I’m kidding of course, in reality I didn’t conjure Gerard to show up in my life, however it feels like a huge “divine coincidence” that I had an experience with him. I definitely won’t forget anytime soon. There’s something about meeting the people you look up to that lands differently.

He’s not some famous person with this inaccessible aura, because in reality Gerard isn’t just a high-profile, talented guy. He’s human just like you and I.  

Something I learned in talking to him is just how “normal” his experience of life is. Like the rest of us, he has his ups and downs, and having him be vulnerable with me was inspiring and thought provoking.
