What is your version of that?

no but i you know i am struck we've known each other for a few years now although we've we haven't met in person until now and i'm just blown away by how down to earth you are like you don't have 19 handlers you

book your own flights, as far as I can tell.

Is this who you are?

Is this your character?

Is this a function of the late stage at which you achieved your success?

I can't answer that question.

It's kind of startling to hear because this is as good as it ever gets for an actor.

I'm sure you've thought many times, no matter how successful I become at anything I do in the future, there will never be another office.

Let's talk about Soul Boom a little bit because I was floored by this book.

I expected it to be funny.

It is.

I didn't know it was going to be this deep and this broad.

I feel like you're delivering a message that could not be both more timeless but also more timely for a generation that's about to enter the workforce or reenter the workforce.

I've been teaching here for 15 years.

I have a lot of conversations with students who feel like there's a gaping hole in their life around purpose or meaning, and they've filled it with ambition.

And that sounds a lot like the hungry ghost that you're talking about.

So talk to us a little bit about your case that we need not a religious revolution, but a spiritual revolution.

Did you just say you were grateful for having had mental health crises?

I love that.
