Writing a book is one thing. Defending it in public, while the internet has opinions, is another.
This episode of Within Reach opens with a dream come true: Emma at Oprah’s dinner table among other bestselling authors, because Emma’s book is now on the New York Times bestseller list.
From there, she takes the tour to an intimate evening at Godmothers in Montecito with Jennifer Rudolph Walsh, into a homecoming in Los Angeles where Tracee Ellis Ross sits down with her in front of 1,500 people, and finally to San Francisco where the conversation gets real.
What you see across this week is what Start With Yourself argues for, played out in real time. It’s the discipline to keep moving when the noise gets loud. It’s what radical self-responsibility looks like when the pressure is on.
By the time Emma lands in San Francisco, her team shares that they’re concerned about the discourse online. Later, Emma’s guest Bozoma Saint John takes the stage to remind the room and Emma herself, that the strong friend deserves backup too.
This is the work behind the work. The part that doesn’t make it into the clips.
Tune in next week as Emma and the team head to Chicago.
