Quotable moments:

"I'm a first time founder. So every day that this company proceeds is the furthest I've ever been into a company. So I think, I think having self awareness is the biggest thing." - Dan Uyemura

"I need to prioritize myself and my health is the centerpiece of that - mental, physical, spiritual." - Dan Uyemura

"The programs probably knocked all that out of me. You know, addiction recovery programs are just basically like anything you have, you don't have control over - not worth your time, just control the stuff you can control." - Dan Uyemura
