And I thought that coming from a vantage point outside of my own could maybe enable that, but maybe more significantly, I wanted the emphasis of my voice, which is where most people are coming to the book for, to be driving at the points that I wrote that book to create.

And we wanted to do the little interview stuff in between because we wanted to give those that had read the book a new thing. It's not just going to be what you've already read. We're going to give you a little bit more on top of that. That's where we came up with that format.

Who do we surround ourselves with?
