What you got? So I just kind of wanted to see, you know, at what point do you stop pouring into something? Especially when it won't receive what I bring to the team. The team sees me as a leader, but I'm not empowered to lead by the owner. I believe in the mission. I'm a manager. I have attempted to put a lot of things in place, but I'm kind of at a crossroads of, you know, when is enough enough?

Absolutely. So I was hired as the manager background. I've had 10 years of running hotels and switched career paths and got into wellness and health. And I understood from the initial interview that me coming into this team was to help build create SOPs and help grow the business. But as I've come into the company again, I had moved away for a few months and then moved back.

But as I've come into the company again, I had moved away for a few months and then moved back.
Cause I moved out of state, but I was still always helping. And when I came back, we're hitting our two year anniversary this week. And there's still no use of SOPs. There's no contracts even for us as employees. And there's just been multiple conversations about trying to create a background for the business so we can be successful.

So my question was, how could I help my husband set boundaries with his mother?
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, I know.
No, no, not at all. I think it's more of a I think there's some underlying is not with him. My husband's great and he cares a lot about or he worries a lot about his mother's mental health. And considering that his other siblings completely exclude her and dismiss her, he kind of feels like he's the only son that she has left.

And considering that his other siblings completely exclude her and dismiss her, he kind of feels like he's the only son that she has left.
Um, so I think that worries him and he doesn't, he, I think he fears, um, uh, her going to an extreme because she has been very extreme in the past.
Um, so I think that worries him and he doesn't, he, I think he fears, um, uh, her going to an extreme because she has been very extreme in the past.

And when I met her, I was like, he's being very generous. I do not think she has the mental capacity of a 12 year old girl. I think it's way lower than that. But the thing that for me broke the camel's back was, um, naming, we're having a baby, um, in April and it's going to be a girl.

If his mother went into these rages, his dad would kind of like pull her into a room and like push the dresser in front of the door so that she wouldn't act that way in front of the children. But he tries to kind of keep an eye on her. Again, it's very much like a child where... to the point where he has to remind her to go to the bathroom.
