Sure. Happy too. So I think one important differentiator between our model and many of the sort of legacy consumer models or beauty models that you’re familiar with is this sort of requirement as having stores or being brick-and-mortar to have a constant flow of inventory onto the shelves, which is really matched up to where customer traffic and demand is. For us, because we’re direct-to-consumer and because we have full control over our pace of acquisition, we set that pace, we pulse that spend. And so what you’ve seen us do in the past is come out really swinging in the first quarter and then significantly dialing down and really shutting off all new user acquisition into the back half of the year and that’s why our first half has been so front loaded relative to our second half. It’s not because beauty is big in the first quarter. In fact, the opposite if you look at all of our competitors, it’s the opposite, 4Q is the biggest. And so for us to, what I was referring to is in the third quarter we delivered $97 million of, sorry, in the fourth quarter, $97 million of net revenue and what our 1Q guidance is, we’re significantly, we basically on a dime turned the business back on, which is not easy to do, and again, something that we have particular strength. And so that we really, really ramped up and we saw demand explode, which was amazing. We had been preparing for it and expected it, but it’s always fun to watch the business really rip. And we were so pleased with, Jan and Feb, and what we’ve seen in early March, because of all the repeat in our business, we have very high visibility into achieving our full year objective now. It’s basically, 2024 is basically in the bag, which is great. And so I wouldn’t -- I’m not -- yeah, I think, you may be referring to the year-over-year growth rates, which is not the right way to think about it, since we’re really managing this in terms of demand pulse, so we increased 44% on a year-over-year basis for Q4. It’s a much smaller quarter for us that’s almost entirely repeat sales for us in Q4 and now we really turned the business on, and we’re managing to try to get much closer to that kind of, our 20% long-term target for 2024, although we’re slightly ahead of that at 2022 to 2024, that’s the type of growth rate we think is appropriate for the business to sustain and we plan to deliver in that range every quarter of this year.
