Initially, I became a Hall of Fame speaker with no coaching. Wow. I had people help me understand the business of speaking. Yeah. But in terms of platform skills, it was all natural. Yeah. And people were like, you teach me how to keynote. And I was like, I don't know. Yeah. And so my greatness was not in basketball, but it's in speaking. And I did things instinctively. And I met a coach named Patricia Fripp, And in front of about 100 speakers, she played my full keynote. And she taught from it. And she was like, Walter, you don't realize that you're doing any of this. Yeah, because you are natural and it's very instinctive. Yeah. And it was emotional for me because she started using all these terms when I teach my student. This is what Walter's doing now. He's marking a stage. He's benchmarking. And I'm like, she has terms for everything, and I'm just being unnatural. Yeah. Yeah.
