Overall, I found the reading very enjoyable. And down to earth, which is refreshing.
Until this part, that is:
> And you know where the founders of these big winners are going to come from? From this room!
Not sure how to view this part. On one hand, of course she's right. If no "unicorns" ever came from YC, they wouldn't be around still. But it seems to imply that all founders that are going to be wildly successful were in that room. That's either appealing to emotion for morale purposes, or way too elitist. Not sure which.
