Jennifer Wallace

I just don't.

The most lovely thing you can do to say to somebody you matter is say, come to dinner.

And I mean, when was the last time somebody called and said, come for dinner?

And you said, no, I'm not really interested in a home-cooked dinner.

Of course you're going to say yes.

Of course you do.

And when you show up, you create a community around yourselves.

I think writing the book has really made me realize this.

Yeah.

I think the thing that we can do is matter to each other, is that my work matters to other people.

And the thing about mattering, which a very good friend of mine, Jenny Wallace, talks about mattering and she's writing about it, is that...

It's so actionable that we can do things that make other people feel they matter to us and that makes them feel good and vice versa.

And it's as simple as bringing a pot of chicken soup to a friend who's sick.

You're saying to that person, you matter to me.

Ten years.

She was writing it.

What resonated most for you, Ina?

What I love about Jenny is that she's writing the book because it's important to write, but she's such a believer in people understanding this.

It's really more about people having the information so that they can make their lives better.

And it doesn't matter whether it's 20 people or 2,000 people.
