Jason Adams? Yeah, that's me. Hey, my name is Ian. I'm one of the doctors here to embody. Nice to meet you. Um, something wrong? Uh, you're looking at me funny. No, sorry, uh, been a long day. It's nine. AM, Right. So here, let me take your bag for you. Okay. Thanks. And if you just follow me, we can go inside. Okay, s So can I ask you a question? Of course. What exactly am I getting myself into here? What do you mean? What was the reef? A She didn't really give me any details. She just said I should stop by. Um, I like getting a tour or that depends on you Will definitely show you around. See what you think of the place. If you end up deciding that you want to take part in the actual program, that means you stay on site for a little while. What's a little while? Anywhere between a few days in a few weeks, sometimes longer if necessary. Everyone moves at their own pace. So there's no real one like, hard and fast schedule way you could step in right this way. Wow. Big room, way. Do a lot of research here at the institute, so it helps to have some space. All this equipment, things is kind of like a sci fi movie. Know? Also, this stuff you could find in any university lab. Maybe not the same size, though. It's okay. I need to take some vitals before we do it. Whoa. I don't even really know what I'm doing here. It's nothing with needles or anything. I'm just gonna take your blood pressure and check your budget, that kind of thing, if that's cool. All right. Yeah, I guess that's okay. Can you roll up your sleeve for me? Sure. Awesome. Just gonna put this on your arm. That's gonna feel tight for a second thing. Okay, Looks good. Blood pressure is normal. So, uh, I don't suppose you know why The reef? I thought I should come here, Do you? Looks like you can ask her yourself. Good morning, Jason. Good to see you. This is my assistant, Joe. How are you? E You found the place, all right. It's kind of hard to miss e. I suppose it is. I overheard you wanted to ask me something. Yeah, e guess I was hoping you could explain a little more about what I'm, you know, doing here. Like I told you yesterday. Our mission is teaching people how to perfect themselves to the best of their ability. It's a comprehensive and multifaceted program. That sounds like something you need a bunch of yoga studios in the therapy room for not a gigantic lab. Well, there is certainly a holistic side. Tow our research, but it is just that research. We believe the scientific approach is the most reliable. You see, Jason, this lab, this whole operation, actually well, it started for me some years ago when I was struggling. I was going through a personal crisis, Nothing to unique or extraordinary. Nothing millions of others haven't gone through before me. It was a crisis of identity. Do you know that feeling like you don't belong like you don't quite fit into the life you've constructed for yourself. I would look around and everyone in my periphery seemed correct. Somehow, maybe they were thrilled with their lives. Maybe they were horribly depressed or unfulfilled, But still, they made a kind of sense. They existed as they should. But you don't feel that way. Do you you don't feel like you make sense. You lay awake at night staring at the ceiling with that one thought like a grain of sand in the sheets you can't ignore chafing against your skin that one thought permeating every moment you're awake. That one thought that one question. Who am I E?
