Yes. Well, there was this 12 month period in which Glennon was diagnosed with anorexia. Abby lost her beloved brother, and I was diagnosed with breast cancer. And usually we're, like, one of us is sane at the time. Right. One is a good ratio for us out of the three. But this, we were all out. And so we were, like...

In that period, it was so tough, but we were having these, like, brief glimpses of, like, clarity and wisdom. You know how when you go through something, like, super hard, and it sucks, but you're like, ah, I have, I understand something differently. I, like, have some clarity in my life.

But then you, like, stub your toe, and then you are, like, yelling at your husband again, and your kids are never gonna make it in the wild, and you forget everything you know. And so when we got to a place of stability, we were like, we would like to get to a place where we can not unlearn what we knew, however briefly. And so we wrote it down.

And a lot of the wisdom that we got from a lot of the people that have been on the podcast, and there are just a lot of stories that help us to remember what we actually know, but we forget when we stub our toe and stuff.

I feel like it's sort of the same reason we share everything that we share. I feel like we're all having struggles in our lives. we think they're personal failings. We think if we're struggling at work or in our families or with a health thing, it's like this private shame that we have because we don't talk about it with each other.

We don't realize that when we talk to each other about it, that kind of private struggle becomes revealed. It's just a universal condition.

And for me, I guess, I really believe that if we're able to share, whether with friends or family or, you know, with several million people on a podcast or a book, that we will see that, like, the things we think are private failings are not, and we can move out of shame and into solution. And if not solution, at least solidarity. At least, like, I, that...

also me and so for that's how I feel about sharing everything and for the breast cancer specifically women need to know the truth about their bodies and I feel like we live in this world where it's like There's all kinds of talk about breasts all the time. But we don't know actually about our breasts. We don't know what we need to know about our own health. And that is gate-kept from us.

And so when you gatekeep information, you lose actual wisdom. And so my desire to share about my experience was to actually try to connect with people who are going through that and try to give them information that can help save their lives. And we don't... And also, if you don't know the density of your breasts, find out. If you have extremely dense breasts, do not just settle for a mammogram.
