do your part by literally just asking, are you okay? Are you okay? And it doesn't have to be much bigger than that.

It doesn't have to be much smaller than that. You know, are you okay? So again, I encourage you to reach out to those individuals around you, by you, with you people that you're close to. People that you're not close to, strangers, etcetera, and literally just ask them, are you okay? So back in the saddle here at Cadre after an amazing week away, it was something that just recharged my batteries, and it's something that I needed, desperately needed for my family, my children, you name it. I got to see my nephew Casper.

He was just as beautiful and funny and awesome as it gets. So back in the saddle, having a wonderful, wonderful week. Mental health awareness month doesn't just end on national mental health Day, which is, of course, the 10th, but it's an extension of that every day. So I just want to, again, implore you all just to ask other individuals if they're okay. And I think what you're going to find is the conversation might go a little bit deeper. And those deeper conversations fuel what I believe is, you know, understanding, purpose, deeper conversation, in order to just kind of find maybe the root of what might be going on with somebody.

So I wish you nothing but the best this week. Have a wonderful week. Lift other people up, of course. And this Thursday, Cadre has a big event in partner in conjunction with turn signal and Holmes Murphy for employee well being. Hope to see you there. It's going to be a dynamic Thursday event. It'll be awesome. It's right away in the morning from till noon. If you go to Cadre IO, Cadre IO right on the top of our website in the banner, you could click right there to be able to find how to come to the event, and I hope to see you there.

But with that being said, you know, seven hour week, with the change of time zones, etcetera, for our kids, myself, my wife, it'll probably take a few days to get back in the saddle, but regardless, today's the day, and I'm going to have an amazing day, and I'm going to reach out to five people this week, one a day, and just ask them if they're okay. And I implore you to do the same. Have a wonderful week, y'all. Lift somebody up and ask them if they're okay. Take care, you guys. Peace. Have a wonderful week.

Bye.
