As a matter of fact, the early team that works together will remember that the mission was we want to get a million people to champion a billion happy. I wrote Soul for Happy, then The Little Voice in Your Head, which is my least favorite book, but most of my readers' favorite book. Then I took a break from happiness. Remember 1 billion happy at first was trying to explain happiness.

Then it was trying to address the reasons for unhappiness. So incessant thought was the first that was that little voice in your head. AI is the second that was scary smart. I wrote a book called Her about empowering the feminine, which I never published. And then I wrote a book called Finders Keepers about love and romance that I never published. Then we published Unstressable.

Unstressable was Times number four bestsellers. And it was written with a wonderful, incredibly feminine co-author that complimented my diversity, if you want. And now Alive is out. And Alive is also a bestseller on Substack. which is really, really, really probably my favorite so far because it speaks about life in the age of artificial intelligence.

But once again, they're all focused on humanity's well-being, if you want. And there I am. I'm no longer a corporate executive. I no longer have stocks falling into my bank account every week. And I've never been happier.

It's quite interesting that you ask this question. It's something I never spoke about in public. But I remember vividly at the time. I was rich. I'm not anymore, but I was definitely richer than I ever expected. No, no, hold on. I take that back. I'm filthy rich for my needs as we speak, but I'm not Google vice president rich anymore.

But then I remember I sat down, which tells you how your incessant thinking always looks for misery. I sat down. I mean, remember, Ali left. A is almost done with her university. I have reasonable assets. Everything's fine. And I start to put down the numbers, sort of trying to convince myself to be afraid, right? Like you can't leave Google. How can you leave Google? How can you leave this?

You're going to starve to death. And I'm like, how can you prove that brain, right? And then my brain starts to come up with scenarios where what if your car breaks and you need to fix it? Easy, right? What if this happens? Easy. Until I remember vividly that my brain then said, what if the US attacks Iran? And then that escalates to a nuclear war.

And then I found myself laughing out loud saying, well, in that case, I don't think your money is the biggest of your concerns, right? But isn't that how our brains constantly try to fool us? And then I remembered something I read when I was very young about financial freedom.
