Yeah.
So that year leading up to the Paralympics, I actually got this random opportunity to do a movie with Samuel L. Jackson.
Well, I had a TED Talk that I did in 2011.
Amazing.
And apparently my TED Talk is used by –
the TED organization to say, this is how you do it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I did that.
I mean, when I first started speaking and I guess going back to that quickly, I, um, I mean, that was the most challenging thing I've ever done at that time in my life.
Did you do a TED talk?
Okay.
Yeah, you'll know.
Just waiting.
Yeah.
So I kind of just jumped in feet first and made myself create the best talk that I could create at that time.
I put so much work into it because I knew that with a Ted talk, you could just get through it.
That's fine.
or it can absolutely launch you into a whole different, you know, dimension of work and speaking and everything.
