YHC didn\u2019t have high hopes (It\u2019s a long ways from Lewisville).\u00a0 Lo\u2019 and behold, not only did Workbench succeed in getting Huck there, Hansel was also in tow!\u00a0 Without these boys, it would have been a lonely morning for TO, a Launchpad irregular, and YHC.<\/li>\n<li>Hansel was in the lead the whole time. He shared a story of when his M went into labor with their first child six months after the opening of his business.\u00a0 Hansel went into work that morning, gave his two employees the game plan, and attended to his M and arriving daughter.\u00a0 #ProMove.<\/li>\n<li>Story segued into the non-story of how Turnover didn\u2019t have a conversation with his wife about his participation in the 2023 West Virginia Ragnar 2 weeks after his M\u2019s due date.
