Patrick O'Shaughnessy

When I do these interviews, I always ask everyone the same traditional closing question.

What is the kindest thing that anyone's ever done for you?

I love the closing idea that saying something hard to someone you care about can be a great kindness.

A cool and unique answer.

John, thank you so much for your time.

Great to be here.

Thanks.
