"My journey now will be to learn about myself and conquer my demons, Over the last year I've asked Lisa Bloom to tutor me and she's put together a team of people."

"I've brought on therapists and I plan to take a leave of absence from my company and to deal with this issue head on. I so respect all women and regret what happened."

"I hope that my actions will speak louder than words and that one day we will all be able to earn their trust and sit down together with Lisa to learn more."
