It's a really, really important message for founders, especially profitable ones.

Profitable.

I personally agree.

For you, it sounds like the end all be all for your new venture is being profitable and being independent.

Well, sister, while you've been building this new venture, you have been going through a lot personally.

To whatever extent you're comfortable talking about it on the show, you're one of 567, I think, patients sexually assaulted by an OBGYN at Columbia.

That's 567 patients who are involved in the settlement, but potentially there could be more, according to some reports.

Oh, wow.

Which, by the way, I didn't go to this doctor, but that was my OBGYN when I was in New York, too.

Completely shocking when I saw this.

You have written that you didn't realize he was a predator until you saw a commercial.

What happened?

I'm so sorry, Gwen.

And your essay was so beautiful.

You talk about this idea, too, that you want your story to be a catalyst to harness collective power among the women.

So what is working with or talking to other survivors taught you about making your voice heard?

Thank you for doing that.

You're amazing.

You're truly amazing.

And thank you for being so open, honest, unfiltered and vulnerable.
