Holly, you've been through a lot as far as the obstacles that you've overcame, as well as the media empire that you essentially have built.

Are there certain skill sets outside of just your personal skill set?

Are there universal things that you see that people can hold on to and

as a lighthouse to know that no matter what happens, they have the tools to still be able to overcome something as scary as, oh, something shifted.

I got booted.

My dream was deferred kind of deal.

Any sort of motivational advice or at least some insights there?

You know, I always say on this is I always say we're either going to live in a Star Trek world or a Matrix world.

The Star Trek world is a hybrid world where we use it to our advantage and adapt.

And a Matrix world is we're all batteries.

So that being said, hope we don't go down that world.

And for a bit of a balm for the listeners, I hear what you're saying and it's real.

On that note, for folks that don't have the entrepreneurial gene, what I'm hearing from you, because a bulk of our listeners too are within the corporate structure or small, medium-sized businesses.

The skills you're talking about though, Hala, those can be applied inside your job.

I have worked at places where it was like, I made up my own title.

I became like storyteller in chief.

You can do whatever you want.

You can take an entrepreneurial approach and become an intrapreneur.

So that's another thing I always want to talk to listeners about.

Don't just rely on the skill set.
