Let me set the scene. Peak Elizabeth Holmes. Black turtleneck. Billionaire. Genius. Silicon Valley’s golden girl. The moment I walked into that building, something felt wrong. They told me I couldn’t bring my phone inside. Naturally, I did.
You may not know this about me, but before I told stories through chocolate, I was a film and television producer.
And I was the kind of producer who would hang onto a cinematographer hanging out of a moving car as we sped across a border because we needed the shot. (I think this quality also makes me a great entrepreneur)
So when someone told me I absolutely could not bring a phone inside Theranos, I brought a phone inside Theranos.
And I’m very glad I did.
I have a lot of stories.
