He's not thinking about his first job.
But he is thinking about school and he is thinking about how he goes about his life and about his daily habits and how he engages with things.
And so the idea of really championing curiosity, even from an early age, was a beautiful wake-up call in so many ways.
What I thought was really unexpected about this talk was the Uncle Richard piece.
And so Uncle Richard really plays a pretty important role in the talk.
And there were moments when I honestly tried to kill Uncle Richard, metaphorically speaking, of course.
But I kind of didn't get it for a while.
And Bill was really adamant that Uncle Richard was the key.
He was the key to the talk.
It was a talk about
how as a society we can all support the people in our lives to channel their curiosity, to chase their curiosity and to actually build a life of purpose.
So Uncle Richard, despite my best attempts to get rid of him, actually made me then think about, well, who am I an Uncle Richard or an Aunt Richard for?
And who am I supporting and how am I helping other people in my life?
And that was really unexpected.
I didn't think that I would get that from a talk by a VC.
The much easier path through this talk was just to be about how to be a better parent, about how to help your child to channel their curiosity.
And, you know, that's really neat.
Tie it up with a bow and send it off into the world and how delightful.
And Bill really, he really fought with me and I really was indignant about it.
I actually really welcome it when someone is just like, well, you're completely wrong.
