So having to go through and repair all that stuff really taught me how to talk with people about what they don't share with other people. And one of the things that really touched me during the process of learning how to reverse all that is I raised my first venture capital round for Bulletproof. It was something like $8 million. And it's from Sand Hill Road, BC.
And one of the guys who ended up on the board, who I'd gotten to know because I worked for that firm, He wrote a Medium article and I was shocked when I read it. This guy came to me when I was working at the firm and just, why are you putting butter in your coffee? Like you're an idiot. And it explained why he tried it.

And when he wrote that post after they funded the company, he said, 60 days after I met Dave, I sat down in my BMW in the parking lot in Sand Hill Road and I cried. I'm like, what? Venture capitalists don't cry. They don't have souls. Like, I don't understand this. And I'm just joking. My friend does have a soul. And he said, here's why.

He said, my entire adult life, I've had crippling fatigue and brain fog, and I've never told a soul anything. And 60 days after I started doing what Dave said, I went through the entire day without losing my energy even one time. And it felt so hopeless and so impossible that I was crying because I've never experienced a day of full energy in my adult life and no one ever knew. And you look around
