And that's actually where, though you also founded IVU Med, it got its start right in Augusta, Georgia. But you quickly learned that was a difficult place to start that kind of an organization. And how did you find then Utah and recognize that that was the right place to start this global health initiative?

So if you're starting... You know, for the listeners, the LDS, Latter-day Saints, right? Yes. And I think... You know, people who are not in the know, myself included, until I was enlightened by you. You know, I think of Utah as being much more conservative and not so international.

But Catherine, even at that time, think being a woman and starting all of this, right? You were the only woman, I believe, in the urology department and maybe even the only woman in

Utah that was a urologist at the time I think you had mentioned maybe there was one other in private practice but so again you were really a unicorn out there right and then starting this other different kind of program yes it was a bit of a struggle at first to some of my male colleagues couldn't really see why I was doing all of this stuff when I could probably get married and go home
