I was honored by the invitation to do that.

And that's not something you get paid to do or whatever.

But again, it's a format that I love and I've always found inspiration in.

So I wanted to take it very seriously.

And we ended up having, you know, he was a tech founder working on something else or whatever.

And he kind of stopped what he was doing for a couple of months and really dove into the ability to help me craft this story.

And this is a story of the seven summons and explores Grand Slam and sort of talking through my journey.

One of the first from a bigger public.

This is a couple of years ago.

We ultimately called the speech Change Your Mindset and Achieve Anything.

And it's something I'm really proud of.

But it's not the essence of the fact that it's a million and a half views.

I mean, that doesn't matter.

The part that I felt loved in was that in a moment of creativity,

where I had something I wanted to say but didn't know exactly how I wanted to say it and express it in the world, and Jenna was right there with me supporting me, a friend who has no stake in this, who has nothing to gain from this, just loved me and said, let's create together.

Let's play, let's laugh.

And we ended up, it started out as being like, I'll help you out for a couple hours and review a couple drafts and hear you say your talk once.

and ended up me, Jenna, and him for two months, probably spending 100 or 200 hours.

And yes, we created a TED Talk in the world that I'm proud of, but the love was this playful space of creation behind the scenes of us laughing and we cried and we got into real stuff, not just about me and my story, but about him and his story and his life and Jenna's life and all this.

And so I love these shared experiences.
