Clark Fredericks

And I said, hey, Gabrielle, I'm Clark Fredericks.

I'm on the show with you today.

And she's like, oh, my God.

And she puts me into this hug.

And now I get another whisper in my ear.

She's like, you're my hero.

And I'm like, why am I your hero?

She goes, you don't know I've been abused also?

I'm like, no.

She's like, yeah.

She goes, I didn't come out with it until yesterday.

From being on that talk show, I had a speaking firm in LA reach out to me to represent me as a speaker, motivational speaker.

So in January of 2020, I quit my job.

I was working as an assistant chef at a restaurant.

And they had speeches lined up from March till July.

And my first speech was going to be over in South Korea at an army base for like huge money.

And we know what happened in February, March of 2020, COVID hit.

And like before I even got off and running, everything got shut down.

And it actually drove that firm out of business.
